Connect What inspired your most recent tattoo?

my most recent tattoo was my mermaid inspired by independence, freedom, and my love for the water. Swimming, kayaking, fishing, or ice fishing - it seems I am always on the water or in it. I’ve always struggled with being a people pleaser and not trusting my intuition until a chapter closed and I grew my backbone and began my passion for fishing or being on the water. It’s my therapy - aside from tattoos.

If your ink could speak, what would it say?

If my ink could speak, it would tell the story of my pain, the love for my son and family, and memories with those close to me.

What would you do with the $25,000?

With the $25,000 I would make renovations on my house to make it more easily accessible for my mother in law to live with us. We are hoping to turn our attic into a room for us and give her more than just a bedroom but we found rot that needs to be properly fixed and is going to be more expensive and labor extensive than we thought.
