Want to hear something shocking?

I have hobbies again.

I know, right? Between school, working on the house, a new job, a two year old, and books coming out, I’d just about forgotten what hobbies were.

I mean, doing something just for the pure enjoyment of it? What’s that like??

But, thankfully, my life has slowed down since we’ve moved, and I have been able to sink back into a few of my obsessions.

Cross stitching, for instance.

This is my latest finished project. My mum gave it to me in hopes that I would stitch it for her, and I’ve been working on it in the corners of my life for the past few years.

She framed it with lace.

I’m completely in love.

I’ve got a new project in the works now that will be shared here eventually, when there’s actually something to see. But trust me. It’s gorgeous.

And complicated.

I can’t wait.

What kind of hobbies has 2025 brought your way? Tell me about them in the comments!
