A nice lady at Sam’s Club was giving away free samples of this laundry additive called Oxyclean, so I took one. I don’t usually get my clothes very dirty, but every once in a while I have to do something like work in the garden or some other dirty yard work, and it can be hard to get grass stains out of your clothes. Sure enough, I had to dig up all the rotted vegetable plants that caught the fungus disease and my clothes got filthy. So I tossed in some of the Oxyclean and they came out really clean!

My dog got stung by a bee in the grass and he got really sick. It scared me half to death. I saw him start limping and licking at his leg, so I knew something was wrong. Then he started having trouble breathing and blood started coming out of his nose and his eyes. I flipped out and drove him down to the emergency vet. Thank GOD they took him right in and gave him a shot. He was still pretty sick for a couple of hours, but I thought he was going to DIE and I can’t believe a little bee sting would DO THAT to my little dog.

This was a bad day. The only good thing is that he is OK now. But it scared me worse than anything I can remember and I’m going on the warpath against bees now. Kill them all.
