Game Sites and Hobbies to Pass some time!

[Pamela]

Hello Ladies! I have realized that I pass a lot of my time playing online games and such. I was wondering how many others do this? Maybe you could recommend some good games sites that are cheap or free! Two player games are great as well, ones that we can play with our significant others when away... my husband and I play on pogo, games like Battleship and Scrabble. We turn on our webcams and get to spend some quality time together while apart. Any suggestions?

My other question for you is what hobbies you have come up with when your apart? I need to find some new interests that I can limit some spending, so what better way then to ask you? I am looking for hobbies that we can do by ourselves or with friends, such as scrapbooking... thanks all =)

I'm hooked on Cafe World on Facebook right now.

I also play games on OMGPOP.com (I think that's the address if not google OMGPOP). I play my DS too. As for hobbies, I recently got back into reading books, got back into web and graphic design. I'm huge on blogging and I put making jewelry on hold (its too time consuming!). I'm the type of person who picks up a million hobbies at one time + has a "to read" book list + manages 10 blogs haha. I'm addicted to constantly keeping myself busy.

Hope you find a hobby and new games to play! DS is great for mini games =)

I used to be addicted to www.gaiaonline.com , until it became overloaded with young'uns. my favorite new hobby is baking right now, but I am also sewing together little christmas bags to put baked goods in for the holidays, and I scrapbook, make candles out of old crayons (so fun!), make jewelery, I used to scrapbook but there's too many little pieces to keep track of lol. I love playing games online sometimes, but I try to limit myself because it is addicting. I set my clock for 1 hour on my phone and when it goes off, I have to do something else for an hour.
if you want to try this, fin a shortbread recipe and an icing recipe, and try getting some people together to do a bake-off, lol. you have to design and cook your own gingerbread house, and then put it together and decorate it! my friends and I did this one year, we all pitched on a new set of mixing bowl and nice spoons, and the winner won them, plus we got to exchange one of a kind handmade houses as gifts. it was cheap, fun, and delicious, plus I got to spend time with some great friends before I moved to the base I'm on now...
