Went over to my sisters to put up their pool, then found out the insurance company requires a fence to go around any pool over 3', so I went to lows and got fence/post. I then spent all day getting the pool and the fence up.
No my head (shaved), neck and back are burning...
Going up to st.louis to put up my cousins pool on saturday... it's going to SUCK!

On a pool over 3ft? that makes no sense. Ohio says any pool with less than 40inch walls has to have a fence.
so that law says if i make a pool 30 ft deep i need to put a fence around it?

3 words that will be your friend: apple cider vinegar smells bad but takes the burn right out if you dab it on with a wet paper towel. Also helps to stop the peeling and icky ish

Thats what the insurance company said.
The pool has 4ft side walls, they said we had to have a fence around it...

Stop off at a dollar store and pick up some aloe cream (use as often as you like)... it's cooling, helps take the burn away, cuts down redness, and peeling won't be as bad

I just recently started shaving my head, so that was the first time it got good exposure to the sun.
Now my heads not so white atleast...

When I was 18 yrs old, I tried to be cool and lathered myself up with tanning oil at the beach for an entire day. Then drank that entire night. Next day I was so badly burned and so dried out that my skin was literally destroyed. I can't even explain the pain properly. It felt like skinning the palms of your hands on gravel from falling off your bike but all over the entire body. I actually cried. I also couldn't go outside in the sun for over a week. I couldn't even wear clothes for a week.
