Getting a New Tattoo !

Well, I've thought long and hard and made up my mind . . .I'm going to see Sergio tomorrow .
I don't know how you all feel about tattoos,but being someone who's grown up with art, I like them.
Of course the design plays a major role in whether you look like trash or someone with a story, but, overall , I like the FOREVER ART.
For years , I have been wanting a peice to pay tribute to the "first" woman in my life ,"My Mother"

Trees mean a lot of things to a lot of people. For me, they remind me of the way we grew up.
The hills and woods of ( what Mom called ) "home". Being a little kid up in a big tree ,up on the side of the hill it seemed you could see everything.We also spent plenty of time hiding behind them , swinging from them ,and feeling the warm summer breeze as you just sat in their shade on a hot day. Just all around good times. Times my own kids are having today.
Simple pleasures are abundant if we just take the time to enjoy them.
( I need the constant reminder)
The "tree " also symbolizes wisdom.
( which is something you get, just after you need it.)
Mom was pretty wise for her young 47 years.
So for all the solid life lessons and the simple pleasures , For giving me strength to stand through the storms of life, Here's to you Mom.
We miss you .
I'll post some pics after I'm done

Have you heard the news?

Congratulations Michelle and Jeff !
