Writing stories, knitting, hiking, sewing and helping others whenever I can.
I love writing stories as a way to relax my mind. I love to knit gifts for friends and family. Hiking is one way I use to relieve stress. I am teaching myself sewing which I feel is a necessary skill to have. I find joy in helping others if I can.
