well hi Nola this is Vic uh do you have any hobbies that uh that you really participate in
um most of my hobbies include three three little girls
oh
they keep me pretty busy
is that right
i uh we're home schooling
uh-huh
so i um am real involved in learning how to teach and teaching and that kind of thing
um i'm also we're expecting a baby in August so i've been trying to get some things in the house organized for that
uh-huh
and have repainted a couple of chairs and repainted a dresser and some of that kind of thing um
oh
do you have uh as part of your home schooling do you have any like uh handicraft type things that you've done with with your children
um yeah we do different things uh i sew so uh i haven't had a lot of time for it for a little while but um
uh-huh
that's one thing that we do do some of um i
uh-huh
do you actually sew some clothes for them and that sort of stuff or have you before
oh yeah yeah um i
oh that's good
have i can do lots of things and i enjoy lots of different things i don't have a lot time for most of them but when i do i like uh i like art i like uh
uh-huh
the sewing um
let's see what else
i can do you know lots of different things like cross-stitch and different things but i just don't spend that much time on it uh quilting
right
um
i've made quilts for the girls' beds and things like that um
well that's nice
something they can keep for a long time and enjoy later on
yeah something to cover them and keep them warm
keep them warm that's always beneficial too
that's right
yeah
um
well i think most of my hobbies are i don't really have any handicrafts that i can speak of i've done some woodworking type things but uh uh
i don't really consider yard work a hobby either i guess it's uh
i think it could be i do a little bit of gardening
yeah i do some of that and i i must admit that i do enjoy a certain amount of it i guess it's when it's a requirement such as mowing a lawn that it becomes somewhat less of a hobby
yeah
it's more tedious
yeah but um
i'm interested in music so i do a few things in that regard
oh what do you do
well i uh uh my children are uh learning to play the piano
oh wonderful
and it's been ages ago since i played but i still like to sit down and and play around with the piano myself some
and i have twelve year old daughter that's
far surpassed any ability that i ever have had
huh
um
i would love for my girls to take piano lessons but we've been unemployed for a while so i haven't had a chance to do that so
yeah and uh also there's an instrument of all things called a recorder
uh and i i play that some just by ear i don't and music on that
uh-huh
oh
uh-huh
i used to play the clarinet and i still have one or actually recently just got another one and uh i play it from time to time as well
you're more interested interested in the instruments then in voice
well i am in a a church choir in fact it's that organization that uh it is doing this fund raising using uh
uh the T I thing for that for that for that as a matter of fact and that's that's why i'm enrolled in this is our choir is doing it so that that i can pass a good bit of time and i do enjoy that a great deal
the T I thing oh that's neat
uh-huh
um and i bike i bike ride i guess that's really the closest thing to a bonafide hobby that i have
uh-huh
just a sort of combination between bicycling and exercise or hobby and an exercise so that's probably the extent of my hobbies
uh-huh i've enjoyed music too um i was in choirs from fifth grade on i think and
um
and uh had just a little piano a little violin
i even had a little bagpipe at one time
did you really well that's different
yeah in in ninth grade our high school is Northern Highlands in New Jersey
uh-huh
and they uh they they just that year they began teaching bagpipe for the to put together group for
oh you had to play the
yeah
it was fun it was interesting
i bet that was
that's very different
yeah
uh
but uh
we all enjoy music too um i don't know if they want us to specifically to do more on the craft side or
well i'm not sure that it really matters a whole lot at all
probably not
that's sort of been my interpretation of of these conversations um
in fact i think we probably uh
have talked long enough
yeah cause
would be my guess so
i don't i don't know how long we've gone but
yeah oh i'm sure it's been adequate
so i enjoyed talking with you
okay nice to talk to you too
and and good luck with your children
okay thank you bye-bye
all right bye-bye
