I watch a lot of Netflix and like to learn new things. I learned how to read medical code, how to rebuild a motor, and etc. Right now im learning bookkeeping and then onto accounting.
I've taken short courses from time to time including bookkeeping mainly because I'm trying to get a job lol. But outside of that I play lawn bowls or I'm always streaming something.
I'm a multi-instrumentalist musician, a former professional photographer, toolmaker/machinist, and general tinkerer. I occasionally visit local garage and estate sales looking for items I can restore and resell. I have several aging neighbors that I do yard maintenance and home repairs for.
Plus, it's not a hobby, but the fellow next door is 96 y/o and lives alone. We've been neighbors for 38 years. He doesn't get a lot of visits from his family, so I spend a lot of time with him, because I can see that he craves the company. His days are tough. Loneliness can be a sad existence. He's in decline and cries a lot, and I can't just sit by and watch that.
I don't need to. I am always busy and always going somewhere!
