My girls are really scared of bees and I've always told them that they don't need to be because I'm sure a stung wouldn't hurt THAT bad. That was before I got stung!
I was getting in my car this summer and when I went to shut the door I felt a terrible pinch in my armpit. Then the sting intensified and I looked down and saw a bee hanging out of my armpit! I ripped it out and tried to be brave because all of my kids were in the car watching me. Thankfully I didn't swear or anything! But as I drove home the pain got worse and within a few minutes my arm went hot and got a bit swollen and red. I did get stung by a wasp once when I was a kid when my dad was building our house. I was playing in what is now our dining room and there was a wasp nest in the corner in the ceiling and one flew down and stung me. It hurt but I think the bee sting was worse. Probably good it happened to me so that I will be more sympathetic to my kids when it happens to them.
If you look close enough you can see a little white dot that is part of the stinger
I think I might be a bit allergic. It hurt and looked like the picture above for a week.

Oh my gosh- that is BAD! I hate being stung! Looks like a bad allergic reaction!
Good grief Natalie not only were the tomatoes impressive on the last entry but your arm is soooooo impressive. Yes, I believe there might be some allergic reaction involved.
