First off though, had to take Mama Chak to the hospital yesterday morning. She was up at the crack of dawn Sat morning made waffles for breakfast came upstairs to take a shower. As she's coming out of the bedroom, she took a couple shuffling steps then called out "Daddy, come here right now". We shuffled back into the bedroom and she started balling her eyes out. Somethings terribly wrong papa.

Her speech was coming out really slow and not all too clear, she could hardly walk at all. So we changed clothes and rushed her to the hospital where they diagnosed that it was a minor stoke. She spent the night in the stroke unit for observation and we just got home a couple hours ago with some new meds and adjustments to the old meds. Talk about scary!

That sucks Chak. What do the meds do?

Papaw, that makes me feel better. I can get by with a gallon of milk per week as only 2 of us drink it, and I've got eggs running out my ears.

Always, I try to keep a decent back stock also. I recently cleaned out a couple shelves in my bedroom linen closet for overflow from the kitchen (no pantry). If you have Aldi in your vicinity it's worth the trip. We don't use a meat market, but we always have pork in the deep freezer. We also don't do much by way of sandwiches and quick foods. Lots of cooking always going on around here.

Debating on making peach jam today, have some really good peaches that are getting overripe. But I'd have to go to walmart first as I forgot that stuff yesterday..:facepalm:

It's a beautiful English pipe tobacco. Probably my top one or two English blends.

MVJ Dunhill (Early Morning Pipe Tobacco) 30/70 PG/VG @ 12mg Nicotine. VV Grand w/ 1.9 ohm coils and Cotton wicking.

Started into this late last night. At first I thought it tasted like burnt cotton, so much so I kept examining the wicks and squonking like crazy. Then I thought it tasted like stale Pall Malls. But as the new coil and wicks break in, I began getting a smooth, mild true tobacco flavor. This seems to do better at lower voltage, I'm probably around 8 Watts currently. But make no mistake; this is not an HHV type pipe tobacco, it is truly a strait tobacco vape. Quite tasty for those who prefer milder tobacco flavors. I've vaped maybe 1 ml so far, and careful examination shows the new coil still looks silver/ shiny, and no discoloration of cotton wicking. It would appear MVJ has corrected their filtration problems and are producing some quality true tobacco e-liquids. if there are any NET purists (Bronze) left around, I would suggest going by MVJ and taking a serious look at these 2nd Generation MVJ NETs.

Chak, I'm sorry to hear that you and Mama Chak had such a scary night. I'm so glad you were there and that she knew something was wrong. Sending my prayers for you both! She will need some help learning to slow down a bit, no doubt. Your turn to do some nagging. Give her a daily honey-do list that says "Go slower and don't try to do it all!" :)

Morning all!

Love my (large font) TOBACCO NETs! You're right, Adam doesn't get into them. Wish he'd do a couple of them. A nice Turkish (Oriental) and a Fire-Cured would be nice.

Good Morning Army. First and foremost; Chris, be there for Mama Chak. Make whatever arrangements need to be made, she's worth it.
Bridgette, once upon a time (1992) we were feeding my younger Brother (28 and fallen on hard times), Older Stepson (19), his girlfriend (18), son (14), daughter (12) Mamaw and I. $200 a week, plus Loaf of Bread/ Dozen Eggs/ Gallon of milk a Day. Supper consisted of: Family Pack (16- 20) Pork Chops, 2lb Macaroni, 1/2lb shredded Cheddar, three Large Cans Veggies, 1/2 Loaf of bread, Gallon pitcher of Sweet Tea (with another pot already brewed for after Supper). An hour later the 'Parade' to the Fridge would start again. Oh, the Memories...

Enjoy the Weekend Y'all, and Have a Safe and Blessed Day :)

done deal. Yes, she is worth it. Thanks Papaw.

I'm sure there are at least several there, Diane does an outstanding job describing the selections variety and strength.
Wouldn't hurt to look them over, General....

I will one day. I'm still trying to scale back and having some success. My juice inventory is looking more and more sparse all the time. It started to bother me having dozens and dozens of bottles of juice hanging around knowing I would never vape it all. I'm headed to the opposite direction now getting it down to only what I know I will vape. Takes awhile. In fact, I'm weeding through some old stuff today and putting it down the drain. Got some stuff well over a year old.

I'm going to be in Connecticut next weekend meeting the parents of our daughters fiancé.

Should be interesting....Rick's ex will be there tooo
The fiancé's parents have a summer BBQ party every year and I guess they want to meet the parents. Oy vey.

I'd rather be meeting RJ :wub:

You are allowed to bring weapons through the airport. FIL is ex-police and he brings his gun everywhere. It's got to be locked up and all that jazz, but there's no reason you can't bring a gun to that meeting :p

OK, here is what I am down to:

HHV
Dragon's Fire: 190 mls
CAT: 125 mls
Gaia: 10 mls
Maple, Eh?: 10 mls
Temptation: 8 mls
HHV Beta Sample: 2 mls

MOV
Apache: 40 mls

NETCOM
Balkan: 5 mls
Burley/Latkia Blend: 10 mls

GeJ
Vita Bella: 12 mls

Cravin' Vapes
Perique: 10 mls
Chocolate tobacco: 8 mls

That's only 430 mls and 12 flavors. Way, way,way down from what I had. And I should probably deep six the Cravin Vapes. I'll never vape that stuff. It's horrible! The rest is good stuff I will vape (except for the beta sample). Glad Adam didn't release that one. :)

I'm going to whittle it down to DF, CAT, and Apache before adding more (I need some more QnJ first up). Even then, I'm never going hog wild again like I did.

Could be a lesson for others who feel like their inventory is getting away from them.
