I hope you start using sunscreen after this although, dh has never learned and he burns in no time!
Yeah, I've always used vinegar in the past, but I just hate the smell. It helped the burn to keep it on for about 4 hours. It's still pretty red and sore today though. I would have tried to leave it on longer, but I had to get up at 6:00 and I wanted more than three hours of sleep! I put some sunscrean on today when I was at swimteam this morning (I wasn't swimming). I have such fair skin I burn so easily too. I think I will be using sun screan from now on this summer!!! I guess it takes me two hard burns, but I learned! lol

I haven't taken any tylenol. I might try some ice, because it's so hot. hopefully that takes the heat away. I have to go and shower. I'll be back later! Are you going to still be here later?
