babs 0 Posted December 7, 2012 Hi all. So, so freaking glad I found you guys. I'm a downtown, 45-year-old who got my first tattoo earlier this week. It was a reward for staying clean (oh, the joys of crack cocaine: took my marriage, every cent I had ever saved, my home and for a long time, my health) for three years, and I've been planning it about that long. I think it would be fair to say that I'm hooked. I'm starting to plan my next tat as a reward after I lose some of the weight my medication (see health problems, above) put on me. After thinking my life was over a few years ago and clawing myself back out of the black hole I was in, my simple new tattoo ("courage" on my forearm) makes me happy every single time I look at it. Anyway, glad to be here. 2 else and Steve reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gougetheeyes 234 Posted December 7, 2012 @babs welcome! Sounds like you've had a pretty tough go of it but it also sounds like your new tattoo has worked out perfectly. Really happy you've found LST and hope you'll find it a great resource. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
