I looked up how to whistle on the utube and there was a English site that walked me through it and I can blast out a extremely loud whistle with my two fingers. Amazingly I have wanted to do this since I was a little kid. Now I am in my second childhood and I can do it! I know too much time on my hands.<br /><br />- CAB's Dad (he sent this to me in email and I thought it was too funny not to share!)CABhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06136954373860898166noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4775986830642858388.post-63477680640274894372010-03-26T07:14:30.609-05:002010-03-26T07:14:30.609-05:00Reading, jewelry making, cross stitching, photogra...Reading, jewelry making, cross stitching, photography, I’m hoping to add sewing as a hobby – one day.ReBeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01388085813894888204noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4775986830642858388.post-41041783394799271802010-03-24T20:33:36.237-05:002010-03-24T20:33:36.237-05:00Ah yes, starting new hobbies - I do that way too o...Ah yes, starting new hobbies - I do that way too often. Someone crocheted a blanket for Miss A when she was a baby and so I decided I needed to crochet one for each of the children - I bought a "Teach Yourself" book complete w/the hooks and so forth and TONS AND TONS of yarn and commenced teaching myself only to learn that I don't think it's really my thing. I did, however, make a HUMONGOUS blanket and send it to my sister during her treatments for thyroid cancer. For that, I will forever like crocheting, but for now and probably the foreseeable future, I'll leave the actual crocheting to someone else!CABhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06136954373860898166noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4775986830642858388.post-15931646778510052652010-03-24T20:15:18.031-05:002010-03-24T20:15:18.031-05:00I have many hobbies...my best is starting a new ho...I have many hobbies...my best is starting a new hobby and going at it real good for a few weeks, then not doing anything with it for a few years! Here are some of my favorite hobbies: <br /><br />Reading in bed before sleeping [yes, it most def. is a hobby!]<br />Cooking [hate following recipes though]<br />Sewing [hate using patterns though]<br />I enjoy painting ceramic pots and growing things in them to give away as gifts<br />Among my most favorite is crocheting. I LOVE to crochet and teach myself new tecniques. <br />Flower and vegetable gardening is also a big family Hobby. <br /><br />You have gotten me real excited! I think it is time to get my crochet hook!Melanie Hodgesnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4775986830642858388.post-10319592777045244402010-03-24T11:37:12.269-05:002010-03-24T11:37:12.269-05:00Seeing all that fabric in a row makes me smile.

All the "what-ifs" and potential equipment problems and so forth...no thanks - too much stress involved for me - what if you miss that one moment? You can't reclaim it....with a birth photog. it's a little less "out there" so to speak, but still...I personally, and this is just me, don't really want anyone else around at times like that :) and certainly not taking pictures! I do, however, know a birth photog. that lives down in Allen if you want her info. for your upcoming birth - to each her own! :D and I'm sure you can specify what you do and don't want pics of :)CABhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06136954373860898166noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4775986830642858388.post-25809827252089972782010-03-23T09:22:51.840-05:002010-03-23T09:22:51.840-05:00For several reasons I have been thinking latley th...For several reasons I have been thinking latley that I would love to be a birth photographer. I could make money and be a photographer. For some reason it's not as scary to me as being a wedding photographer.Courtneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12047552798671013377noreply@blogger.com
