What's your favorite (sober) hobby?
All I've done recently (for many years) is drink.

Camping for a weekend by a lake, swimming, grill bbq & music!
I haven’t a clue! Any advice for a perfectionist?
Writing, gardening, running, tennis, hiking, exploring, Zumba, live music, board games, reading, book clubs, drawing. I would add play an instrument, but I have decided I suck at that. I’m much better at listening to others play.

Same. How do you get motivated?
I love to write, and my new life as a non drinker provides quite a bit of content lol. Also like reading, walking, yoga, baking bread, and all things sailing
I love this book Cofee Self-Talk it is amazing way to start your day and be positive! It really helps!

It took some time for me to find hobbies again. I knit and garden. Having my hands staying busy helps me.
Making music, running, playing basketball!
Houseplant babies!! 
Hiking is my favorite
But I like to; mountain bike riding, golfing, playing bass guitar, writing lyrics, hanging out at the beach, going to church, meditation, cooking/baking, cleaning house, working in the garden, build stuff…. 
oh and reading…
Surfing, woodworking, making jewelry, cooking, geocaching, skateboarding, mountain biking,
Wood working-wood lathe.and stay busy.meetings.
Writing Music! By far the most therapeutic and has kept me from drinking instead.
Walking, cooking, reading, talking to another alcoholic. Coming on Loosid, reading the posts and listening to others struggles, giving inspiration and advice if I am able. It does take time. Be patient with yourself. Hobbies will spring up out of no where in good time. Have a glorious Saturday!
I make beaded jewelry. Love to color with gel pens and cook
I try to find something to do with others- I find new projects at work, I jam with some guys and learn random new songs, I play board games with my friends and family, start cat-punting competitions- you know, whatever seems fun at the time
