discovered there was a hornet in the house when it wandered across our foot and i swiped at it, thinking there was a hair drifting down our leg or something, and not expecting something alive. it stung us, of course. but we didn't even realize that happened until mom saw it and verified it's a hornet. before that, when we were looking, she tought it was a horsefly. we said, surprised that didn't hurt more than it did. i'd have never guessed that was a sting. mom however is deathly allergic, and we can't find it. so either the cat will find it and there will be battle, or it will leave, or some accident will happen because we're blind. so now we are in the office with her in case it gets her, because she has no epi pens, of course. the amusing part of all this was us tiptoeing back into our room for our phone, vape, keyboard and coffee, talking about it's not my territory now, it just got taken over.
