Hobbies that ease the daily grind

Lately, I've been reading a lot of fantastic blogs.  I binged Cait Flanders until she stopped; https://caitflanders.com and now I get her updates via email and follow her on Instagram. I read David Cain's raptitude regularly; https://www.raptitude.com and I recently stumbled on New Escapologist; http://newescapologist.co.uk/.  I find them all inspiring.  I'm fascinated with the idea of leaving the grind.  I struggle with 9 to 5. I am well aware that time is precious.   I want every moment to count. However, I am not one to jump on the bandwagon.  Life is complicated and requires a great deal of analysis and consideration.  Work serves a purpose. Work provides stability and structure in a chaotic world.  I am not drinking the Kool-Aid but I am interested in thinking outside the box. Obligation is the stuff that makes up a life. It took me a long time to get here.  I'm just starting to consider other options.

So I think I would like to talk about the hobbies that get me through and maybe relate them to how life works from my perspective. Books,  movies, HBO, travelling and of course my beloved Raptors.  Tonight I will be tuning in at 830 PM, bells ringing. N and I found a new show on Netflix.  Rita.
Very cutting edge if you dig Scandinavian culture. My son and I are gradually working our way through Fargo, we just wrapped up Shameless.  I think tonight will be a good night.
