She Who Waits

"They also serve who only stand and wait." - John Milton

I stole Angelina Jolie's lips.

At least that's what it looked like when I looked in the mirror the past two mornings. :thud:

We went to an air show on Sunday and were in the 100 degree heat for most of the day. I was slathering sunscreen and addicted to my SPF 15 lip balm, but my lips still managed to burn. In the mornings, they look as if someone injected collagen into them and hurt like the dickens. I have family in town hanging out at the beach but I'm going to have to figure out a way to stay out of the sun for a few days, apparently.

I'm off to find some pure aloe or vitamin E and put that on my lips, size some more photos from the air show to share, and then head to the beach house the fam rented. No more sun for me. :bye:

People pay some good money for that - try to enjoy! :P

Time to bust out the big, floppy beach hat, or giant umbrella. Hope you are feeling back to normal soon, and can still enjoy the time with your fam.

That's what I often tell people on military support sites - if you're sad, allow yourself to be sad. It's normal, it's natural, and it's necessary. Wallow if it's a wallowing day! Good moods are allowed to "be" - the bad days should be given equal respect. Feeling guilty or trying to fake it away just adds a different and heavier negativity to it.

the last time i went to an airshow, i slathered all uncovered skin with SPF-most and even wore a sunhat.

even so, i ended up with a gigantic under-chin sunburn bubble that made me unable to turn my head for days! eeeeeeeeee
