I enjoy coin collecting. My grandfather has always collected coins and I've recently gotten hooked. It doesn't have to cost a lot. I can go to the bank and pick of a box of coin (whichever denomination I'm in the mood for) for exactly face value. A box of cents is $25, a box of nickels is $100, a box of dimes is $250 and boxes of half dollars or quarters are $500.
Once I get a box, I go through and pull out the better coins (there are books to help with this or websites). I keep all interesting coins and try to fill holes in my coin books.
The coins that I don't want/need can be returned to the bank and put straight back into my account (though it's often better to return the coins to a different bank (not just a different branch but a different bank) so that I don't end up searching the same boxes over and over). So most of my money goes back and I can then get another box.
Some things to search for: wheat cents, silver dimes, silver quarters, old coins, error coins, coins with an "s" mint mark - they may be proof coins etc. There's always the chance of finding a real treasure!

Scrapbooking and photography. They go hand in hand. I love capturing memories and making them into great reminders not only for me but for my family and future generations. I love photography because you are able to hold an event or moment that meant alot to yourself or someone else. You keep people and places alive through your memories and pictures are a trigger. My niece was killed in April at age 5 and her brother (12) and I are working on her life book. It is hard but looking through the hundreds of pictures of her it helps make it a little easier to get her pictures organized and I mean hundreds. My family would tease me because I would take random shots of them just sitting or walking or just being them and they never saw what I did and using my pics I am able to capture them and show them what a see. Sorry I rambled, in short, Scrapping and Photography are great therapy, and it can be a lot cheaper than a Shrink!! :0)

My favorite hobby is CHESS.
I love to play chess and it is a very interesting hobby.
It is not for the weak minded.
An extra why I love it even more than I always did is because when you get into the KZN team to play for SA's you get to meet new people from SA and there are alot of HOT and SEXY CHICKS LOL.
