The big question is, did the food in the microwave burn? View attachment 1197138

Sorry you fell!

There have been too many people falling and getting hurt recently.

it is great that you can get a kitty!

Never got around to checking the microwave, DH did. It was his supper after all

Thank you

Yellow Legged Wasps. They love Missouri, are very aggressive and love to sting me...which is why I am now tethered to an Epi-pen for the rest of my life.

These were a native wild wasp. They live in the ground here. It was yellow and stung multiple times

Guaifenesin is the active ingredient in Mucinex, which is an what expectorant, and breaks up phlem. Mucinex DM also contains Dextromethorphan, which is to prevent coughing.

Dh is on his way to the pharmacy now to get my antibiotic refill. Chills, fever, congestion, and I feel terrible.

Get a hot bath and wrap up warm. Drink lots of fluid and get all the hugs you can!

I did react to the original stings but they went away withing a day or so. 10 days later was the venom reaction. The venom is gone by then so it is an auto immune response. If it is bad, it can damage organs similar to what happens with brown recluse bites. I will have to be very careful If I get stung again

Just don't get stung!

We have ground wasps here too but not awfully aggressive. My problem is I hate wearing shoes (much to the chagrin of my dr) so I do occasionally get nailed.

We had supper out tonight at a place in Gretna. It was really good steak and chicken! I ended up bringing over half mine home. I am stuffed! There should be an emoji for that!

We have Yellow Jackets here that live in ground burrows and emerge about the time fruit gets ripe. If there is a blemish on an apple, they burrow in and feast out. The apple will look normal till you grab it, then it collapses in your hand and all these delightful hornets come out and sting you without prejudice. Sometimes they just fly out of the holes they have made in the fruit and go after you if you even go near the fruit.

We had Spanish Rice for dinner tonight....steak and chicken sound so much better...especially when you can bring home enough to have for lunch the next day.

Yes, like that!
