KGirl - letting the past go

[gan]

Hey KGirl! I'm still around (sorta). Always great to see updates from an old friend!

So I recognised the same thing as you - few hobbies outside work. Although my work is pretty cool and I get to go places that a lot of people don't, I didn't use to have much to say when people asked what I do outside work. I recommend skipping the books and head out to some Meetup events. I joined a hiking group just to meet people...and now it's a full blown hobby with events planned and thoughts of travel in the future. Yoga...I joined that to manage the stress...and now it's a full blown hobby, looking for workshops and other ways to improve my practice.

And work on filling up your calendar. Like Mozza I used to feel like I was doing it just to be busy....but now I recognise the pleasure and joy that comes along with owning my time and filling it with things I like to do. Or not filling it...and just staying home and discovering new music or what not...that also feels awesome
