Slip,slop,slap.

Slip on a shirt, slop on sunscreen and slap on a hat.

He he, I too learned the hard way .

Ya got blisters?

My first paying job I had was at 12 y/o bailing hay for a neighbor.....(we raised corn, didn't have a clue about bailing hay.) It was a typical July in Minnesota, 90 deg with 99% humidity. I showed up in a short sleeve shirt and shorts. I *did* have gloves though

Big mistake. 2nd day on the job I had jeans and a long sleeve shirt on.

Live and learn

Put 200 bales of alfalfa in the barn this weekend. The best thing about throwing 75 lb bales when it’s 90 degrees is that later, when you think you’re having a bad day at work, you realize that at least your not throwing 75 lb bales when it 90 degrees .

I'm getting brown now. Soon I will be indistinguishable from Animal...which is my goal for the summer.

You got that right!:D
I raked and bailed 400 bails of coastal, then put it in the barn. I sorta feel like the Hulk now...everything is very light. Oh, and thank GOD for Aloe Vera Gel!

I heard you should wait 24 hours before applying aloe vera to a sunburn.... something about making it worse?

I havent read anything about it before.. that true?
