Awhile ago my sister posted about how pennies help bee stings. I thought, "What in the world, I've never heard of such a thing?" I had always just used baking soda mixed with a little water, isn't that what everyone else uses? The other day I was outside sitting on a bench while my kids were playing when I felt something very sharp and painful on the back of my arm. Sure enough, there was a bee stinging me! I just sat there, not saying a thing, just looking at my arm. Then I remembered the pennies that my sister had talked about. I ran inside and grabbed a penny and taped it to my arm where the bee stung me. About two hours later I took the penny off and there was no trace of anything ever stinging me! It really does work! Who knew that pennies could actually help with bee stings? Craziness I tell you, craziness!
To many of you this is going to sound silly. When did people start using only one space after a period or a question mark in a sentence? Apparently it's been going on for a long time, but nobody told me. I have actually noticed this on many of your blogs and wondered about it. I have recently learned that that's what they're teaching in schools now, one space after a period. I guess I am out of the loop. It's a hard habit to break, changing two spaces to one space. Is anyone else in the dark on this or am I the only one?
Pinchy was belly-up this morning. Sorry honey, I know you loved him, but it's probably for the best. I am sure he is happy now in crawdad heaven with his crawdad brothers and sisters.
I am very particular when it comes to doing my laundry. Everything has to be separated into the "correct" pile and folded in the "correct" way. I sort my laundry into the following piles:
