I did it!

Water? Really? I only use plain or plain/nic P.G. then add Loranns. To add vapor or stretch the juice you can add some Gylcerin from the drugstore (USP on the label) It's the same thing as V.G. but a bit thicker Do not dilute P.G. with water..it makes for watery juice that will leak out or kill a battery.
With just glycerin or V.G. you can use water to dilute..but just a tiny bit! If you make a flavor too strong..just add yout P.G. or V.G. untill it's a lighter taste!
When I did diy I used a tiny bottle I got at the drug store, it's a breath drop found at checkout or near the tooth brushes. That way I could try a couple of mg at a time.

I just diluted the spearmint and took a drop of the diluted stuff, that's what I meant. I may add a bit of the water to loosen the VG so to speak but I keep it in the thicker side, don't wanna flood stuff.

Don't give up selena, mint is the hardest to work with; try a different flavoring at first. The only mint I can work with is Cappella's Cool Mint, and I add it one drop at a time. If I decide I want to vape mandarin orange for the day, I will also add 1-2 drops of cool mint just to make it sparkle.

I will have to check that out... So today's project was; toasted almond mocha, and my take on pinkspot's pink & blu spot, I made red star= pomegranate, lime, and pineapple. I will be doing my versions of pink and blu spot and calling them pink/blu star. Whatcha think ladies?

 

[Seabrook]

Toasted Almond is one of my very, very favorite vapes. I like it by itself b/c the flavor is so outstanding. The red star sounds really good! Haven't heard of pinkspot's pink and blue, spot - whazzat?

 

[selenamstar]

Pink spot/star=raspberry, pineapple, &lime. Blu spot/star= blueberry, pineapple, & lime.

 

[Seabrook]

Thanx. The only thing I don't have is the lime. I meant to get that to mix it with black licorice; an ECF member in a neighboring city made the black licorice/lime juice, and yumm, I couldn't stop vaping it. A suprising comibnation. One of my favorite club drinks is anisette and OJ, so I thought I would try that too.

Dying to DIY, but no room here at my place to do it gotta wait to go to Gary's or school. Hate living here some days.

If you want to do DIY..get a small plastic tackle box to hold your supplies..it only takes a tiny bit of space to do the work. When you are done clean up and put everything back in the box..under the bed or in a closet it goes! It's fun and doesn't have to be a huge production. The best way to learn is to buy some plain or with nic in it P.G. or V.G., maybe a small bottle of each because Glycerin or V.G. adds a lot of vapor. Then get a couple bottles of Lorann's for your first trys. Banana, cherry chocolate..what ever. These can be had on line or sometimes at kitchen stores, craft stores or party stores. Call around.
A couple drops to start..in a 5 ml bottle.

Check! I actually have quite the little set up, you would be surprised what this gal has picked up already... I have syringes, blunt tipped 18g needles, med cups, flavorings from lorann and PA (just ordered more this afternoon!),100mg VG/PG blend, gloves to handle that stuff, the tool box, if you must know even my labeler that I have had for many years has moved into yet a new hobby *lol*... The reason I will not DIY? My roomate aka owner of my place to stay, is a hoarder, and I am loosing even my own desk and computer to her, it's pretty damned sad when it's yours and you feel as if you are not welcome to use it... She is slowly over the last year pushed me back to my room. My allergies are bad here and can't smell it wasn't all smoking sadly. So I don't do thing I enjoy here to much b/c I don't have my space to myself, the dog may come down and eat something and finally kill himself as well. Nothing is sacred around here with hoarder and dog w/ no manners. I would move out but it's free ATM, and it's what I can afford, currently I am thinking about pulling out what I do have here and moving out, I have friends that have offered, and it's starting to sound really good. But doing school and moving are not conducive either. So I bide my time.

 

[selenamstar]

Muhaha I decided to DIY anyways. Cleaned my desk moved her crap, and made caramel rolls, and strawberry-kiwi juices today, plus added a few drs o' maple to my waffle. You know after the flavorings you really don't need the H2O but it is handy to have in the kit none the less, many uses for distiller water.

 

[Fudgey]

Wooohoo!!! Take back some space!!!

 

[selenamstar]

It just freaking pisses me off to no end, I'm sorry to vent. But I really hate it here. I am a neat and organized person and I live in chaos. She wanted to "work on the house" while I am on break and I can't even get her to get her ... off the couch and do a dammed thing. She has been home from work now for 2months & you think no matter how crappy you feel at times, if you have energy to go out and have a drink with friends, you have energy to clean your pig sty!
**Steps off of the soap box**
Ok really sorry I vented about my home life. Thanks for letting me & being cool!

 

[Mary Kay]

No problem! I told you guys I watched all the Hoarder shows I could so when I moved to a smaller house I wouldn't fill it up. It worked..I was so upset by the shows..I didn't keep a lot of junk. I was never a horder in the first place, but it sure made it easier to toss stuff.
I can't imagine what it must be like to live with a horder. They seem to have NO bounderies. my heart goes out to you, especially with all the goals you have.

 

[Seabrook]

I'm so glad you tried the DIY route! Don't let her low-energy level drain your higher one. Just love and forgive her like a sister, and it could never happen. To me, she sounds like she may have a certain level of depression if she has no pride in her environment. With your higher level of energy, you just might be able to pull her up to yours. Wouldn't that be great?

 

[selenamstar]

It would be great, and I had those aspirations when I moved in a year ago Sea, but it has been squashed. I do love her like a sister I just don't love what she is doing, and how she is treating me. I am just ready to pack up and be homeless. I have another friend whom is a college student, and co worker and he has offered to have me come stay and Gary has been heck yeah go! He's even supportive of me just packing it in period, he does not like my situation, he thinks some of the stuff she does is abusive to me, maybe I'm too forgiving.

On another note, I love my DIY and have been having a great time of it.

 

[selenamstar]

So update on the roommate situation, she now wants me to move out as much as I want to. So spring session is over May 19th my other friend from work who also attends college is going to very happy to have me join him! Haven't told Gary the latest news yet, waiting a few min till it sets in. OMG! I am free!

 

[classwife]

(I really think this would be the healthiest for you !) ((hugs))

 

[selenamstar]

I agree Classy I feel as if a huge weight was just lifted off my shoulders. I will no longer be the house elf so to speak.

 

[CES]

Sounds like things are going to work out much better for you Selena.
