it's exciting, isn't it? i do have one caution for those of you yet to install packages.
i chose to do mine without gloves and veil. lazy, in a hurry, etc. that would have been no problem except for two things. i did not have my hair braided tightly enough and worse.....the cell phone rang in my pocket while i was in the middle of dumping a box of bees. even at this point i would have been ok if i hadn't answered the phone.....you can probably see where this is going.....
between my ear and the phone a bee got trapped. it stung the he** out of me. as i took a swipe at it, i upset one tangled in my hair. it nailed me in the scalp and got squished in my hair.
as i told my brother (after he caught his breath from laughing) it's really hard to answer the phone with a hat and veil on. i was expecting a call..... of course if i ever thought to push the little speaker button, that problem would be solved.
anyway, this goes into the same file as putting the supers together with the handles inside.
