Welcome to Building the Book Pile! A Weekly meme inspired by Stacking the Shelves
Hello Readers, Bloggers, and Awesome people!
This week FLEW by so quick... but it was pretty fun. We are back to full normal hour weeks at work, which always feels weird - it feels like I am leaving so early when I leave at my normal time now.
But on Tuesday, after about 7 years with only tattooed outlines for fairy wings on my back, I started filling them in SO EXCITED about this. Having the outlines done were pretty painful, the artist used a very thick liner and so it was not fun. It took me this long to work up the courage to start filling them in and they are beautiful so far. Today I am peeling and itchy (if you have tattoos - you probably get it, if not - it is all part of the healing process). I sat for way longer than I should have so next time I will go for shorter but I already have the appointment on the books :) I took Wednesday off of work because clothing was no fun but the rest of the week was pretty low key.
The shop has scarves, cowls, hats and baby booties now... :)
Go take a look and if you have requests let me know.
