op - I've had two "suspicious" moles removed already (leg and back) - despite wearing sunscreen religiously. I try very hard not to get burned, it just seems like my skin soaks up whatever sun is available. In TX too, so it's kind of unavoidable. So aggravating. [ Reply | More

Try a different sunblock. You should not get sunburned. Also remember to reapply every few hours ... and put sunblock on 20-30 minutes before you go outside. Also are u taking any Meds that are making you sun-sensitive? That could explain it too. [ Reply | More

Right, but I'm guessing the nanny is saying that because she does not want the commute. If she is going to spend full days working plus four hours commuting, it may only be worth it to her if she is paid for her commute. I guess it depends on how much you want her. Definitely not a normal request. [ Reply | More
