My mouse tattoo was my first, it was a flash that I thought was cute. My writing tattoo is my grandmothers handwriting, she’s my new mom :)

My grandmother. The most amazing and generous woman to ever grace the planet. My mother was a hag, for lack of a better word, and made my life a living hell until I was able to legally leave on my own at 18. Who took care of me? My grandparents. My grandma and pop. So I got my grandmothers signature, and I’m hoping to soon get something of my grandfathers as well (probably a part number to my old ass car, as that’s all he writes down)
If your ink could speak, what would it say?Well. My mouse would probably say “squeak squeak” shortly before doing something dastardly. But my other piece would spin a tale of a girl who lost one family but forged another through blood, sweat, love and light. My grandparents are my rock and nothing is allowed to happen to them, and seeing my grandmas lots of love signature on me everyday, albeit a small piece, is all the strength I need to get me through.
What would you do with the $25,000?I’d save it and use all of it to help my grandparents. Whether that be repairing their deck, getting them new chickens, paying their medical and vet bills. They took care of me, now it’s my turn to take care of them.
