Is Your Favorite Hobby Your Best Idea?

in Inspiration, Question of the Week
This month’s questions are designed to get you thinking about what great ideas you’ve tucked away.
Sometimes the best place to start with a great idea is remembering what you love to do. What are your favorite hobbies or interests?
This question is one that I have been debating over for a few months now and is now keeping me up because I just can’t stop thinking about it. My husband always tells me to go get a hobby (he is an AVID golfer and has now turned it into a career). My dream has always been to be a mom- now I am to four beautiful (and still very young) children. So what the heck kind of hobby am I supposed to get. My other loves… cooking and cleaning. I am a weird one but these are seriously releases for me. I was about to apply to culinary art schools when I met my husband and then things changed. I am now contemplating starting a blog back up that I had for a bit to help me keep track of my meal plans and such. My sister-in-law was the only one interested. But who cares how many people read it– it will be my release and my way to grow and share. Thanks for the question. Now I just need to realize nothing can happen now and go get some sleep before my baby wakes up to eat!
Mary Kathryn,
Your husband is right – everyone needs a hobby! Finding something that is just about you is important for every women but especially when you are at the stage of your life when you are giving so much to your young family. I think your idea of a blog to share your meal plans and such is a great idea. When I first started blogging I mainly did it for myself because it was fun. I figured if someone else wanted to read it that was great but I got a lot of enjoyment and satisfaction out of it. Bonus has been that other people enjoy it too!
Let us know if you need any help setting up your blog!!
