The Kiddie Concert

It may not be as hot as it could be, but it is hot enough. Today our family and our niece attempted to sit through a kiddie concert in a nearby city. The concert is part of the city festival. There was a man there performing a "concert" for the kids. Really, all we could make out is a few words here and there because of poor accoustics in the outdoor bandshell. On top of the not being able to hear a thing, we were hotter than all get out. It was pushing 95 degrees. We were in the shade of some trees, but our walk to and from the bandshell was 100% sun. The antibiotics that I am taking for the kidney stone procedure come with the warning that a person who is taking this medication should try to avoid extended exposure to the sun. Even though we were in the sun for a total of only about 10 minutes and even though I had on SPF 30 sunscreen, I managed to get red. Ahhh! I am so over the days when being super tan is cool. I understand the dangers of the sun and cancer and it makes me nervous to know all of the bad things that I have done to my skin up to this point. I was ignorant and I'm sorry.
