Last night I took a class on perfumery and am thinking about moving from wine into that. More classes scheduled. We'll see. I'm getting tired of the wine business.
I played in a band regularly for years, and then had a family and decided I needed a hobby that I could do more often at home, so I started brewing beer.
I brewed beer as a regular hobby for some ten years or so. At some point, I decided I was drinking way too much and needed to try something else.
Since then, I've had temporary replacements, like converting old reel-to-reel tapes from my Dad's band to digital, but nothing sustainable for more than a few months. I also tried making hot sauces for a while, but that didn't take (the local folks who are good at it are way better than me). I also tried getting back into the songwriting/band stuff. Others are way better at it than me. I'm too self-conscious to get back into it.
Anyway, definitely check out your new interests. And as many of them as possible. You never know what's gonna stick.
Also, I post too often on here. Sorry for that.
