Summertime toes and burnt armpits

Sunday night I waxed my legs and painted my toenails. I’m sure you all wanted to know that. But I was very excited to once again have summertime toes, even if it was snowing when I left the house Monday morning (and of course couldn’t wear sandals to show off my red toes.)

Yesterday I went to the tanning bed in preparation for leaving on our trip on Friday. As I get darker I have more and more prominent white stripes down my sides where I lie in the tanning bed with my arms next to me. So, I got this bright idea that I would lay there with my arms over my head. I carefully put on lotion on the undersides of my arms, but I didn’t think about the fact that my armpits have probably never in their respective existences seen the light of day, and so were especially tender.

Yeah. Let me tell you, it was a real joy and a treasure trying to put on deodorant this morning.
