A bit o wisdom

I have heard that when you get a bee sting you  should take a penny and tape it to the sting and leave it for a while. The copper in the penny will pull stinger out and actually make the affected area feel much better.

So yesterday I had a chance to test this out. I was in the pool with the boys and I felt something on my back and went to brush it off and realized it was a bee and it got me just as I got him off of me. So I went and got my penny and taped it on and the pain stopped immediately and then I left it on for 15-20 minutes and then when I took it off the stinger was stuck right there to the middle of the penny!

Amazing. Just a handy bit of wisdom
