We went through RSV as well, many many years ago with our first born. <br />I too have been attacked by yellow jackets, a whole nest of them on my legs and body and hands. I would be so delighted to take you into my hives....it's such a different place. It's sad that we have things that mimic each other in looks....that's why looks can be deceiving. Some one nearby once told me (we were eating a "low country boil") that one of my bees just stung them.....it was a yellow jacket! When in flight they look just like honeybees, but honeybees don't light onto you and sting....when a honeybee lands on you they are just like a butterfly...looking to see what you are or looking for a place to rest, that's what I find with my bees anyway. A yellow jacket is a meat eater that's why they show up at outside eateries. Unfortunately honeybees can show up as well, because they like the sweet sodas, and so do the yellow jackets.<br />I hope you can overcome your fear, I can't say I have completely over come mine, I still get fearful from time to time, but when I'm with them I am reassured of their gentleness.<br />Hope to hear more from you :o)<br />Thank you for leaving a comment.Juliehttp://bizzybuzzinhoneybeezness.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6917206942948875512.post-53100156773412171492010-04-23T18:43:57.276-07:002010-04-23T18:43:57.276-07:00I have to say that I was quite nervous while readi...I have to say that I was quite nervous while reading this post! I have been super paranoid about bees, wasps, and any bug with stingers since I was a small child. I was stung under the neck by 5 yellow jackets when I was wee. Not a good reason since I'm a lot older than that, now, but that's where the paranoia began. Since becoming a mommy years ago I have put on my big girl pants and decided to buck it up! Besides...I really don't want to pay boatloads of money for natural raw honey. : )<br />Great blog!Carmen at Old House Homesteadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09283325806078453964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6917206942948875512.post-87286526006863974702010-04-18T12:30:25.533-07:002010-04-18T12:30:25.533-07:00Reba, when I think of having to go into them on da...Reba, when I think of having to go into them on days that I'd "rather" be doing something else, I feel overwhelmed...until I get into the hive...they are soo amazing! So gentle and calm it automatically calms me. I truly believe that these are GOD'S chosen insects LOL I mean think about it, they are the only insect that gives us food, they are mentioned in the Bible, they are up there with lambs! And they are just as gentle!<br />Yes, I love my bees and the "work" is "fun"!Juliehttp://bizzybuzzinhoneybeezness.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6917206942948875512.post-91672652123580391932010-04-18T07:35:57.332-07:002010-04-18T07:35:57.332-07:00Amazing the work (fun) you have with the bees!!!Amazing the work (fun) you have with the bees!!!rebanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6917206942948875512.post-73772471492320811062010-04-18T06:39:39.398-07:002010-04-18T06:39:39.398-07:00This was the first time we've ever seen one to...This was the first time we've ever seen one too Angie!
