So, in two weeks I will be moving 853 Km north to a small town called Kapuskasing to start a new position there. As my chosen profession is religious in nature, I will not be giving many of the details of the position. What I do need to figure out is what I am going to do with my free time, as they only expect 20 or so hours of work a week, and since they are providing me with housing, (rent-free, too!) there's not going to be many bills for me to cover.
At this point my plan is to try to finally get through my writers block that has prevented me from finishing any of the long-standing stories I have been trying to get down 'on paper'. (As I type them in Word, I'm amused that this term is still around.) I will also likely be taking up fishing and hunting on an occasional basis, but that will still leave me with a ridiculous amount of free time. It has been suggested to me that I might want to consider getting a part-time job while I am up there, but I am not terribly interested in doing so.
So, I thought, why not ask the Playground for ideas for a new hobby to take up? There's a lot of people here witch completely different areas of interest to mine, so maybe someone will give me an idea so enthralling that I can't help but to try it. There's only one thing about this that's making me so uneasy, the fact that everyone I've ever known and loved are so far away, it's going to make it very hard to see them. But I suppose that's what Skype and webcams are for...
