So I messed up on my numbering of the days before I start the internship. So what if I can’t count…
Today was a late start day for both me & my brother. My Aunt and I failed again to watch New Moon the night before. But today was a very lazy day. We had a cook out with our family, my Aunt and Uncle, and their best friend and his family. The food was delicious!
But early in the day, I took my sister out to play with the puppies my Aunt and Uncle have. She was running around with them and then stopped in one spot and was playing with the puppy named Rooster. All of the sudden she starts screaming and crying. I thought the puppy was just scratching her but when I got over there I saw she had stopped on a fire ant hill. They had climbed up her leg and were stinging her all over. I snatched her up and ran down to the pond. I dunked her legs in and started wiping off the ants as they started stinging me. I rushed her to my Aunt who brought her inside. The poor guy was covered in little bumps from them. I didn’t get stung as much as she did and they hurt like a b****! I could only imagine how it was for her. We had never encountered ants like this in Illinois.
Fire Ants
This is what they do - They sting you. It itches and burns. Then it turns into something like a white pustule.
After dinner Dad, Cory, Uncle Dusty, and I went fishing at one of his buddies ponds. My Dad was using one of new fangled contraptions on his pole and didn’t catch a thing. I threw a hot dog on my hook and had a fish literally jump onto my line. The thing jumped out of the water for my hot dog. I kept telling him to just use a hot dog…
We’re all exhausted so I’m heading to bed. And I know the entries aren’t extremely exciting but once I start my internship they will be so bear with me for now.
