Perfect Timing, as per usual

Because, you know, everything in my life is so well planned and equally well executed {HA, I jest}, I obviously thought that getting a full foot tattoo and moving into our first home {!!!!!!!!} in the same week would be no big deal.  Because I am Super-mum, I feel no pain and I can organize the shit out of anything.  Right?

So anyway, tattoo on Saturday afternoon – all good.  Two hours later and I couldn’t walk.  At all.

Today is better, my hobbling is less cripple-like, though I am still down one ankle due to massive swelling.  This is all fab news considering moving day is Friday, I work on the second floor of our building and I can garner NO sympathy because my discomfort is entirely self-induced {aside from Dave of course, he is sympathetic on a daily basis even in the best of times because after all I HAVE no choice but to live in MY head aka CrazyTown}.

But I LOVE it.  I have thought about this tattoo for a year at least.  It is for my Dad and I and it means so many things to me.

At the very least I am totally predictable and useless, but may have a couple of days up my sleeve to recover enough to drive the stick in my work van come moving day.  Bring on the mortgage!

Spread the love

    Gorgeous tattoo! And congratulations on the new home, how exciting. I also have a tattoo on my foot, not a full foot one though. Did your leg also twitch when certain points on your foot were getting done?

      Thanks so much! It’s been a 2 month settlement so the excitement is just now starting to build. No twitching on my foot, solid as a rock the whole time, was so unprepared for the healing though, my others are small in comparison.

    If I were going to get a tattoo I think a foot is a great place for it. Plenty of room to get something cool and easily covered up when necessary.

    That sword looks pretty cool.
