I have had a passion for Archery for a long time, and I barely ever hear of anyone using a simple bow and arrow. Usually, It's high tech stuff like crossbows. I have my own wooden bow, and I use it constantly.

My hubby and I have done archery for years. We do field archery and I shoot barebow or AFB. I tried target archery but I didn't get on with sights and goodness knows what else on my bow. My hubby shoots all kinds of bows, Korean, longbow, recurve, barebow. He's much better than I am and has won many trophies and medals.

Hand-writing letters is dying out, which is really unfortunate, because it's so much more personal than a text message. It's been a while since I've written a letter, but it's something I really used to enjoy.

I love letter writing too, but I never have anything worth writing to anyone about. Plus I don't even get responses when I send Christmas cards. I did live five+ hours away from my family at one time, so exchanged a number of letters with my dad, which I treasure.

I have a Senegal parrot. Friendly, affectionate, bonded with me, talks a bit, loves to receive cuddles and head scratches.
I LOVE sniffing his fluffy feathers. They smell like warm bread and clean cotton. He allows me to do it (and I'm careful not to trigger any hormonal behavior); but sometimes he's like "come on, human, aren't you done yet?" :)))

Flying gliders. I have been flying since I was 16 and have well over 2000 flying hours.

Organizing items on store shelves. My favourite is the cosmetics, candles and toys. Not my job, no, but I like the satisfaction. I also have a retail job working as a sorter and stock person. Got to reorganize an area in my department the other day. Mgr was pissed off with the mess the customers and other staff made. I jumped at the opportunity.

Enjoying absolute silence. No electronics, no people. Just me (and 2 cats) enjoying the sound of the world just stopping for a wee while.
