[speaker001:] well hi Nola this is Vic uh do you have any hobbies that uh that you really participate in
[speaker002:] um most of my hobbies include three three little girls
[speaker001:] oh
[speaker002:] they keep me pretty busy
[speaker001:] is that right
[speaker002:] I uh we're home schooling
[speaker001:] uh-huh
[speaker002:] so I um am real involved in learning how to teach and teaching and that kind of thing um I'm also we're expecting a baby in August so I've been trying to get some things in the house organized for that
[speaker001:] uh-huh
[speaker002:] and have repainted a couple of chairs and repainted a dresser and some of that kind of thing um
[speaker001:] oh do you have uh as part of your home schooling do you have any like uh handicraft type things that you've done with with your children
[speaker002:] um yeah we do different things uh I sew so uh I haven't had a lot of time for it for a little while but um
[speaker001:] uh-huh
[speaker002:] that's one thing that we do do some of um I
[speaker001:] uh-huh do you actually sew some clothes for them and that sort of stuff or have you before
[speaker002:] oh yeah yeah um I
[speaker001:] oh that's good
[speaker002:] have I can do lots of things and I enjoy lots of different things I don't have a lot time for most of them but when I do I like uh I like art I like uh
[speaker001:] uh-huh
[speaker002:] the sewing um let's see what else I can do you know lots of different things like cross-stitch and different things but I just don't spend that much time on it uh quilting
[speaker001:] right um
[speaker002:] I've made quilts for the girls' beds and things like that um
[speaker001:] well that's nice something they can keep for a long time and enjoy later on
[speaker002:] yeah something to cover them and keep them warm
[speaker001:] keep them warm that's always beneficial too
[speaker002:] that's right
[speaker001:] yeah
[speaker002:] um
[speaker001:] well I think most of my hobbies are I don't really have any handicrafts that I can speak of I've done some woodworking type things but uh uh I don't really consider yard work a hobby either I guess it's uh
[speaker002:] I think it could be I do a little bit of gardening
[speaker001:] yeah I do some of that and I I must admit that I do enjoy a certain amount of it I guess it's when it's a requirement such as mowing a lawn that it becomes somewhat less of a hobby
[speaker002:] yeah it's more tedious
[speaker001:] yeah but um I'm interested in music so I do a few things in that regard
[speaker002:] oh what do you do
[speaker001:] well I uh uh my children are uh learning to play the piano
[speaker002:] oh wonderful
[speaker001:] and it's been ages ago since I played but I still like to sit down and and play around with the piano myself some and I have twelve year old daughter that's far surpassed any ability that I ever have had
[speaker002:] huh
[speaker001:] um
[speaker002:] I would love for my girls to take piano lessons but we've been unemployed for a while so I haven't had a chance to do that so
[speaker001:] yeah and uh also there's an instrument of all things called a recorder uh and I I play that some just by ear I don't and music on that
[speaker002:] uh-huh oh uh-huh
[speaker001:] I used to play the clarinet and I still have one or actually recently just got another one and uh I play it from time to time as well
[speaker002:] you're more interested interested in the instruments then in voice
[speaker001:] well I am in a a church choir in fact it's that organization that uh it is doing this fund raising using uh uh the T I thing for that for that for that as a matter of fact and that's that's why I'm enrolled in this is our choir is doing it so that that I can pass a good bit of time and I do enjoy that a great deal
[speaker002:] the T I thing oh that's neat uh-huh
[speaker001:] um and I bike I bike ride I guess that's really the closest thing to a bonafide hobby that I have
[speaker002:] uh-huh
[speaker001:] just a sort of combination between bicycling and exercise or hobby and an exercise so that's probably the extent of my hobbies
[speaker002:] uh-huh I've enjoyed music too um I was in choirs from fifth grade on I think and
[speaker001:] um
[speaker002:] and uh had just a little piano a little violin I even had a little bagpipe at one time
[speaker001:] did you really well that's different
[speaker002:] yeah in in ninth grade our high school is Northern Highlands in New Jersey
[speaker001:] uh-huh
[speaker002:] and they uh they they just that year they began teaching bagpipe for the to put together group for
[speaker001:] oh you had to play the yeah
[speaker002:] it was fun it was interesting
[speaker001:] I bet that was that's very different
[speaker002:] yeah
[speaker001:] uh
[speaker002:] but uh we all enjoy music too um I don't know if they want us to specifically to do more on the craft side or
[speaker001:] well I'm not sure that it really matters a whole lot at all
[speaker002:] probably not
[speaker001:] that's sort of been my interpretation of of these conversations um in fact I think we probably uh have talked long enough
[speaker002:] yeah cause
[speaker001:] would be my guess so
[speaker002:] I don't I don't know how long we've gone but
[speaker001:] yeah oh I'm sure it's been adequate so I enjoyed talking with you
[speaker002:] okay nice to talk to you too
[speaker001:] and and good luck with your children
[speaker002:] okay thank you bye-bye
[speaker001:] all right bye-bye
