[speaker001:] so that the topic is hobbies
[speaker002:] in your spare time
[speaker001:] yeah who has spare time um I don't really don't really do any handicraft things like that I used to I used to do like salt dough ornaments and things
[speaker002:] uh-huh
[speaker001:] but that was oh good many many years ago and I have I really my spare time I usually go do aerobics and
[speaker002:] yeah
[speaker001:] read and that's about it
[speaker002:] yeah yeah I understand that I'm you know I work full time and I have two kids so my spare time usually involves something with the kids yeah you know hobbies we I I can't really say that we have hobbies it's more like maybe
[speaker001:] yeah
[speaker002:] projects or something on the weekend you know we like to go out go out
[speaker001:] yeah family well well that's what I meant by salt that we we did that like as a family little ornaments and things like that and just kind of really got into it like during the Christmas season making them up for other people and things like that but
[speaker002:] oh uh-huh right um-hum
[speaker001:] as far as I've just never been very skilled at far you know needle work wise and the things I've tried to do just don't look very good and
[speaker002:] uh uh-huh I've I guess mostly as far as as crafts go I've done um some needlepoint and I've done mostly cross stitching I used to uh do like um one that I did for both kids are like oh they're plaques with you know different kind of animals and then you have their birth date on them and then you have a little picture of them and you frame them and stuff but nothing steady just
[speaker001:] yeah um-hum
[speaker002:] when I get some spare time here and there I'll work on it but you know it's nothing that I can really
[speaker001:] it's not like you sit and knit every night yeah I don't even know how to knit and my mother used to knit you know all the time and and I don't even know how to knit and I'm like that's a lost art from this family
[speaker002:] no not at all uh-huh  yeah
[speaker001:] so um but it's not a very good topic it feels like if you know not when you're neither neither one of us are really
[speaker002:] no
[speaker001:] I I have seen things I really like you know that were done
[speaker002:] uh-huh
[speaker001:] especially like needlepoint needlepoint cushions and things but it just seems like there'd be so much time involved in it you know that and that the petty point and things like that it's like God it just just seems like it's
[speaker002:] yeah yeah
[speaker001:] easier just to go out and buy it already made
[speaker002:] I don't know what what what is it's like there but here a lot of the country stuff is in you know lot of the woodwork a lot of uh stenciling
[speaker001:] yeah
[speaker002:] and you know you can go to any like a flea market and stuff and there's just tons of stuff everywhere and
[speaker001:] yeah
[speaker002:] you know people just do it in their garage and then on weekends they go out and sell it and during the week they go back and do some more
[speaker001:] and see they do that as their job whereas you know for us it and they make it cheaper for us to buy so
[speaker002:] right yeah definitely
[speaker001:] but and I I mean I'm sure it must be relaxing to do things like that because I can remember when I used to do you know those little salt dough figurines and things it was it was relaxing you know creative you felt very creative
[speaker002:] um-hum
[speaker001:] but it just was so time time involved you know so much time involved and the different steps and things
[speaker002:] yeah um-hum
[speaker001:] so and
[speaker002:] okay well I think I think we're okay I think we did done five minutes so we don't have to keep talking about nothing anymore okay well thank you
[speaker001:] yeah so okay I hope you have a good rest of your weekend okay bye-bye
[speaker002:] thanks bye-bye
