I am so mad at myself right now! We went to the beach this weekend and I was very diligent with the sunscreen for DD and myself, or so I thought. At least DD is fine and did not get burned.
I just looked in the mirror and realized that I forgot about my back. I did not put any sunscreen at all there and now it is quite red. We were at the beach for about 2 to 2.5 hours today and I was in the sun for the whole time, either sitting on the sand, walking or in the ocean.
I have always been very paranoid about getting a sunburn. I am pretty fairskinned with some freckles and moles and am afraid of getting skin cancer. My grandfather died from cancer that started as melanoma, a few years ago, which only increased my worries about skin cancer.
I guess there is nothing I can do now, I just feel very worried. Also, I am afraid to tell DH. He is a worrier about sun exposure too. I think he might get mad at me.
