Has anyone else ever gone to ix up a recipe that you know you like, and while getting ready to mix, thought to yourself "I bet it would be good if I did xxxxx" and so on the fly made a significant change to the recipe? And then got done, looked the 120ml bottle, and wondered if you had just made a mistake? If I was gonna experiment, why didn't I do it with a smaller bottle? Oh well, Guess I'll see what happens.

I just did that a few weeks ago,although i only did a 30ml,but still risky haha.Mine was a "well if it's this good with these %,i can increase this and that and make it even better",your results may vary,but mine was a huge fail,i turned a great juice into something that i don't ever want to get anywhere near my mouth again,and now can't even bring myself to mix another batch of the original because i'm afraid it will give me nightmares of the disaster haha.

Good Morning everyone! Thanks to all of you as well.
It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood. Unfortunately that means I guess I need to mow...

After awaking to the dog yakking on the floor next to my bed I did manage to sleep a couple extra hours this morning. I'd still be in bed, but I just can't let myself stay in bed past noon (even though I probably need it)

I think it's time to clean tanks and whatnots in prep for this upcoming week Still need a means to store/organize flavors (since I'm not sure the original vape cave is moving to the basement. Maybe it should - at least I had the basic organization I liked.... Hrmmmm Decisions, decisions.....)

So get up, do as little as possible for a couple hours, then take a nap. Problem solved!

 

[DingerCPA]

I like the way you think, Brother

I. Am. An. I-D-10-T.....

I'd loaded up two trays of THICK CUT bacon to cook on the grill. Had the burners (yes, all of them ) turned as low as possible. Came back down here for a "few" minutes. Started to "smell" something (grill is just outside one of the basement windows.)

Found two pans of MELTED BLACK GOO

DAMMITOL!!!! No bacon sammiches tonight.

But, the basement/chick cave is coming together QUITE nicely. We're both down here working on whatevers. Got the Wii hooked up to the new TV and we're watching Netflix (Minions movie!) Not too displeased that Kuntry Kable channels don't have audio now. SO can be down here putzing and have good source of entertainment.

First time in 12 years that the basement has been USABLE space.

Nubs the minions. Nubs Netflix and snuggles. Did that a lot this weekend. Also crafted more items out of paracord. I am enjoying this stuff more and more. Starting to sound old here, but I sat out on the back porch in the cool evening and let my glorious mane down (**head is actually shaved**) and had a beer, paracord project, pooch beside me, and a dark pipe vape. Too me that is heaven.

Good morning my favoritest vape fam!

Yeah,40-45 watts seems to be my sweet spot with my coils around .35 ohms.Occasionally i will bump it up to around 50 watts,but that doesn't last long before i end up lowering it back down.My blue one will be here tomorrow,and i have to work,so i will have to suffer all day knowing my new toy is sitting at home waiting on me haha.
As for the overtime,i hate it.I don't make huge money,but i make enough to get the bills paid,and still have a little spending money,and that's all i need,i don't want to work more than 40 hours a week,i just hate it haha.That is the one downfall to where i work though,during the winter time,especially January through mid March,we get so slow that i'm lucky to get 25 hours a week if that,but from mid July through the first part of September,i average around 60 hours a week,working 6 days a week.If it were the opposite and we worked all the overtime in the cold months,i probably wouldn't mind it so much,but after working all those hours in 100+ degree heat,my only day off,i can't do anything because i'm exhausted,so most of my summer gets spent doing nothing in my free time.

My orange Fuchai showed up on Saturday! Along with the CoilArt Mage. So, I threw a 0.25Ω SS316L build in the Mage and parked it on top of the Fuchai. Set the TC to 450°F and let it rip. This thing ROCKS! The tank, the mod, everything! The Mage only holds around 3mL, and it guzzles juice like there's no tomorrow. Was a bit tricky to wick, too... leaked the first tankful right out the air slots. Packed a bit more rayon in there, and it's been good to go ever since. I haven't tried wattage mode yet, because TC mode with SS is working beautifully! I can definitely see why you would buy a second Fuchai!!
I know what you mean about the overtime. Most of my job is outside work, and summer time in Houston is not a good time/place to be working outside! Still, though... my straight 40 hour checks are just enough to keep the lights on and food on the table, so I don't mind the overtime... when I can get it.

I have to tell y'all about a texting convo I had with my daughter yesterday. She works in an ENT clinic at Duke. A few months ago, she sends me a text telling me that Brett Eldridge(up and coming country singer) is a patient at the clinic and she had met him. So I was at break yesterday and I get a text from her saying that Brett came in yesterday. Seems that he gave one of her coworkers a couple of tickets for the concert last night. He's opening for Keith Urban. Her coworker couldn't go so she offered the tickets to Laura. Laura didn't take them because she had no one to go with her. I told her I would have taken off work, taken a point and went with her because I love Keith Urban! She said that she didn't know that and I told her that she should've texted me. She found out later that the tickets were for front row and had meet and great passes attached. I was mad at her and depressed for the rest of the night! Lol

There is just so much wrong in that post.... I now haz a sad...

More times than I can count, Brother.... and probably more fails than successes.

SO's niece is Developmentally Disabled. (The umbilical cord had wrapped around her neck, cutting off oxygen prior to birth.) They didn't expect her to live past a few months. Niece will be 32 this fall

We met when SO and I went to Disney World with her and her housemate (and SO's SIL) about 5 years ago. Niece has since learned to text and FB message (incessantly sometimes ) Took a couple of days, but Niece warmed up to me (to the chagrin of SO )

Just had a lovely little chat with her. Sentences are "broken", like sign language (of which I need to learn more....) But, context is quite easily conveyed. My heart just melted when Niece signed off "Love Mary", to which I immediately responded "Love "Niece" ".......

Now that's a wonderful 'feel good' story! Thanks for sharin' that one, Darlin'!

G'night y'all. One full week since my last cigarette!

AWESOME!!! First week is done and over with! That is a HUGE accomplishment, Brother! Congrats and Man-Hugs!!!

G'mornin', Brother of the Skull! Sounds like you had a pretty relaxing weekend. I spent most of Saturday playin' with new vape toys, and most of Sunday starting demolition on the downstairs half-bath... still got a ways to go on that project... *groans*
