I’ve decided to use my sledding experience… the one last week, where my ass had an unwelcomed interaction with the stump of a tree…!… as my first piece as a Performance Artist… who takes pictures awkwardly in the bathroom using an iPhone 8, his girlfriend’s tripod, and late wife’s mirror. I call this piece……… Three Days of The Moon: Left Behind.
Widower Notes n Thoughts:
- Sometimes life can bruise you up… sometimes pretty good. Just remember that bruises only grow for so long. At some point they plateau… stop spreading… and simply begin to change as they heal. It may take longer for them to mend than it did for the bruise to show up, but they do diminish over time… all the way to where you can’t even see them anymore. You may still feel the effects of the bruise, but at some point, you realize you’ve made it through the blunt trauma and frequent pain and are now simply living with the memory of the bruise… and hopefully you’ve learned to check for stumps…!

Yikes! That is a heck of a bruise and cannot be at all comfortable considering the location. Steer clear of the sled for a while!
(Nice title for your artwork, though!)

Oh my gosh, Maggie… it definitely doesn’t feel wonderful!… but it’s getting better. I’m still trying to figure out how to get back on the run! I’m thinking if I lay on my side in the utility sled… and have a bunch of padding… might be able to make it happen…!… maybe.

I feel your pain. Yoy might want to invest in a donut for your bottom.

I haven’t actually found a need to carry around the donut. I mostly stand/run around at work and home and have learned how/where to strategically sit at both of them!

I was horrified for a moment wondering how porn had slipped into my feed. Thank goodness it was just your naked butt! Hope you are healing.

I know! That’s something I worried about… I didn’t want anyone to think it was anything like that! Of course… I also don’t wanna get in trouble… or offend anyone I like!… it’s just a butt.
