too much sun....

ok, so i was on duty at 7:30 am yesterday morning at the water and snack station at the burgin run....the morning was chilly and i was delighted to find a jacket in the trunk of my car.....at some point the race organizer sent her elderly mother over to sit with me 'in the sun'......yes, the sun was shining but i still felt a bit cold even with my outerwear.....fast forward to 10 am when i dashed home to drive my youngest child to her cross country meet at the stadium......the jacket stayed in teh car because the sun really was shining a bit brighter....but at no point during the 11-1:30 timeslot did i feel the least bit overheated.....granted, i was kept occupied during in between races with earnest updates with friends i rarely see in between sports seasons.....especially now that we follow the gold and black schedule rather than the blue one.......imagine my surprise later when my spouse came home and exclaimed 'honey, did you forget to use suncreen?'.......sunscreen never occurs to me when i am cold, BTW.......i had somehow managed to miss all mirrors as i caught up on chores before supper..... red raccoon eyes where my glasses shieled part of my face....and brilliantly burnt shoulders and neck.....yikes.....it is not as if i have been living in a cave all summer....i do sit and read the paper on the back deck when ever i get the chance.....hopefully this will fade by monday......one hates to flaunt one's disregard for the self-care in a public health workplace.....
