I was stung by a yellow jacket while I was digging out canning jars on Thursday. The sting did not hurt too long, but the itch will drive me crazy. I have had hubs out there every day spraying and respraying as they come back. Then yesterday while I was trying to be lazy, I burned the crap out of three of the fingers on my left hand.
I swear I had those fingers in ice water for over three hours before I could stand to live with them. It was my own fault as I took two piecrusts out of the freezer to make pies(not lazy) and then when I pulled the crusts out of the 425 degree oven I somehow let my three fingers drop below the hot pad. Well that was the end of my cooking for the day. So I guess it did help me be lazy. The crusts are still sitting on the stove waiting for me to do something with them.
I finally nailed down dates for our annual fall trip. Hubs and I will fly out to meet Sluggy and her husband on the 27th of Sept. We are going to tour up the coast of Maine and other fun places. I can't believe they agreed to go with us as we tried to kill them in Idaho last year. I think they have think skins.
Well it is almost 10:30 here, so I think I will go upstairs and scare up a filling for those two piecrusts. Maybe I will take a long walk before church. We will see.
Have a peaceful and restful Sabbath.

Sometimes we need to be careful what we ask for!! LOL You wanted to be lazy - God gave you a reason to lazy!
ReplyDeleteSorry for your boo-boos. Hope they get to feeling better quickly. Pie sounds yummy!
Have a good one
You are right it must be fate as I rarely slow down even when I want to.
DeleteThose of two of the worst hurts around. it would be easier to just be able to work!
ReplyDeleteYou think?
DeleteGirl you couldn't be lazy if you had to! Those yellow jackets can mess up an otherwise good day real quick. I was cleaning off my carport years ago, and one flew up and stung me on my mouth. I knocked my glasses off, and with tears streaming down my face and my lip swelling, I walked down the street to the store to get Benadryl. I had no idea how bad I looked until one the store employee asked if I needed the police. Everyone thought the Redneck had beaten me up!
ReplyDeleteThat redneck......
DeleteThose burns are the worst - I was trying out the Instant Pot my friend got me for my birthday and splashed water on my chest - it is JUST starting to peel and go away!!! I don't know which would be worse, the wasp sting or the burn. What did help is we got this aloe gel (from Wal-Mart I think, YEARS ago) and we keep it in the fridge so when you get a burn you grab it and not only does the aloe help the burn, but it is nice and cool too.
ReplyDeleteI just soaked them in ice water till I could stand the pain. It worked! Also took some tylenol
