In my late teens and early 20′s, when most young adults are going through that rebellious or ‘find myself’ stage, I was already married and far more settled than most people my age. I’ve never lived by myself. I literally moved out of my dad’s house the day I got married and moved into an apartment with my husband. Jason being 6 years my elder and me being the rip old underage of 18, about the most questionable thing I ever did was participate in a little underage drinking. It’s really pretty easy when your husband can buy it for you. At that point in my life, getting a tattoo never crossed my mind. Fast forward about 9 years and I’ve decided that I want one. Nothing crazy or blatantly out there, but something reserved and that I can cover up.
I’ve all but decided I want it across the top of my foot. Despite browsing designs for the last three years, and browsing often, I can’t settle on anything. I’m trying to see myself at 60 and I just haven’t found anything that I think my grandkids will think is cool (or that I won’t look back at and wonder what the hell I was thinking.) I see these really awesome tattoos all the time… tattoos that literally make me say ‘wow’… and I just can’t see them on me. I’m hoping that something I find will grow on me enough that I’ll eventually get my ink.
Here are some of my recent finds…
Do you have any tattoos? Something awesome I should consider? I’d love to see them!

I do not have a tattoo but my son who is 20 has 2. Over his heart on the right side he has the seal of Ohio. He was born in Ohio and we lived there until he was 8. He said his life is in Michigan but his heart is in Ohio. And his 2nd is on his right upper arm very close to his sholder is the state of Michigan. Now I wasn’t happy with the fact of him getting them but the are tasteful. Hard to tell your honor student who does everything else perfect in life I don’t care if you are 20 you can’t get a tattoo! Maybe you have something you have something that holds your heart and where your life is.
I think you’ve seen all buy 1 of mine now…I have birds on my back on my right shoulder…the “stamp”, the one of my foot, my turtle and butterfly, and my wrist ink.
Apparently I have lots of ink lol
