Default belly piercing

Well I went out and totally did a random thing! quick painless and $35 later I now have a beautiful piece of sparkly in my belly button...man..

It's funny...I had one when I was huge..and I've had 3 laproscopic surgeries so I had to show him my belly first to see if he thought there was room in there to pierce not in scar tissue..which is a bad thing! I was pretty nervous.

he found a small area and Bob's your uncle! It's in, thank ya and good bye..25 min total if that.

wow....

just in case anyone asks..I had OPEN rny plus the GB,Hystero, and tubal all lapro so scarring in belly button plus the long one. but hey there was room plus I have some tattooing around the scarring, some from previous to surgery some after.

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

Exclamation Response to Loss--oddity

well it's odd timing...I think that over the past 3 years ..well no that would be i KNOW I'm still dealing with major PTSD issues so I respond to the pain of loss and mourning in twisted ways.

I had gotten the email last night at work..about one of my officers who's at home dying of cancer stage 4+..his wife has to leave PD also because of medical issues/disability ...their daughter committed suicide while the wife went to pick up the daughter's little girl..came home and found her..I'm sure there will quite a showing of PD for this funeral..they've already been preparing for his upcoming funeral.

I think that somehow..I had to do something anything..and it was also an impetous to just DO what I'd been thinking about for a long time.

Time is so short and people choose to end it so suddenly ...what inner pain she must have been in I can't begin to understand.

It's just what I've said for a long time now....LIFE steps in whether you want it to or not and FOOD is not how you deal with it anymore. Feel the pain, mourn, live and find happiness where you can...start within YOURSELF first!!

I was considering a belly piercing...I have a plan for a tatoo...what is it usually 1 year after surgery w/o issues before getting a tatoo? Sorry about the family that is experiencing so much pain. I will keep them in my prayers. Tina
