tattoo done

Well I did it. I now have a tattoo on my shin. It hurt so much to get. I'm wondering if my phobia to the needle is about the pain factor. After getting  my tattoo it seems my fear is more about the aversion to pain. People say that a needle doesn't hurt however my mind has made it far worse than it actually is. The pain endured to get the tattoo was annoying and really irritating. Now   I look at getting my blood tests done in July and it doesn't scare me as much anymore. I feels like I've made progress with my fears. I will keep you all posted on this.
I did laundry 3 loads and put it all away then took out garbage and did dishes then put it away.
I had a chicken sandwich for supper the a BLT for lunch with fruit for snacks.
