Having a great time in Missouri! I wound up with a scratched cornea and went to the emergency room yesterday morning because my eye swelled shut. Lol and despite that it has been really fun.
I decorated my eye patch. Lol
We made absolutely no plans, just got in car and decided to see what happens. First night we wound up in this awful motel, but it was 2am and we'd been up for over 21 hours and we had to stop.
Luckily, there were no bugs!
We spent most of the time just relaxing. I haven't been responsible for anything. No meals, driving, decisions, anything. So I've been cutting completely loose! First time in a long time. I had forgotten what it feels like. Yesterday we found an old friend of my husbands who has become a very talented tattoo artist. We traded glass we brought with us (our own work) for these:
And I'm really happy with mine. It's perfect! It's a tribute to my parents. When I was young tattoos were illegal in oklahoma, so my parents took me to some guys house and I played under the table while they got inked. Dad got a rose on the exact spot where my rosé is, and mom got a butterfly on her chest which I added to the design. It was a perfect day. We were all there, happy, healthy and alive. This will be here to always remind me of that day now. A few more hours with family then were on the road home!
