Again my Dad I remember a story he told me when I was little about a mermaid that he saw when he painted ships in Germany. He didn't much care for the ships but he said she sang to him and he would hum a tune. That is when I decided to get the mermaid on my bicep. It flows with the ship that has his name underneath it and the girl sailor that says "Sink or Swim"
If your ink could speak, what would it say?If I could talk, I’d tell you Tracy got me at 16—no plan, just fire in her heart. I’ve seen her rise from chaos, laugh through pain, honor her dad with wings and flowers, and pour love into every line. I was there when ink became healing, the day Levi walked in and called out that “upside-down banana.” That’s when her story really started. I’m not just ink—I’m her survival in color.
What would you do with the $25,000?I want to go see where my Dad grew up in Hamburg Germany. Before he died he and I would talk about visiting there someday, unfortunately I never got the chance to go. His life meant so much to so many people all over the world. I could not believe the people that attended his viewing and funeral, again from all over the world. So I would go-to Hamburg Germany to see just how much it meant to him. Oh and I would put some away in savings and splurge get and outfit and my hair done. Lol
