so i got sucked in by my kids and my cousin to go to the beach.
About a month ago i got into some poison ivy. Got it pretty bad, all over my legs,arms, some on my face and belly. I thought i knew what i was looking for before i started but that's what i get for thinking,lol.
So anyways its gone but i still have some spots that I've scratched that are still trying to heal. So I've been wearing pants since then. Now my top half has a pretty nice tan but my legs look like a snowman. And with the spots that are trying to heal im feeling very self conscious. There's no way im going out in a bathing suit. So i was thinking about wearing the top with a pair of capris. Im not my of a swimmer anyways. I like to be able to see in the water that im swimming in, i have this thing about something grabbing me.
But then my over thinking mind thinks that if i wear that then its going to draw more attention to me. I just have this bad feeling that im going to be judged and embarrassed.

Any advice on how to get through This? I still have to go regardless, unless a tornado comes through. Which i don't really see happening.
