Cooking dinner..what are some hobbies you’ve enjoyed/are looking forward to exploring in recovery ?
Learning Spanish. Improving my Excel skills. Better at organization.
Awesome...being multi-lingual is such a strength. I think it’s cool how many more people we’re able to communicate with having that tool in our belt !
I've appreciated reading for pleasure again. Couldn't focus or remember what I was reading when using. It's been nice to reconnect with something I enjoyed in the past😊 Great question and hope you are finding some new interests or joys along the way!
Like the gentleman above me said, "Reading for pleasure." It's nice to find yourself so immersed in a book that you want to keep flipping the pages. I am used to reading technical manuals and electrical schematics. I have also gone back to school, still in one class. I became a certified personal trainer, started a business, and also help coach my daughters volleyball team. I need things to keep myself busy or I end up in my head which is usually not awesome...
It really is. It's hard knowing that people are being rude in their native language and assume I don't understand. I keep quiet because I don't like drama. Some days I want to let them know I know what they're talking about.
Josh & Kevin, agreed reading is an awesome healthy method of escapism (that’s one of the things I like about it). Such a good tool to stimulate our brains ! That’s awesome you’ve become a personal trainer, something I’ve been considering as well ! Hope you both have a great day.
Haha yes I love the surprised look when people realize you can understand them !
