ARGH!

 Let me make one thing clear.  I hate mowing the lawn.  I complain about it all the time.  I'm the only one who mows for various reasons (allergies, bad feet, long days at work).  So, I decided to mow the lawn today without complaint

**winces in sympathy** If you smoke or you have anybody around you with cigarretes, bum one and crush it up; then soak the tobacco and pack it under a bandaid over the sting. The nicotine is *very* good for soothing wasp stings, though I'm not sure why.

Hmmm, no one at home smokes or in my general vacinity. Thugh, a lot of people at work smoke. *snicker* I could raid the used butts (cutting off the mouth end) and use that. However, this morning it doesn't really bother me. It's not swollen and I can barely see it.

Thanks but it isn't swelling. The area itchs a little. It's taking a lot of self control to now scratch.

*hug!*

I've been toying with the idea of a band-aid but I do not relish the taking it off (arm hair!) and the area around the sting is slightly red and quite tender (just not swollen).

I like that thought. My cousin, who has moved in with us to establish residency, has volunteered to do the odius task but I don't know how far I can go in telling him when to do it. If I ever have a place with a lawn, I will be hiring a kid to do it every week or two.
