23. List your top 5 hobbies and why you love them.

1. Quilting.  If I have to explain myself, you are on the wrong blog and should leave now.

2. Writing.  I love to write.  I love to express myself with the written word.  Two books under my belt, and two waiting to be written.

3.  Riding our motorcycle.  Well, one of them anyway. 

4. Reading.  I love to read… fiction, non-fiction, you name it.  But I ‘m not really sold on audio books.  I need to try another one I think, because it’s hard to choose between sitting and quilting and sitting and reading.

5.  Hanging out with my family.  I know, it’s not really a hobby, per say, but I love it.

I don’t know if I mentioned it or not, but I’m teaching a hand quilting class in October in Clawson, Michigan.  If you’re interested, check out their website at: http://www.cameoquilters.org/  The workshop will be held at Clawson United Methodist Church 208 N. Main St., Clawson, MI.

I am also looking for a location in Genesee County to hold a hand quilting workshop.  If you are interested in learning the hand quilting stitch, drop me a line and let me know.  I’m open to a small-group setting of 6-8 people in a home or church, or a larger group in a larger setting. 

22. Where do you see yourself in 5 years? 10 years? 15 years?

Oh my… difficult to answer!  But it’s just speculation… a guess at best, so here goes.

5 years:  Living in a different house, writing and quilting for a living.  One more grandchild than what I have now (hope hope hope).

10 years: More time to relax, not as much pressure. Doing some traveling and exploring… just because.  Talking into my wrist watch to send an email.

15 years: Doing whatever I feel like doing, when I feel like doing it.  Perhaps space travel.  Saturn might be nice.  I wonder if those are diamond rings?

OK, I really don’t like this question.  But I committed to doing all 30 questions, so that’s as much as I’m going to give this one!  LOL How can we possibly know what will happen in 5 days, much less 5 years?!?!?
