I Need a New Tattoo

Sis 1 here . . .

I love tattoos . . . Now don't get me wrong, I'm not all tatted up; I only have one so far.  And, any tats I have must be strategically located, because of the job I'm in.  I also think that tats should have special meaning.  The one I have is a fleur de lis and I got it in New Orleans.  Sis 2 has a matching one.  For me, that tat symbolized the beginning of the end.  It kept me strong while I was trying to get my shit together to change my life.

Now that my divorce is final, I'm ready for my next tat.  I have it designed.  It will be on my inner wrist . . . An infinity symbol with a double K entwined in it and above it, these words from Shakespeare, "To thine own self be true."  This is to remind me to be true to me and never lose myself in someone again.  It is my symbol for starting over.  I'm not stopping there, I need my dragonfly as a symbol of new life and my hummingbird as a reminder for my family that has passed but is not forgotten in my heart.

So, I need to get moving on these.  I could use some additional funding though.  Taking all donations.  LOL!

Until next time, keep it #sassyandsarcastic . . . .

  1. Like you I only have 1 tattoo, although I do the bookkeeping for a tattoo shop. Unlike you I don't have any set ideas for future tattoos. I always think I know what I want and then I chicken out.

    1. Barbara, I totally understand that. I didn't get my first one until I was 45, because I wasn't sure what I wanted on my body FOREVER. Cost is also a factor--I want quality and you pay for that. And my biggest challenge was pain. I wasn't sure I could handle it. Turns out, I kinda like it. . . twisted sister that I am. LOL!

      Thanks for stopping by and keep it #sassyandsarcastic.

  2. Sis 2 here --- when MY divorce is final I want a pair of lips tattoed on my left butt cheek -- 'cause he can kiss my ass and the left cheek because that is the side you wear your wedding ring. Please note when I got my 1st tattoo (I have 2) - the one that matches Sis 1 - he stated to our then 12 year old daughter "see your mother is just like a child and needs adult supervision at all times" - Fuck him!
