| Can I asked if you have an exercise you like doing? How about a hobby? |

For exercise, I like hiking with my dog and bicycling, which, with winter heading out, I can start doing again. I also do weight training in the gym. I wouldn't say I "like" it but I don't hate it either. One thing that surprised me about it is how insecure some of the "muscle heads" are. They look great to me but are super critical of their bodies and I often hear them discussing tiny flaws amongst themselves "my traps are too small" "I hate my delts" etc. I mention this because it seems everyone is insecure about something.

As for hobbies, I'm retiring soon and looking forward to having more time to devote to them. My life for the past few months has basically just been work, exercise and doctor appointments.

I like mixing and creating music. I have a couple of physical synthesizers and about 30+ software ones. I've signed up for an online songwriting class so I can better at it.

I also have been learning Spanish. I can read it fluently and understand "CNN en español" because the announcers speak clearly, but when I go to a bodega it still sounds like gibberish. I hope to get better at that. My Spanish teacher is sponsoring a three week trip to Peru next February with no English allowed. I'm definitely signing up!

I also do volunteer work with a crisis line for teens and plan to keep doing that. It's all done through text now because nobody under 30 uses the phone anymore.

And I don't know if it's a hobby or not, but I like playing board and video games with my nieces and nephews, but they have to do the boss fights because I no longer have the reflexes for them 😃.
