The useful part
I really was minding my own business, and a wasp should not have been in the house. I have a long handled dust pan, and when I went to empty it I grabbed a different part of the handle. I could not believe how much my finger swelled, and when the pain of the sting eased, it itched like crazy...
How it works
- Apparently, the wasp followed me and landed on the handle...
- At the same time the wasp stung me, I managed to cut my pinky finger on a rough spot on the dust pan handle.
- Distraction is the best medicine for me, so I cranked out some more Christmas ornaments.
- With an injured middle finger and pinky finger on my right hand, and injured thumb on my left hand, tatting was not an option.
- Oh, did I mention that I accidentally grabbed my thread snips by the sharp end and sliced my thumb?
Details worth keeping
I was stung by a wasp after I posted on Friday. I was sweeping the floor when I felt something on the back of my neck. I brushed it away and didn't think any more of it.
