1. Making a list of what my hobbies could be if I was motivated enough to do them.
But now I really want to spend some time doing things I like to do, but have no time for that.

Same here.  There are hobbies that I've wanted to do, but I struggle with motivation because I'm afraid I don't have any talent for anything.  Because of that, I'm afraid that I'd never get truly good at anything no matter what I do.  

Then, there's also the fact that there are a lot of activities that I haven't considered yet, and other things that I can't do because of money.

If they are just hobbies then talent doesn't matter. Its what you love to do, nothing else matters.

Hobbies are things you have fun doing, not things you're competing to excel at.




I'm super into cooking/baking nowadays.
 
Lately I've been really into painting miniatures. It's fun, but surprisingly expensive. Maybe I should have gone with the Faberge egg collection instead.
 
Lately I am working on my home. I am very excited at how I have been able to get things done with creativity. For instance.. I had flooring installed in my basement and they left me a metal cover for the area where the floor meets the door. It wasn't necessary in my space so later I used that to cover an ugly plaster wall difference between the plaster and the drywall.

I am semi into prepping and also making rugs. I hope to learn to sewing machine.
 
I love making music videos myself, but only when I get a good idea. I've kinda gotten slack about it in the meantime. I have one great idea, but not the effort to get it done. ****.
 
As in, when I'm not at work?
Music, video games, movies, and I read...a lot.
Most of my literary interests are non-fiction, however I do enjoy some fictional literature.
I like film, mostly sci-fi and horror, on the rare occasion: fantasy/dark fantasy.
I will attempt to cross-reference and historically correlate some academics to the best of my ability as per putting together potential theories and/or possibilities, though admittedly I mainly do this as a hobby because when I was a kid I was fascinated by the idea of witchcraft and magic and fantasy books and stories and the like. I even still like folklore.

I try to keep my headspace in a way that I am everywhere but where my body is actually standing. ;) . I even go as far as to train myself to do my job to efficient enough standards so that it's based on muscle memory rather than thought, that way I can be at work and working and getting paid to work, but mentally can be somewhere else entirely. :cool:  That's just always been my format for a distraction method from the stresses of life: Be everywhere but where the stress is, even if the stress is exactly where you physically are.
