This year my husband wanted to go to SunLakes, Washington. It's a giant blue lake in the middle of the dessert in a canyon in Eastern Washington...
Day 1 I O.D.ed on my blood pressure meds because the pharmacist hfilled the wrong prescription and I was weak and had to stay in
Day 2 Midway through the day I realize that I am on too much BP meds and flush my system and start to recover
Day 3 I go out with my husband in the sun for the first time in 20 years.... apparently I can't do that anymore.... The fishing was fun. I caught nothing, I actually had a fish steal my bait and then jump in the air and flash his tummy at me... I did catch the mother of all sunburns... My husband is from the South and is naturally tan. We walked home (to our cabin) and he was like you are kinda red. You will be fine. I could already tell I was not fine.
By night I was unable to put on clothes and had a fever of 103, I was slathered in aloe vera and lotion and showered about 4 times in cold water, that is about the time the convulsions set in. Then my shouders blistered out.... Then my husband went out to find solarcaine....
Day 4
I laid in bed as carefully as possible to not irritate my f-ing blisters while my husband that can f-ing tolerate sunlight went out and mountain biked and hike all over the canyon. At 6PM the f-ing power went out and we were informed by the resort director that it would be out until midnight or so.... Ahhhh Bullshit I say. We were packed and on the highway in search of refreshing cool air
Day 5
After a long cool refreshing night car trip I awoke at about 11:30AM in my own bed and my blisters were screaming in a voice all their own. I have spent most of this glorious beautiful day in the house hiding behind the blinds from the sun. While my husband has cut the lawn, planted flowers and washed my car....
My ginat blisters continue to get bigger on my right shoulder....Ewwwww I can't wait until tomorrow. My face is almost brown now instead of flame colored and my wrists are almost brown too... the rest of me looks like a lobster..... ~sighs Lobster is delicious.
