CREATING A DAY OFF

I had the day off today with no kids...well until the evening. Although I could think of several things to do..clean, read a book, orgainze the basement...one particular idea lit up in my noggin.

I am especially fond of sentimental gifts and try to make them as often as I can for people. This year being so tight on money I have decided to do some collouges using some frames I picked up from my good friend Ashley Gates' garage sale. So I got Vanny off to safety patrol by 7:30, came home had my diet Dr. P and then did some turbo Jam (20 lbs weight loss goal by 2/10) and set up my craft table. The one thing I love so much about crafting is I get very intense and focused and it;s extremely thereputical for me...didn't realize how much I missed it. My back hurts more though, which is not a positive.

I decided to use the lyrics from Forever Young by Rod Stewart and I am very pleased with how it turned out. Now I have to do Sydney's (haven't picked a song yet), and my sissy were I will be using the lyrics from Dave Matthew's song Sister, such a lovely song. Then for everyone else I am going to Photoshop some picture into Lichtenberg pop style and frame them. Should be cool I think. So there you have it, one project down..many to go.
