lmL Forever.

Last Wednesday night, I attended the wake for the mother of two of my co-workers (brothers).  Being at a funeral home again, that smell of the flowers, just the whole thing was really hard.  It reminded me again that life is so precious.  I only stayed for a little bit and headed for the long ride home.  I was thinking about how I wanted to get the tattoo for Harry that I had already drawn out and was in my wallet. I said, “Harry, if I should get it tonight, show me a sign”.  Less then 3 minutes later I saw a sign for a tattoo shop!

I went in and there was an artist available to do the tattoo then.  I decided to utilize my new phone to its full potential and document the entire process. I took a before picture of my wrist:

I wondered if I should mention the Coumadin?  I decided not to say anything.  Luckily, I didn’t bleed AT ALL.

Coumadin?

lmL looks like the hand sign in sign language for “I love you”.  Harry, Emily and I started doing that hand sign a few months into our relationship anytime we said goodbye.  Instead of a wave, it was lmL.  In texts and e-mails we used lmL to do it.

Tattoo 2

I am so happy with it.  I have other tattoos (ankle and back), and was worried that it would hurt on my wrist, but it hurt more afterwards then when I was getting it done.

Taking the bandage off...

On a side note: I’m putting back up comments on my blog.  Go ahead haters, hate away.  I will be monitoring the comments and if they get out of hand, they will be deleted on a comment by comment basis :)
