Yellow Jacket stings, what really works?

Somehow a yellow jacket got in our bedroom yesterday, unnoticed, and stung me after 2am. It was on our comforter, and when I moved, it got my arm. It hurt like the dickens for several hours after. But now, my for arm is swollen, red, hot, hurts, and itches on top of that lol! I put insect bite cream on it, which did nothing. Ice helps, but is getting annoying to hold on all the time. We don't have any benadryl (sp?) in the house, but if it works, then I'll ask DH to stop at Walmart to pick up. Or I'm open to anything else that would work. I don't really care about the redness, or ugly swelling, cause I won't win a beauty contest regardless. But the itching and pain it driving me nuts. I already tried Excedrin for the pain, but it didn't help much. We only have so much cash flow till payday, so I really trying to find what will work the first time, kwim?

OT: So, we finally heard back from disability for Dh's ESRD.

And it is good and bad. The good news: We are approved. Yay! And the bad news: The first check won't be until January. It seems that there is some sort of qualification period. I have no clue what we are going to do until then. I am thinking about contacting a lawyer about it, but from what I googled, I'm not sure there is anything we can actually do. I've been thinking about getting job myself, but to be honest, we had the transmission go out in my Sienna van back in March and it is going to be 1800 to have it fixed, which is why isn't fixed now. So we are borrowing a truck from my parents and his car is a stick (I have tried and tried, please don't laugh, I just can't get it) and he can't drive it with the fistula in his arm, plus it doesn't have any ac and the windows don't go down anymore and he can't get sweaty b/c of the cath in his chest (infection would go straight into blood stream). It's really just a ton of drama and crap. So basically, if I go to work, he won't be able to get to his doctor appts not to mention dialysis 3x a week. And then I'm constantly going to have to take time off for all of these appointments and not to mention the hospital stays we've already had, it's been so random. Unless its someone really understanding, I don't think it will even be worth it to get a job. I have applied for some manager positions (I have no experience in anything but retail) about 3-4 weeks ago for some businesses around here, but I have not heard anything and when I call they say that the manager will call if they are interested that they don't take personal calls about applications. I don't know what to do anymore about this. And even if I do get a job, it won't even make a dent in our bills, I will be lucky to make 10 an hour.

Help - handling time revisions

I am so confused! Honestly, I am very adept at selling on Ebay but when it comes to new 'rules', I can't seem to get hang of the changes! I am aware that by the 22nd I need to revise all of my "older" store listings and add the handling time, shipping time. Ebay even called my house last week to remind me. I tried to follow the instructions and do it through bulk editing (I use only Ebay, no hosting sites). Well, apparently what they call bulk and what I call bulk are two different things, because I still had to go to each auction and add those options (though they did come up on the same page). I just don't have the time, patience, AND my computer seems to be really slow when working on Ebay. So my question that I can't seem to find the answer to is if i don't do this will they disappear or will they show as unsold? If unsold, I think it would be easier just to edit them and relist. But if they disappear, oh no! Also, is there a way to tell what store listings already have those options..I can't figure out what I've already done and what needs to be done! Maybe I need to pay someone to do this for me~Thanks in advance!!

OT kinda legal question

Try and make it short. I have 4 nieces, when my sister died, Hannah went and lived with sister # 2, then after niece 2 moved, Hannah went and lived with sister # 1. Hannah father died also 3 years ago so when she went to live with sister # 1 a good part of the monthly check she gets from my sister goes to niece 1. Hannah will be 18 next month and wants to move out on her own, she is a senior this year and she doesnt get along with her sister or bil much at all but she really had nowhere else to go. Niece 1 said she cant move out and that she will take her to court to make her stay? Now your considered a adult at 18 so would Hannah have a problem moving out anyway? Can Katie actually take her to court and get them to make her stay with her? We just figured that Katie didnt want her to leave because face it, Katie will miss out on the $$$ she gets every month from hannah checks. kwim. I dont think legally there is anything Katie can do to make hannah stay. Hannah and my ds Gary are really very close so he said the same thing, he didnt think Katie could "make" hannah stay there. Hannah has had it a little rough losing both her parents in a matter of 3 years at such a young age but she also cant wait to get out "from under Katie" at the same time. TIA

I Am Speechless - literally! WWYD?

Since we had heard nothing about the Obama speech from our daughter's school we asked her teacher about it at the end of school Friday. She told us that they were opting not to show it. She said it was a District decision because it's political, and they don't teach religion or politics at school. whatWHAT???? Then, I found out from friends that their children elsewhere in the same District are seeing it. I went to the District website, and they have a long statement about how they have left it to the discretion of the individual classroom teacher whether to show it, and whether to use the curriculum provided, but that parents could opt out. She INSISTED that it was a District decision, and not the decision of the individual teacher or school. She said it was against District policy to show it.

The pair I have(from target) is a bit big for DD and it sits about 2 inches above the knee. that's a one inch band and one inch or sock. Will this look okay, or is it a fashion faux pas?

Hi-- I have 2 GK Elite leotards to list. I am wondering how you tell if it is a child size small or adult size small? I would think this was for a child, but gymnasts are pretty tiny. The tag just says small. The other one I have is just marked large, but it honestly does not look much bigger than the small one. Thanks

Sold any Christmas dresses lately?

I am wanting to rid of my kids clothes. Most of what's left is holiday dresses? Think they will sell now? Have you sold any in the past week or so for a decent price?

Grrrrr,,,Help Me Write This Negative Feedback

Won auction on 8/25/09 and paid immediatly for item. It was needed for a wedding I am going to on Saturday. I emailed the seller several times to see if it was shipped yet and got no response. I opened up resolution case this morning to try too see if maybe they could help. Seller refunded my money, no explanation, no "Sorry for ya" No nothing. I really needed this item, and now it's too late to order another and have it reach me in time. I am so flippin' mad right now. I think it;s really poor to not answer somebody. If they did'nt want to send it, tell me and I would have had time to shop elsewhere. His customer service blows, and I need some witty feedback for him I have already added them to my BBL, so they cannot retaliate Suggestions?

Decorating help please!! Flooring, paint etc.

We are renovating our house. It was completely gutted, and an addition is being added out the front, and up for the second floor. I will put pictures of the plans in the second post so you can see what the layout will be. I need help with paint suggestions for two of my girls rooms (2yrs and baby), also the master bedroom, bathrooms, kitchen, and dining room/living room(they share walls) Flooring, I want dark hardwood even though I am hearing bad things about how it shows every spec of dirt. I would love to see some pictures of flooring. I will also post pictures of the beams we had to put up to take the walls out. I wanted them to look like nice wood beams, but my contractor said that look is 70ish I am not sold on the idea of drywall humps in my ceiling though. If anyone has them, please post pictures!

E-Check Help - Please!

What does it mean when an e-check has been canceled? Someone paid me with an e-check on Saturday and it was marked as pending; with a date of September 10 for clearance. When I checked this morning, it said canceled and there were no other details. I'm just not sure if paypal does this or if the buyer did it. Buyer has not contacted me. Thanks!

And the darn thing scolds me for not reaching my goal on time! Seriously, I can't even get respect from a half-arsed workout game? lol Besides I haven't been on the Wii in months, how does it know when I reached my goal? Think I can return it after I smash the parts?

OT-- DS health class--earn an extra A for working out w/the teacher

Ok so DS brings home this sheet from health class and in addition to the regular homework-- they have to read a 2 pg health article every weekend and highlight parts of it and write about 5 things you learned from the article- if article is from the internet, it has to be a 4-5 pg report. Anthything less will give you a 50% grade. Once a week the teacher has them walk a set course during class time... you have to walk it exactly and do not stop at any point in it; or you will get an F grade for the day. tardy 5 times=F grade entered into the gradebook-- each tardy therafer will result in an additional F being added into your grades. Then it has how you can earn extra A's-- you can go work out with the teacher after school-- up to three times a week for 45 min, lifting weights-- and earn an extra A for each time. Then on Fridays, after school, teacher has a 60 minute walk.. to earn yet another A. Sign up and record all your physical activity and get an A added into your grade for the semester. Now Im all for getting kids to be more physically active but this sems to be a bit biased/unfair in my opinion. The kids that are able to do these physical challenges will get a better grade than those who dont... and it wont matter what grades you got on actual homework or tests. Im seriously concerned about this class!!

just found out DD hasn't been getting breakfast at school! OT

She's been in school for over a month. They mentioned they don't serve breakfast the first week (really 3 days) and started the next week. DD just got a think in her backpack stating they will be starting breakfast next week! In k-5 and in 1st grade they went to breakfast at a certain time every morning this is the same school so I figured she'd do it this year as well. I didn't realize she hasn't been eating until this note saying they were going to start eating. It's no wonder the teacher complains she can't get her to concentrate she's freaking hungry. DD says the teacher has been having them have their snacks for breakfast...I've been sending usually small snacking foods nothing sufficient for a breakfast. I'm really upset that I didn't not know this until now. Would you be upset?"This must be Thursday, said Arthur to himself, sinking low over his beer, I never could get the hang of Thursdays."

What do you think Baby Phat or knock off?

Does anyone know if this is authentic Baby Phat? Or how to find out if it is or not. There isn't a tag on the inside of the jacket. The only tag is on the inside of the dress. All it says is size 6, hand wash cold, U.S.A. The dress and the jacket are completely lined with satin. It's really cute, but I have the feeling it's not real. TIA, Kari

Did anyone's kids mention the big speech at school

Our district decided that they would not let the kids watch the speech on Tues. They taped it, and then decided to show all the kids the taped version on Wed. So last night as I was folding laundry in my room I had Obama's address on, my dd7 walks in and says "Oh No, that guy is talking on TV again". I forget that they were showing it to the students on Wed.. So we talked about the speech that he gave to the students. She said Obama said to stay in school, go to school everyday, try your best, then..................he just kept saying the same things over and over again. She claimed that she got so tired of listening to the same thing over and over again she put her head down to rest. I just thought it was funny. Parents on both sides were making such a big deal about it. I don't think my dd was harmed in any way by listening to someone say to stay in school and try your best, well that was all she got out of it.

Traffic Down???

My traffic is down by almost 75% compared to last year. I have more items listed and a lower prices than last year. I am running just as many if not more auctions and FP. It seems the only thing going up is my fee's. Is it just the economy or should I be doing something different? How is your traffic?Julie
