I love to walk but I am working on an excercise program that I do everyday right now. However, my girlfriend wants to walk as it cools off so I will do that too!

Hello my friend, excuse my ignorance but what are Afghans? You sound very creative! With the winter coming I will be actually going out MORE would you believe, I tend to spend less time outside in the Summer and more outside in the Winter. I have a few college courses going on and so I will be participating in hobbies as part of my courses, and now that I have found a talent for art, I shall be doing more artwork! I also need to spend more time reading as it was a hobby I used to love before the internet took up all my time!

The afghans are throws, warm blankets for your couch or chair, bed ect. I like to make them in all different colors. I like to give them as gifts. It sounds like you have alot of plans and so do I! It will be a busy winter! I am spoiled to reading on the internet!

Same thing I do everyday, sit here and work! I think, though, that I'll play some music this winter, too. And I do work on presents like you do. So you have rain in the winter, I guess. I get snow, lots of beautiful snow!

I really enjoy making them and they are great gifts. They are so warm and snuggly in the winter time and for naps. I was surprised at how much they sell for on ebay! I am not selling mine. They are for my use and for gifts!

We don't have winter in my country but we do have rainy days and cold weather too. During this time I love to stay home and bond with the kids, read books and surf the internet. And I also love to snuggle in bed and sleep when it's cold.

Your so right. Sleeping is just wonderful in the winter. It is a great time to catch up on all the fun inside activities. Appreciate the response!

Oh man, I love hanging out by the ocean watching the sky change these times of year. I also like jogging. Its such a great feeling jogging. I also play tennis when I can. I love hanging out in the cold air. I like to rock flip flops and a skirt with a hoodie because here in Florida it doesnt get that cold. Shopping and putting up the christmas tree, plus making cookies and stuff to eat is amazing. The family time is great. Ugh now you have me all excited about this season. I always see the season starting as in October! So close!
