A Tale Of Two Crutches

Day 58 :: there’s spots still to be marked! I used my crutches today at work to “save” my hip for standing for 2+ hours at a concert tonight…soooo worth it!

Day 57 :: it was (still) a wintery wonderland out there!

Day 56 :: inside, it says ” I love every part of you.” ♥♥♥

I’ve had this card for a while… and I’m pretty sure I was wanting to be in love with someone special when I bought it. Today, I gave it (unused) to my thiefster (sister Thief!) who had the same joyous *swoon* reaction to reading it for the first time as I did.

Day 55 :: probably should've used my crutches today, but I've been having soooo much fun without them!!

I've been art-ing so many many things lately, most of which I'm personally totally in love with! The notecards above, along with so many other unique crafty handmade things, will be for sale in a week and a half (12/14) at Denver's own Good Thieves Press, where just $10 will buy you awesome presents for yourself or someone you love! And just think... "patron of the arts" sounds oh so lovely to say out loud!

Day 53 :: so so so happy to officially join the creative conspiracy that is Good Thieves Press in Denver, CO!!

Much loooove to the thieves for having me! I've been a big fan of the thieves and the gallery for quite some time - it really is a dream come true to be a part of such an aaaamazing creative family! I finally have a home to show my art, and lots of encouragement to be all sorts of creative outside of my 9-5:30...

Stay tuned for a Good Thieves Press tumblr!!

Day 40 :: now, more than ever, I’m trying really really hard to see things from all angles…

In fact, i feel like I was really tested today… I tried to stay pure in my heart and true to my beliefs in the universe. And, i tried really really hard to make sure the words i was saying didn’t seem selfish. Because I do still love you. And as a friend, it’s hard to watch you hurt yourself for a principle. Deep in my heart, I believe you are a good man. I see you struggling. I see you lost, lonely, and hurt. I wish more than anything that I could be the one to fix it… but it’s not my time. And it’s not my place. But you know where to find me when you need an ear, or a hug. No judgement. Just ♥.

Day 43 :: so, i'm not officially crutch-free. N ot yet. 30 more days of using my crutches as needed was prescribed today. Trust and listen to your body, the doc says. Alas, it's still a tale...

Oh, and the buffalo lives at my orthopaedic surgeon's office... seeya in 30 days, bubba!
