Wasps, yellow jackets – whatever, they are still around and not only more active the last several days, but I was stung AGAIN – and IN the house… one of them must have followed one of us inside and it was “sitting” on the cord for one of the blinds.\u00a0 Just before going to bed, I open the blinds in preparation for opening the windows when it cools outside.\u00a0 I put my hand right on the wasp – the cord is 3 feet long!\u00a0 and I picked the exact place the wasp was sitting.\u00a0\u00a0 I got stung on the little finger of my right hand – first joint above the palm. In 24 hours my entire hand was swollen and looks like the paddle foot of some sci-fi water creature – itches like crazy and the skin on my pour little finger is so swollen that it split in a couple of places – OWWWW!<\/p>\n
