The last few years in the spring I’ve had a few tons of rock delivered to our driveway. Then I spend hours and days hauling them down the hill to our backyard and spreading them. It is glorious.
Some people were born to do great things. Apparently I was born to do manual labor.
Gamify that shit, brotha! Even the most labory or labor things can be funified. But rock laying is fucking brutal! Take lots of breaks… maybe even an impromptu dance party?? 😆
Everything you wrote here reminds me of a ME I used to be. I used to paint walls and decorate in every new home I moved to. I used to buy shitty garage sale furniture just to experiment with refinishing. I used to have a horse JUST TO RIDE IT in a field....not to be all fancy and learn show jumping, etc.
Okay, so this one will sound so weird and SO basic. The other day I craved riding a bike. I haven't had a bike since I was a child, but it just hit me the other day that it would probably be fun lol. Also, CAKE DECORATING!!! I don't want to actually bake the cakes but I want to learn how to decorate them.
That’s not weird at all!! I haven’t had a bike since I was a kid too and have been thinking the same. I actually rode my friends the other day at the apple orchard. I stared at it for an hour and finally got up and got on it. No one knew I hadn’t rode a bike since I was a tween. It was sooo fun and felt so good. I only went in circles but it’s a start. 😂 rent one or borrow one and DO IT!! The cake decorating sounds epic too. Do you have any friends who can bake it for you??
Fuck yes. I think dancing tango has saved my ass and my wellbeing (and probably some other people's lives in my general vicinity) more times than I'd care to count.
I’d love to learn some shuffle. Not as many guys learn it, but that’s because most of them are pansies that are afraid what someone might think. Plus it’s a lot of work and goes against the inherent laziness.
I judge pansies soooo hard! All the dudes that wallflower it up instead dance are dead to me. 😂 it should be required class for all men over 40. If we’d live closer I’d force you to learn with me. 😃 Dance it so much better with other people. 💃

The joy is in the act itself: solitary, good exercise, headphones for music and podcasts, booze after …..what else could a man want?!?
Or woman! Well, I may want a mister, too, but I’m admittedly high maintenance like that. 😂

I support your hobby mission!!
Thanks, gurl! Do you have any new weird shit you crave? It’s fucking wild that I haven’t had a hobby in almost 20 years. 😳

Yah I might go ride a bike. My curly hair could use a breeze to fly in!
And as for cakes, I think there are courses for decorating where they bake and we just play. I should look into that 😁
DO IT!! It’ll be so good for the soul. 🥰
I want abs too... I always wanted them, but they hide...
The struggle and dream is real!
Fuck yes. I think dancing tango has saved my ass and my wellbeing (and probably some other people's lives in my general vicinity) more times than I'd care to count.
You tango?? OMG, I’m so jealous! I wanna learn that one, too! Dancing is by far the best therapy I know of.
It’s pretty incredible, actually, how good dancing is for us. I want to hear about it if you ever try tangoing!
I will! I’m hoping someday someone offers Latin classes here. It’s so rural though, it’s mostly line dancing. 😂
The stabby knitting … 🤣
Girl, you need to make scavenger hunts for adults. Outside. Feral. Sell them. Adventure on!
Omg, that would be sooo fun! And sooo up my alley.
Box it up as a holiday gift for people. Do it!
Yesss! Thats a timeline I can work with too. 🥳
We’re taking this offline. Voxering you.

Maybe we will have to do it anyway. Long distance dance buddies
Dude, yessss!! We must have recital, too. 😂😂
