Ohhhhhhhh.........Dear.
NEVER underestimate the importance of SunScreen/Block. I know I never will again!
We're in the process of getting ready to set up our new pool...well it was used for a few years, but it's new to us! Anyway....I was scrubbing down all the railings, polls, decking....getting it all cleaned up and nice looking.
Whereas the pool parts came out looking pretty as a picture...my FEET didn't!!!
In fact, that's why I'm 'rambling on' for a bit right now so that hopefully the pictures aren't the VERY FIRST thing that pops up with the screen shot should somebody just get on here~LOL
It actually looks worse in person...and especially in daylight!
It's red, It's swollen, It hurts to stand on, let along WALK on.....and SHOES?
For-friggin-get It!!
And yes...it's only on ONE foot! My other foot got a 'little' but not bad.....
Here's the main victim claimed by the sun's unsparing UV rays yesterday......
I actually have pretty small feet! I only wear a 6 1/2...but wow...is this puppy swollen!!
It's actually to the point where it's 'strawberried' a little w/white specs. Oh man, I hope I don't have sun poisoning!
I've been LATERHERING w/Aloe, Burn Lotions, cool rags....it felt as though the bed sheets would be capable of just scraping the top few layers of skin off!!
SO PLEASE.....
When you go outside
For the Fun in the Sun
Be sure to wear your lotions
Or for certain you will be DONE!

yikes !!!!! that looks painful
Hope the heat has died of a bit have you tried aloe vera plant
LOL---thanks everybody for your well wishes!
I'm happy to report that I didn't suffer any horrible blistering or anything of the sort. Just some really bad 'itching' from being so dried out and then some good ol' healthy PEELING!! SHOCKINGLY it looks as though only ONE layer is going to peel off! LMAO!! Thought maybe it would've bared to the bone~haha!!
I know what you are going through, I had that happen on the backs of my legs while I was painting my Mom's house. It was hard to even lay on them. Glad to hear you didn't loose anymore than one layer. Enjoy your new pool.
