This day has been completely wasted.  I had plans to get so much done, but instead I helped my mother have a yard sale.  I stayed in the shade and I put lots of SPF 30 suntan lotion on, repeatedly.  However, when we packed up the stuff and loaded it up to be taken away for donation, I got burnt.  In 45 minutes.  My mother and brother both got some sun, but I look like I have been sitting in the sun all day long.  While I usually enjoy the fact that I tan twice as fast as anyone else, today was an exception.  It doesn't hurt unless I rub on it, but I have awful tan lines now.  I wore a tank top today, so I have a "wife beater tan" according to my brother.  The worst part is that after all of that sun exposure, I fell asleep at mom's house, and that took the rest of my afternoon.  I didn't get home until after 11:00pm.  I am still tired, and my skin is radiating heat in  freakish manner.  It's sweltering outside and I have a cardigan on to keep me from freezing.  I still have to finish cleaning house too.  I have friends who will be visiting from out of town tomorrow afternoon.  All I want to do is take a long shower and then crawl into bed.

On a good note, my mother made homemade chicken noodle soup for my brother and I.  It is sooooo good.  I don't know how she calls it soup though.  It has very little liquid.  It's more like a stew.  I considered calling it a stoup, like Rachel Ray would say, but it's even too thick for that.Guess it doesn't really matter.  I think that I could eat my weight in it.  Sooo good!  Mmmmmm....
