Taking The World On With A Smile!

Many bloggers take a break in August and so too shall I. For the next few weeks, I’ll be Relaxing, Recharging and Re-posting some of what my stats say are YOUR  favorite reads. 

Here’s one from October of last year….

Just Another Once-In-A-Lifetime Experience

What constitutes a Once-In-A-Lifetime Experience?

I’ve been going back and forth on this for a while now, with my mom.….

…….and debated on whether or not to bring my kids.

But realized, this would be a Once-In-A-Lifetime Experience for them and me.

And my rather stubborn, 74-year old mother was not going to change her position anyway.

With or without me………………….

…………SHE was getting a tattoo!

Great job, Pepper -Thanks!

She – we, LOVE her first tat!

Not only did Pepper do a fantastic job on my mom’s tattoo. Everyone at Graceland was super nice to all of us. They let my kids sit on a couch close enough to be able to watch the process and they played Irish music in the shop while Pepper was inking Nana’s shamrock.

When I asked my kids what was going through their minds while Nana was getting her tattoo, my daughter said:

I was thinking, ‘Oh great, now mom is going to want one, too!’

So maybe that will make for two “Once-In-A-Lifetime Experiences.”  We’ll see.

Have you ever taken somebody to get a tattoo?
