All The Things She Said...

Yes, please

Chicago resident and grandmother Helen Lambin likes it when young people stop her on the street to give her compliments on her tattoos, or when they simply yell out, “Nice ink!”. She enjoys the fact that her tattoos have helped create connections with strangers, of different generations and cultures. The idea for getting a tattoo came to her three years ago when she was feeling down about growing older. One led to another, and then another.

At this point, I’m pretty certain there is something wrong with me… Is it normal to want to drink to deal with the death of an addict? How fucking hypocritical of me. It’s a good thing I’m too far beyond giving a shit to.. Well, give a shit.

I feel like I’m suffocating. Simple, every day tasks are so overwhelming that I would just rather… Not.
I would rather not get out of bed, but someone has to feed my children.

So fucking mad that this happened to my family, to MY mom. We should have beat the statistics.

Maybe if I had done more….

There is no outlet here.

This stupid blog no longer servers my purpose.

I can’t say what I need to say without it somehow coming back to bite me in the ass. Stupid, stupid, stupid. Isn’t that what a privacy setting is for?

Trying to let go of my negativity while filtering my words is a fruitless effort.

I quit.

And here I am, questioning every decision I’ve ever made.

Broken down
Lucky No. 7….

You can get addicted to a certain kind of sadness…..

Must…… Have……
