First Swim

Friday was the first day at the pool. (Well the second but the first time we only got to swim for 15 min.) Sorry no pictures. Anyway, I put sunscrenn on all the kids including myself and we headed to the pool. We had a great time! We went with firends so all the kids had someone to play with and I had some adult conversation. We stayed for a little over 2 hours. As we were heading home I could feel my shoulder were hot but thought nothing about it. That night I was as red as a lobster and couldn't wear a top. I can't believe that I got so burnt. This is not the first ime. When I was in middle school (i think) I got so sunburned that I had huge blisters on my shoulder. That was my fear for this time. It never happened but I didn't sleep the first night at all because of the pain.

The next day Miranda babysat for a nurse and she said to use naxzima (the face cleaner) to take the sting out, at that point I would have tried anything. So on the was home we stopped and got some. To my suprise it helped. I got some sleep that night. I still can't wear a bra but today I did get to wear a shirt!

We are going swimming tomorrow and will let you all know how it goes. Keep your fingers crossed. Thankfully I was the only one who got burnt. The kids were just fine.
