What's On Your Thursday Menu, RNYers?
Good Morning all, and Happy Birthday to Me! I have to admit, 46 looks pretty good on me. LMAO My son has a game tonight, so last night my husband took me to the mall and let me shop for some new clothes AND he refilled my Angel perfume bottle for an early b-day celebration. Yay! I'm currently rocking white skinny crop pants (size 6, thankyouverymuch) and a royal blue fitted button down. The shirt's a size 10, though, because I have a big rack. LOL I have officially branched out from khaki and black.
And my coworkers have gifted me with Yankee Candle, an adorbs pair of bee earrings and a large blueberry iced coffee from DD with milk and three Splendas. They know me so well. LOL
QOTD! Do you have any tattoos? I have one (a rose swooshy thing) on my ankle that I got when I was 23. A couple of years ago I started laser treatment to get it removed because reasons. LOL You can still see it a little because I never finished the treatments because it hurts like a sonofa***** Like, way worse than actually getting the tattoo in the first place. HA!

I guess I will go in the order I got them.
My first tattoo is in the center of my back, on my spine of a butterfly with some stars going up and down. I had to get it somewhere I could hide because my Mom said no tattoos until I graduated high school. Weeeeeell I was legally old enough, 18, so I did it anyway.
2nd: This is my only "flash" tattoo. A friend was getting a tattoo and on a whim I decided to get a little butterfly on the front of my thigh, again in a spot I could hide because I was still in high school. HAHAH
3rd: I was about 19 maybe, and got a grouping of flowers with a butterfly on the outside of my left ankle.
4th: I have a butterfly on the top of my boob (not the chest), that has vines that go around the under side of my boob.
5th: A little devil based on the Precious Moments little kiddo drawings, with my daughters Birthday under it, on my left shoulder
6th: A little angel based on the precious moments kiddo drawings with my daughter's name under it, on my right shoulder. This one comes with a PSA!!!! I was by myself when I got the tattoo, went over the spelling with my artist. Her sister has the same middle name as my daughter, but spelled different. Oh that's cool. Yup the stencil looks great on my shoulder, I am looking at it with a little hand held mirror. Tat that ***** up. A few hours later I take the dressing off to wa****uummm that doesn't look right.....Hey friend can you tell me how she spelled Hannah's middle name.....OH **** she spelled it like her sister spelled her name....NOT how my Hannah KAITLYN is spelled. HAHAHAHAHA So I had to go back and she like did some fixing and squeezed in the I or something....I dont see it much....so whatever. NO ONE has ever mentioned it looking weird....soooo yeah
7th: I have a lovely foot tattoo of butterflies and flowers and swirly things, I want something on the other foot someday
8th: I have a ball of yarn in the shape of a heart on the outside of my right ankle, with yarn that wraps the back of my ankle that spells "Mary", my grand mother's name who taught me to knit when I was a kid, then the yarn goes around to the inside of my ankle and wraps around 2 knitting needles. YUP, I am a WICKED BADASS KNITTER!!! Be afraid
9th: I have a rose on my right forearm with little blue forget me nots around it for the baby we lost that should have been born in June, and June's birth flower is the rose.
Morning AV, and Happy Birthday!
I have no tattoos. I was never tempted, not even a little.
I made it to dinner with Kelley, Stacy, Cory and Mo last night, and had a fantastic time! It was so, so nice to see them all. Thanks again to Kelley for getting that ball rolling. Kelley will post some pictures for Photo Friday.
