#40 Nips are getting Tatts

Well, finally the day has arrived! I went off to the Plastic Surgeon for my tattoo session for my nipples.

I arrived a bit early & found the tattooist waiting & ready to go! That's a first, my bum didn't even hit the seat of the waiting room!

With top stripped off & laying on the bed, Meagan began by discussing the colour outcome I would like. Once that decision was made she began by testing with the machine if I had feeling in the area. It seemed I didn't when she tested one area on one side. But Oh Lordy Lord, did I have feeling when she really started tattooing! Especially on my left side, it was very painful. It took about a minute to do one then the same for the other side, I looked down to see my nipples covered in colour & I'm thinking this is alright the pain for that amount of time was no problem. Then Meagan tells me she will be doing that about 6 - 8 more times each side! Crap!

No really, it wasn't that bad, & all in all was completed in about 20 minutes. I was given my care instructions & had some ointment put on them before I left. The colour was a very strong pink/red which Meagan assures me will settle down to look more natural in a couple of weeks.Emptying my wallet at the door before leaving, I made my next appointment for my perfecting session where she will correct the colour & make sure all the colour is even & PERFECT I guess.

I left thinking I should learn this trade, 20 minutes work for the dollars paid, I am definitely in the wrong business!

#39 Father's Day

I know, two blogs in one day! What the hell am I thinking?

I'm thinking about Dad!

Sitting here watching a movie about loosing someone, and tomorrow is Father's Day! Naturally I'm crying because no one else is here & I can! I know my family will be feeling the same & so will so many other's who have lost their father!

I hope you are happy where ever you are Dad & it is like you imagined it would be! God Bless, I love you & will be thinking of you tomorrow as I do everyday xoxo

#38 Not so bad

Well my birthday has been & gone! I survived, who'd of thought!
I did start the party early with a girly lunch the weekend before & had a fabulous time! It was a rowdy affair, with lovely food & lots of wine.... Hubby kept us fed all afternoon all we had to do was a double clap & he was at our beck & call. :-)
We started with cold canapes, moving onto brucetta, beef stuffed cucumbers & a hot chicken dish (Cath made) finishing the savory food with a warm duck salad, deli sh! Cheese cake to finish!
The girls where a hoot & I thank them all for sharing the day with me!

I cannot post any more pictures as it may incriminate some! :-)

My actual birthday was a slow start. I felt a bit flat until I went to lunch with a girl friend! We had a lovely time & did a bit of window shopping also...

That night we had a visit from the Birthday fairy's & drank wine & ate cake! It was a lovely day & birthweek!

I wanted to thank everyone for celebrating & for those who couldn't be with me, for the calls, cards & well wishes xoxo

Thanks to you Gavy for making it such a special day! xo
