nature sucks (and stings)



On top of everything else, I was also recently attacked by a swarm of bees. I'd pissed them off by shaking out a dustmop against a wooden post where I guess they had a hive or something.

Ouch! Did you get stung, or escape unscathed?

baking soda paste helps with the swelling...hope you feel the benadryl soon, and better after that

Damn wasps make me crazy! Next time you get a sting, make a quick paste of meat tenderizer and water and plaster it on the sting. The enzymes kill the protein in a sting and neutralize it fairly quickly. I grew up around fire ants so I know it works!

In the future please let a neighbor(one you do not like) shake out your dustmop. I hope you are ok now. ~Mary x0

Oh I am so allergic and a friend ask me if I wanted to visit a honey bee farm, I had no problem saying NO!
