Ok so being the insane bat that I am I bought myself a violin.
Well it was inspired by the fact that my son wanted one for christmas. I was already ordering one for him so I though why not get one for myself since I've always wanted to play.
I also got my daughter a guitar it's a musical instrument kind of year I guess.
Any how I couldn't wait to crack it open and start practicing. I just got it yesterday. I'm glad I looked it over since if there is any damage I have exactly 3 days to return it. I still have to look over my sons.
But I am starting to see that this may become a distraction for me from getting chores done. I was going to clean last night but ended up practicing instead. I also practiced for a bit this morning but luckily this morning it made me tired so I am now starting on the house work.
But I'm worried this will be a new obsession that will skew whats important again. Like playing instead of being serious and doing required house work and other responsibilities.
I guess there are worse addictions out there I could be doing drugs instead so I should be glad right?
Well I want to get better not more dysfunctional.
What are every one's thoughts and opinions on this?

i don't think it's a bad idea. i'm a musician, and music lover, and i think playing can be as therapeutic as any therapy session. i just bought a new yamaha keyboard, so have been playing and recording a lot of piano. plus i have drums and guitars.
play on doorknob! music satiates the soul.
renewed me I already have too many hobbies as it is. And the list is growing.
It's just that with the ADD any excuse to not do work will do just fine. So practicing sounds a lot better than washing dishes. That's the problem. I need a clean house in preperation for thanks giving when I will have my kids here.
I'm also trying to winterize this house better since the windows leak so bad that I can't keep it warm in the winter.
So far I have two woppin' windows done. Wow great progress me.
