    I love them. I've been in love with dia de los muertos since taking Spanish in elementary school. I think they are beautiful and the culture behind them and everything! :)

    I have five right now. I have a star on my left wrist, Jaspers name and astrological sign with 12 stars for the day he was born on my right forearm, stars over my right shoulder, an angel on a star on my right shoulder blade and a black and red nautical star in the middle of my upper back.

    I have a dragon on one shoulder blade, a griffin on the other and a woman trapped in vines on my outer thigh. I want to get the two on my back turned into a back piece.

    My six include: A cartoon lion on my lower back (left side) , Leo and 8-4-85 on my back also on my left side, Superman symbol on my outer left calf in purple and orange, WILD BILL above my heart, leo symbol with 2 flowers on each side on the back of my neck and a turtle on the top of my right foot. I'm horribly unbalanced. I have many ideas floating around in my head of my next many tatts.

    Serenity, my son's middle name is Griffin because they're that damn cool. :D

    I usually only get them once a year so I have plenty of time to plan out what I want.

    Oh, I want to play. I have 3 tatts. I have Aerosmith wings on my lower back (tramp stamp) I am a groupie from way back....lol and I have two chinese symbols on my right ankle, one is strength and the other is courage. I got those two during my divorce from h*ll as a reminder that I have the strength and courage to conquer anything!

    I also have my belly button pierced and a few other things pierced! :tongue:

    Alright, alright, now I feel left out. I have a VW symbol and pinstriping on the inside of my left forearm, along with a stingray with pad of butter on his back, in memory of my pet stingray, 'Pancake'. The rest of my left forearm is finished in a peacock feather/water/sun/clouds/seashell design. The outside of my left bicep has a somewhat pin-u girl with flowers around her. My right forearm has a gypsy-sugarskull- faced girl on the front and a 'licky skull' on the back with scrolly swirls all inbetween. The outside of my right bicep has another girl, this one in a white suit with microphone, with black roses and skull n crossbones underneath (she was modeled after a picture of Shirley Manson from Garbage). On the inside of my right bicep, I have a big screaming, cracked face. I have tigerlilies on both of my feet, my lucky guitar pick in a sunburst on my chest, and Alanis Morissette lyris on my upper back.

    Okay...my fingers are tired. :laugh:

    Well, I decided to cut away at my hair a bit. I think I'll keep it for now, but I may go shorter on the bangs

    <---- Uploaded a new pic. I only cut my 'bangs', maybe after the holidays I will do something different with the rest of my hair. It doesn't look like much, but I did chop off 6.5inches!


    Hope you all are having a great day so far. Just remember, it's almost Friday!!

    So far I've hit my running goal. Got my 3rd run in for this week. I need new running shoes ASAP! Realized tonight that my shoes aren't wide enough for my feet and I think that's causing most of my problems.

    I missed breakfast this morning, but I've been doing better with it overall this week.

    And I've been staying under my maintenance calories.


    I'm just hoping to lose enough weight to balance out the jump in lbs I saw when I put new batteries in my scale!

    Despite it being my birthday I've actually done pretty well today! I jogged this morning, cleaned, cooked some lunch for me and a friend who decided since he was off he would keep me company. We hung around the house and watched the History channel all afternoon. Then the husband took me to an amazing Italian restaurant but I tossed that (thanks lap band >.<) I have Alfredo and it was incredible. Seriously if you are ever in Ft. Worth you have to eat there. Then we stopped and got frozen yogurt with Oreo's from Braum's instead of cake. Chocolate frozen yogurt for 180 calories for a cup, you bet your *kitten* I'm eating all of that! :D

    Come to Terrell and we'll road trip it there together. Haha. Tyler isn't too far from me like an hour and a half maybe and Ft. Worth is only another like hour to hour and a half. Psh, we could make this a day trip. The owner guy is completely legit. Hardcore accent and all his family works there. I am seriously infatuated with this place. We've been twice in the last week. Lol.

    Happy Friday Pin-Ups!

    I've had a crazy busy week at work. Tonight is my office party....woo hooo, my dancing shoes are just waiting for me....lol

    I've got to run an errand at lunch but I'm hoping to get a run in at lunch since I've been slacking in the exercise department the past couple of day. I figure that I would be pro-active with the run to balance out the evenings indulgences!

    Have a great day back to the grindstone for me!

    You definately need new shoes! Go to a running store where they fit you. It's a little pricer but it is definately worth it. They watch you run so they can give you shoes that correct any alignment issues. My knees don't ache any more when I run.

    Happy Friday everyone!

    Bru – I love sweeping side bangs, they look great on you.

    Rach – What lyrics do you have tattooed on you?

    Jaspersmom – Happy belated B-day!

    On the tattoo convo, I only have the one that I got years ago it’s a symbol I created when I was in the 5th grade of a heart with a sword going through it with wings ( but it is in cubism style of drawing) I used this symbol as a signature, each of my friends had they’re own symbol. The symbolism is supposed to be heart=love, sword=anything harmful, and the wings=strength to overcome anything. My husband doesn’t really like tattoos but is aware that once we have a child I will be getting another, I plan on getting the footprint of the day of birth on my foot, so that I never forget how small our child was.

    "This time I as I, and not as We"

    It took me awhile to realize that I needed to focus on what made ME happy too. I was always sacrificing for the good of the relationship or for the other person, hoping that'd keep them around. It wasn't until I let go of the other people and focused on myself and feeling worthy of things on my own, that I stopped using attention/affection from other people to make myself feel good.

    Ya'll should be so proud of me!! Nick 'had' to have pizza.. so I ordered a chicken delite from Papa Murphys, had two pieces instead of the original four I thought I would, and then decided to have a gala apple, hint of salt crackers 1 cup of cauliflower and a hint of ranch in place of those other two pieces of pizza.. Woot Woot GO ME!


    How's everyone doing? It's been quite in here today.. hope all is well!!
