[Cindi]

John, OK you did it!!!  Good for you!!!!  This is going to be one of the funniest threads on earth.  I wonder how many of us have those special and beautiful pictures that make us all look like we are from that alien planet.  I love it!!!  So come on forum friends, put down your guard and show us all what you really look like after the bees have shown you their irritation.  I'll continue John's thread by putting in the picture of my Husband and one of myself.  The possibilities are endless.  Have the laugh of your life, greatest of days, and bring on those beautiful pictures you all know that you have to share, hee, hee    Cindi

I've never got it too bad, by my little son did.  He's 2 1/2 yo and like his brothers wants to be right in the middle of everything that i'm doing.

I felt horrible about this episode, and was reluctant to share, but I thought we needed at least one cute picture on here  .

Well, I had pulled a couple of supers with only a little honey stored, and had that setting by the shed.  Now most of the time, when the bees are robbing, they ignore everything but the food.  I've never had any problems, as long as I don't crush them....but this time they were mad...perhaps some bees from the hive that the super was from defending?

I was doing something with them, and he was watching, of course inching nearer and nearer (he LOVES bees!!) until he was maybe 5 feet away from the cloud of bees, when he started crying.  I rushed over knowing he got something, and he had a bee stuck to his eyelid and to his ear.  I ended up with one on my arm, but I didn't swell near so bad as he did.  Thankfully the swelling went down within a couple of days, but he was a bit miserable for a while.



The bandaid was just for the whole mental aspect of it, and that was as close as I could get it.

That was a time I felt like sticking a fire exstinguisher in the hive and letting them have it... but we'll just be a lot more cautious in the future!!!

Scadsobees,

Bummer! I know how you must feel. Is he afraid of the bees now?

OK. I said this once on another topic somewhere.... but really I must know..... How does one find someone's pain, suffering, and/or embarrassment funny?

[Scadsobees]

Hindsight, retrospect always brings out the humor which didn't exist at the moment.  Its easy to chuckle when we know all turned out well.  Plenty of times when I thought my head was going to blow up that I can laugh about now.

Scared of bees?  No, he's a boy...they don't learn lessons too well .  They love sitting watching the observation hive with me.  Kids are awesome...they love to do whatever we love to do.

Rick, what a picture, you are so mean (hee, hee).  I love to look at these pictures, it is funny how feel so protective over our children, glad you didn't torch your bees 

John, see what you thread started, now we can all laugh our guts out, yea!!!  Your friend will get more bee stings, no doubt about that.

Jerry, it really sounds like you are serious when you say you don't understand how other people's misery can make others laugh.  I cannot answer this question for you.  But, I know that it makes me laugh, I am not mean-hearted or narry a nasty bone in my body, but these things make me laugh.  Do they seriously not make you?  Maybe those sleep issues have affected you in different ways.  I think that good belly laughing at things that happen to people are good.  Now and then there are times when things are so awful that they are not funny, and most people don't laugh, they just say something like "awe, oh no", only certain bad things that happen to people are funny and there is a fine line.  Have a wonderful and greatest of day.  Cindi

Taken to coffee house. Look for "Pain = Funny"

[Scadsobees]

Don't worry, he'll appreciate that shiner when he gets bigger.  If his brothers are any indication, he'll add a few more to keep it company!!!!

I e-mailed this to my boss and he showed everyone this pic. It is still the must see pic at work. They all gasp and then, of course, laugh.

[Cindi]

Locusthoney, now that is one funnnneeeee picture.  Man do I laugh when I see these poor swollen faces, can't wait to see more, I have this evil side    Have a wonderful and greatest of days.  Cindi

[DayValleyDahlias]

It is comical to me as well...once I know someone is out of the woods as far as anaphylaxis...then I laugh so hard...good ole "dark humor" which I unfortunately have plenty of!
