Sunburned :(

I haven't had a sunburn on my back since I was 12.
Well yesterday I didn't think twice about putting on my swimsuit, turning the sprinklers on, and getting some weeding done in the backyard. When I came in the house I was fried to a crisp! My entire back is flaming red and so sore.
That'll teach me!

Hope you heal soon! My DS rode his bike without a shirt yesterday and got an awful burn on his back too.

Yeah I had completely forgotten how changes in your body can change your sun tolerence. I am still sooooooooo sore! I have been putting aloe on it quit a bit and took a few cool showers. Don't know how I am going to do my dental appointment in the morning....

Poor baby! I do that at least once a year...it wouldn't summer if I didn't do it! Aloe is great, and so is vinegar...but not together.

I hope you have something to put on that helps. Hugs to you

My recomendation is to keep on hand a product called Ocean Potion...It looks like a blue hair gel. its got lidocain and aloe in it. the lidocain numbs the skin slightly so you can rest. Its also great for mosquito bites that itch like crazy.

I feel your pain! We went to the fair on Saturday and I used the spray stuff - apparently I can't get a good angle on the back of my arms or my shoulders, because I'm fried. Yowch!
Hope yours feels better soon!!
