sun - sun - burn

uff....i'm currently working 10-12 hours/day, which is why i didn't want to spend even more time in front of a computer screen. but i felt like today i could manage to type a few words and keep you updated with what's going on. well, that's it. that's what going on. working, eating, sleeping, repeat. sometimes i manage to squeeze in little workout but most of the time i'm just done - can't lift myself anywhere than in my bed. my bed's my best friend these day. but i don't really want to complain. i love my job and there are going to be days i only have to work a few hours or not at all.

but before this whole working-my-ass-off month started i went hiking with my mom, dad and the puppy. the sun was shining the whole day, but the light breeze made the hiking bearable. At the end of the day, however, i burned my back so badly (despite putting on sunscreen (SPF 50) and refreshing it every hour) that i seriousely couldn't feel anything than a pausing ache. i kinda freaked out because i only saw the damage i've done to my skin when i came off the shower. neither my mom or my dad had seen it during the hike. i went to the pharmacy the next morning and bought after sun and some foam spray to ease the stretching and allay inflammation. it didn't peel or anything and my skin looks normal/healthy again - thank god! so guys, don't forget to put on sunscreen, stay in the shade as much as possible and don't forget to stay hydrated! my next hike is definitely going to be on a day in fall when the sun isn't burning down so much ;)
