This isn't knitting related, but it is beekeeper related. Last Wednesday I was out at night (a mistake) taking some frames of bees out of a hive to put into a small observation hive with glass sides. I must not have had my veil on properly, as I got stung on the lip! It swelled up quickly and badly. I ended up going to the ER in fear of having my tongue or neck swell up and compromise my breathing! It's all better now. Here's a picture.

OUCH! I remember clearly getting stung in the face once. It just was not fun.
Heal well!
Karen, I'm so glad you went to ER just in case. I know how painful a bee sting can be. I've been stung on my bum - yes, I sat on a bee that was drowsing on a warm bus seat. That was the most uncomfortable bus ride I've had :)
I'm happy to know you are recovering from this. Take care.
OUCH! Ugh...I'm so afraid of bees. Glad you went to the ER and that it's better!
Oh poor baby! Yuck! I don't come within a country mile of bees!
I hope by now your swelling and pain are over too!
I too live in Utah. (Tooele) I love your knitting stuff. I'm "Needle-Challenged" but had a mother who was a whiz!

Jill,
You might consider joining the knitting guild at Dave's Drugs in Tooele. We meet monthly and there are lots of friendly ladies who are very helpful.
Karen
