Yesterday evening MDF and I went outside to blow off steam while CDF fixed supper. While she was swinging I was looking at our “false Morning Glory” plant and noticed it was attracting lots of butterflies and bugs that were feeding on its flowers.
So I was on my way to work and I had to stop for gas. While I was pumping a bug landed in between my collar and my neck. It didn’t feel big, but I tried to brush it out and that’s when I felt it grab my finger with its little legs and … OUCH… it stung me! Right on the index finger too. I never did see what it was, but since it didn’t leave the stinger in my finger it must have been a wasp or hornet. I joked when I got to work that if it hadn’t been my left hand I would have had to call in sick since I wouldn’t be able to use my mouse. 😉
I took some ibuprofen (from the bunny dispenser), but it’s still throbbing and is making it hard to type.
Yesterday afternoon we went for a bike ride. It was quite sunny, so
CDF got everyone’s sunglasses out of the van. MDF had hers
too. As we rode, she would look at me and grin, and was very cute.
We went around the neighborhood streets between Campbell and Hwy 117,
and rode for longer than we normally do. We also went down some streets
I hadn’t seen before, Linda Ln., etc. And saw a number of nice houses too.
It has been a nice relaxing weekend.
For a number of weeks now CDF has been having abdominal pain. First we thought she was pregnant. Then the pain got worse, the pregnancy tests came back negative, and we didn’t know what it was.
