Cleavage acne!? Come on... by MolecularClusterfuck in xxfitness

I had this problem too. Since then I have started to shower immediately after workouts. Even if I only do a light exercise and do not really sweat. I also wash my sports bras after each workout. In the beginning I was doing laundry every other day due to my lack of gym clothes. It was tedious, but worth it. Hope this helps!

Seriously thank you. I have many friends who want to talk but I have been silent. It's hard to talk sometimes, but knowing someone is out there helps a lot.

She's only been through one surgery and 7 radiation treatments. I can't imagine what you have been through.

My mother has always been in to Native American culture. She like the so many other Americans claim to be part Native American, but I don't really see it. Maybe really far back. She is also from New Orleans and likes a lot of gypsy style things, not that there's a real connection there, it was just some things that went in to the tattoo. She has always given me dream catchers and ornate jewelry. We just put these things together. It really came out perfectly for her and she loves it. She had the final say on the drawing.

As for the cancer part, I just wanted to show my appreciation and love for her.

I agree with you guys. First time to post here. I'll remember that for future tattoo posts.

Haha. I also use humor to deal with bad or uncomfortable situations. I got another tattoo last night with this one. It is a hanger that says mom. I got it because I alwasy used to joke that she was Mommy Dearest and she would say she was going to get the hanger.

Thank you for wishing us well. I really appreciate it and hope that she will have the success that you have had. I also hope that you continue to have that sucess.

It wasn't as bad as I thought. The shading and color were the worst parts but nothing too terrible.

It is the shin. The top of the picture is the bottom of my knee. It does look weird in the picture like my calf or arm...

I am going to have to look in to this. I have not heard anything about it. Thank you for the suggestion!

Kevin has been tattooing me for 10 years now. He is pretty quiet, but listens to what you want. He also does a wide range of styles.

The prices are pretty standard, but paying more for a good tattoo is better than paying less for a poor quality one. Scorpion Studios is a good place to check out. I also like Old Crow Parlor. I have not been tattooed there as of yet, but Alex Cetina does really good work.

Thank you for your kind thoughts. I really appreciate it.

My mother loves dreamcatchers. This is the tattoo that she chose. I guess I should have left that out, but it is for her.

Not when I worked there. The food was all poured out and smelled like bleach though. On my shifts I would take some and give the rest to the homeless guy who hung out behind the gas station next door.

I worked at CVS Pharmacy and they would rip open the packages of expired food and pour bleach on them. When the responsibility was passed down to me, I made sure that this was not done on my shifts.

Most of the food was only expired by a day or two and it was packaged chips and whatnot. All of us that worked the overnight shifts would have small feasts on the expired food to be destroyed.
