Lemon Wedgies?!

"Lemon Wedges"
5" x 7"
$60 -- at the "Off-The-Wall" Fundraiser in Jaffrey, NH

I posted over at DPW that I wanted to name this "Lemon Wedgies" just to be silly, but thought that people would think I just couldn't spell.  I painted this for the DPW's "Yellow Challenge" and also as a donation to the Jaffrey Civic Center's "Off-The-Wall" Fundraiser to be held on Thursday, May 24th in the 2nd floor Cunningham Gallery at 5:30. If you are in the area and looking for original artwork and to support the arts, do stop by.  All artwork is 5" x 7" and priced at $60.  I've never been, but I've heard it's a great event.  

And now I must get to bed.  I went to a different class tonight at the gym:  "Guns, Guts & Glutes" and nearly killed myself with an 8 lb. medicine ball. At one point we had the ball placed between our legs while we were lying on our backs and we were supposed to be lowering our legs to almost touch the ground then back up and stretched to the sky, lifting our bums off the ground (for what seemed like 100 reps but was probably only 10).  I was really trying hard, but I just couldn't stop laughing at the thought of lifting what felt like an 8 lb. hemorrhoid wrapped around my legs.  Luckily the woman next to me was amused by my pathetic attempts as she was having her own set of problems (but with an excellent sense of humor).  Kudos to all the ladies (many of whom are older than me) in my classes who are AMAZING and to all of you out there that work out.  I'm actually having a blast and determined to get back into some kind of shape . . . other than a giant rectangle.  Hope you don't mind my little updates every once in awhile. It's really quite a comedic adventure.  Tuesday at Zumba I was totally busting out my moves when I realized that everyone was facing forward while I was still facing the back wall.  Good Lord!
