My Bee

Hello friends,

This post has absolutely nothing to do with writing...well, almost.  What I did last night will shock those who know me;  Heck, I shocked myself!

Last night, I got a tattoo!  Yes, folks, my very first - and only - tattoo.  The truly great thing is that it was done by my very own daughter, Nat, who is a tattoo artist with The Skin Within in Cornwall, Ontario Canada.  And what a great job she did!



Was it painful, you may ask?  Let  me explain it this way... Because I wanted the tattoo to be hidden from the world, I asked that she do it on top of my foot.  In fairness to Nat, she warned me the top of the foot was just about the most painful area on the body to get tattooed, but I insisted.  Mother knows best, right?  Wrong!  It hurt like the devil.

The reason I chose a bee is because my husband of thirty-eight years has always called me Bee.  In the picture, you'll see the bee is holding a quill.  That was Nat's interpretation of me as an author.

But the pain was definitely worth it and I would do it all over again - if I had to, which I won't!  LOL
