OUCH!

Some people never learn. NEVER.

I attended my granddaughter's first track meet on Saturday. If you've never attended a track meet, it's an all day affair with action going on everywhere. Did I mention that it lasts ALL DAY?


My granddaughter is tall, slender and an athlete.....a super all around athlete. She is only in 8th grade but excels at several sports. Not that I would brag, but just letting you know, she was participating in several events...thus it really was ALL DAY for me....um her.


When I arrive in the morning, it was 54 degrees out. I wore a long sleeve polo type shirt. It was a bit nippy but it wasn't bad. It ended up getting pretty warm....really warm...HOT.

When I got home, I had a sun burn that wrapped around my neck...all the way around. By Sunday morning my neck looked like a red balloon. So..there you have it. I stayed in all day Sunday....no church...nothing!


I played with my new toy...loading all my music and setting my radio stations.

This is the toy I bought on impulse because I felt goofy carrying my boom box with my on my power walks (in my jamas). It's also the toy that the cashier at Wally World commented..."hmmm what made her buy a Walkman". I mean...the Wally Guy in electronics told me it was his first choice. Should have gone to Best Buy. Still, I like it.

Then I made these.


I hope to have about 30 made by Christmas for these kids .

After all this rambling, I will share a little secret......yesterday? I stayed topless. Today? More of the same. My neck still hurts....I have no shame.
