http://www.myfrugallife.com/blog_snowbird49908.html my first few projects after surgery en-us Sat, 07 Mar 2009 04:03:17 GMT http://www.myfrugallife.com/post69036135_snowbird49908.html <p>I have been home from the hospital a bit over a week and Im already going insane with bordome. Ive been working of crafting alot and doing alot of cooking and thankfully my kids help keep me occupied but Im so use to just doing whatever. I will be able to drive again on Tuesday so that will be nice but still a bit over 4 weeks of takeing it easy ahead for me.</p> <p>My dog had to get surgery a couple days ago to remove a tumor on his neck so he has been my partner in misery.</p> Mon, 02 Mar 2009 16:08:00 GMT http://www.myfrugallife.com/post55906279_snowbird49908.html <p>Im generally not a crafty person but I had surgery last week and needed something to occupy my time untill I can get back to doing the outdoor things I enjoy. I decided I have very little patience so I didnt want to take up anything to complicated or anything expensive to do so I decided to try decopage. I went to a local thrift store and bought all sorts of things to decopage on like jars and containers and picture frames and etc. I then went to the dollar tree and got an assorment of stuff to decopage with like wrapping paper and tissue and what not.</p> <p>I ended up doing a few things and was very surprised at how much I like doing it and how cheap and easy it was.</p>
