It was a hornet or the yellow jacket...the honey bees were just doing their thing on the clover flowers, but whatever that angry thing with a stinger was...he got me 2 times on the bottom and side of my foot. And he took his stinger with him. My foot is kinda swollen and there's a real hard knot under the first sting. Sad thing is I know better...
I know better too but I still like to go barefoot so I do. Honey bees don't have a chance with my feet. They lose their stinger for nothing cause they won't go in. A poultice might help or do the same with a warm soak in baking soda water or with epsom salt. That's what I've always used and it's always helped take the swelling down. It also helps with the pain a bit. Since he took his stinger with him it was probably a yellow jacket. Those are more painful and they can sting multiple times. I really feel for you ? and hoping you get some relief soon.

I am pretty sure it’s a sully?
But who cares…
As long as her migraines are getting better ❤️‍?.
Snoopy was her Russian that escaped about 6 weeks ago & a neighbor found it after it has been run over about 3 weeks ago. She wasn't very vocal about it & it was in the middle of her migraine problem, too. You were very upset about Sally. Chef Archie is fine as far as we know.

Only one catch…. YOU get to watch my sully . ?

I have to correct this. The card was for my bunny's birthday. Her name was QueSi. She was as bad as the song.
