happiness (noun): a state of well-being and contentment. JOY. a pleasurable or satisfying experience. (Thanks @merriamwebster). Filled with so much HAPPINESS because I finally got to the #potterystudio. Nothing quite like feeling the rhythm of the #potterywheel as the clay washes the troubles away. So overdue after the chaos of the past month+. I hope I never go this long again. Of course my blood sugar went low because I was so relaxed. (And I must say- pretty pleased with my first piece back). #madebymindyjean

In my heart and soul, I’ll never truly grow up. So happy to finally get this piece I’ve been wanting for several years. Inspired by the giving tree & the tree/tire swing from @highmeadowsschool - where I went to preschool. In LOVE with my recent ink by @daniwilliamstattoo at @bostontattoocompany- thank you for this amazing piece! I felt just as giddy as I did with my first tattoo (partially pictured). 💜

Ending 2019 with a bang but starting 2020 on the right foot. And for some reason I don’t love going out but I love #NYE? #NYE2019 #NewYears2020 #goodbye2019 #hello2020 #newyearseve
