Well still tryin to figure out this whole thing.. now the big opstical.. i have this amazing camera but the software to up load pics is some where.. well i don't really know where so I don't know what to do about getting pics up yet.... still a work in progress!!!!
back to the topic at hand. to get or not to get. Been thinking seriously about a tatoo, as some sort of symbolic notoion of all that has transpired
I want it to say " the journey" in hebrew or greek depending on how it translates. But lets talk about this for a moment!
The pros and cons of this are pretty close in comparison,, i know the whole youll have it when you are 30 blah blah blah but its not like im getting a cartoon character on me like mickey mouse. or what ever so.,. to get or not to get.. this is the question!

You KNOW what I think! Of course you should NOT get one...crazy girl! My brothers all have them and so do their wifes and no offense to any one who reads this...but in my opinion, they just make a person look cheap and harsh...even if they aren't.
...if you want my further opinion...let me know! Whatever you decide...know that I love ya!
I think it depends on the size and where you would do it. Some people have tattoos and you'd never even know it...
And it's fine thinking about having it at 30, but 70...now that's a differnt story! Have you ever seen that SNL skit "Tattoo Be Gone" or something like that? HILARIOUS!!!
I say don't do it!! Almost everyone I know that has one regrets it....so don't!
Hey girl, I know I'm woefully late on this, but I say DON'T do it. I totally get where you're coming from with it, but I'd say get a piece of jewelry or something, maybe a charm to put on a necklace. I know you want something symbolic, but dude, trust me, when you get to the end of this journey called post-divorce transistion, you WILL NOT want a permanent reminder anywhere on your person. It'll just churn up lots of memories, some good, some not so good (i.e. fights w/Mike about all the ugly logistics). You'll want to look to happier times when this is all done, and a tattoo will just keep you bound to the things you want to forget.
That's my two cents worth. I bought a ring to have on my hand when my ex situation came out to visit Coa in UT. I wore it on the second finger on my left hand so that people would know I wasn't married to him(who was looking you ask? I don't know. It was a just incase). I have since gotten rid of it. Everytime I think about it, it reminds me of having to take my stand and of that dork coming and wrecking atleast a week at a time of my life. While it was symbolic to me at the time of my strength and of the happy news that I was no longer bound to that bottom dweller, that whole period is something I don't need to waste time or energy being reminded of now.
So,in conclusion, I'd like to say that jewelry might be a good option. It's a symbol, but it can be traded later for something better or different, or just tucked away in a dark corner of your jewelry box when you no longer need that symbol of your strength, because you've passed through this storm and survived.
Either way, I super love you. :)
