On Hobbies
The last 15 years has had a heavy (and wonderful) focus on our kids/family. Parenting is a wonderful privilege, and out kids are still wonderful, but as they grow, they inevitably become increasingly independent… and so the shape of the time we have each week naturally changes.
Hence, I've been wondering about new hobbies for a while, and then this morning came across this twitter thread by Jamie Smart
