It's great getting into something where you are fully immersed in the tasks and you forget about everything else. Sewing for you, hiking, biking, and geocaching for me.

My sister learned to sew from our mother and she has remarked several times about how learning to sew from our mom bonded them. Sister still sews.

Also, one side benefit from my knee replacement is that I no longer take otc pain killers. It was almost a daily habit for years and a great benefit of being without them is that I have control over my digestive system.

Getting off otc pain meds is YUGE! That's so much better for your health! Good for you. I think I'd be more of an outdoor person, if I didn't live somewhere that was too hot/cold for me 95% of the time, lol!

I love that you are getting back into sewing! Pottery was that for me. It’s so nice to have a hobby that is truly for the joy of it. I swear it makes time warp. I can’t wait to see what else you create
