    NO BEES!!! I was thinking about it~ but this last Saturday~ we went to a class to learn to milk goats (the pic of my youngest boy milking a goat was there). THEY had Bee Hives. Cool. Didn't think much of it.........

    UNTIL...............

    Driving home~ something was buzzing around me......didn't think much of it......a fly or something~ I was DRIVING so I didn't pay much attention.......

    Suddenly.........
    My abdomen CAUGHT FIRE!!!! I SWEAR~ HAND TO GOD it felt like my abdomen had caught FIRE!!!!!!!

    I was DRIVING!!!!!!!!!

    Amazing to me still~ I CALMLY told my son "Something is biting me" and pulled the van off the freeway before SCREAMING IN PAIN AND YANKING OFF MY SHIRT screaming "OH MY GOD WHAT IS IT!!!???!! GET IT OFF MEEEEE!!!!!!!!!" While my teenage son held one hand over his eyes (his mother was now mostly NAKED in the driver seat and screaming hysterically!) and tried to pear through his fingers to identify and find whatever was biting me!!

    Turned out a bee had flown into the van~ then crawled into my shirt~ then chose to STING ME in the abdomen WHILE I WAS DRIVING!!!!!!!

    I understand we NEED bees~ I understand they are a GOOD thing.......but we are going to have to wait for the swelling to go down...........and for my teenage son to stop staring at the floor every time he sees me~ before I'm willing to add them to my farm!!!!

    OUCH!!!!
    I STILL can't believe I was able to calmly explain I was in pain and pull the van over before the OH MY GOD IT'S A BUG AND IT'S BITING MRE!!!!!!!! Dance started!
