I really like this thread also. Having hobbies again is one of the biggest rewards of sobriety to me. There were so many things I enjoyed especially outdoors related that I either barely did or gave up on when I was drinking.

When drinking I would think about all the things I was going to do over the weekend during the sober work week, but come Friday I would drink afterwork and start early Saturday morning which frequently meant all plans were off.

One of my old hobbies that I've started up again is fishing. I don't take it too seriously because just being out near a lake, stream, or river with my dog is more of the experience and purpose than actually catching a fish.
