Hola ..

Not much to report today .. that bright yellow orb hangs in the blue sky ..

My yards a quagmire due to the rains this week ..

6 days till my second vaccine is fully integrated, for whatever that's worth ..

 

[DavidOck]

If nothing else, some peace of mind.

 

[FranC]

Dd and I got our first shots today. 2nd will be April 10th.

Good morning. It's a bright, sunny 27 degrees out there this morning, but it's going up to 63 this afternoon! That's a very good thing because I'm going to our daughter's house today to paint her powder room. She doesn't know much about painting rooms and has been discouraged with her efforts so far. With the weather so nice we should be able (I hope) to send the boys out back to play as long as the back yard isn't a swamp from all the rain. Her 4 year old already "helped" her by painting a section of the wall while she cut in. The paint is a very dark green so he painted naked so he wouldn't get any paint on his clothes.

 

[MikeE3]

Thanks for the reminder but I forgot what it was. Maybe the dang tank.

ah ha ... it was probably the Z-Atty Pro.

Looks familiar.

Morning, all, and happy Sunday.

More rain here, only low 40s overnight, but freezing level and snow still down about 2500', so that's good. (As in more snow there and not here!)

I had a visitor

 

[Nermal]

Cute little feller. I hope he's found a good home.

 

[Anise]

Good afternoon everyone!
Hope everyone is having a good day today.

I know snakes are very good to have around, but they just creep me out. Not sure why this should be, but I couldn't handle my daughters corn snake in the house as her pet and I really did try to like him. This guy is a garter snake? Will he stay in the GH or will you show him the door?

 

[Janet H]

Ugh, the dining room is going to be a lot easier to paint than a small powder room! The boys were so good though which was a surprise. Our daughter decided to paint her pale peach powder room a deep green so several coats were necessary. We got 2+ coats on the cut-in and the first coat rolled on the walls. Looks pretty messy until the 2nd coat gets put on tomorrow, but it's going to look stunning with the white trim. Just going to take awhile trying to paint with a 2 and 4 year old running around. Long day, but feels good to get something accomplished.

He left the GH but Im sure he’s around here somewhere. He can return if he wants but he won’t be able to get inside once he grows to maturity…he won’t fit through the 1/2” wire in the top half of the GH which is the only way in for him.

 

[DavidOck]

Then again, he could get in, get fat on all the bugs, and never get out

Morning, misfits.

More rain, more snow higher up.

Q: How to tell if you have too many mods?
A: When you sell off 9 Provari's on a Sunday afternoon and don't miss them.

#9

This one was a bit hard to sell. It was my 1st Provari and the setup that finally got me completely off cigs. Until I got it, I sent a month on 510 stick's with cartridges, then a month with eGo's and carto's and/or carto-tanks. Then along came the Provari with Ikenvape IO6 dripping atty's and finally no more cigarettes touched my lips.

We ordered our from e-cigs end of Aug. 2011. Janet quit smoking on day 1 when her 808's arrived. It took me until Nov. 2011 to quit smoking for good. Haven't had a cig since Nov. 13, 2011. I'll always remember the date because the 14th is our Son's birthday and I was finally able to tell him I stopped smoking. He replied, "Pop, that's the best birthday present ever".

You had a good sale, Mike

 

[MikeE3]

You had a good sale, Mike

I was pleased but I literally couldn't get away from the computer from about 1pm to 6pm answering posts in the thread and PMs to me.

Today will be a lot of packaging and shipping label printing, but that's OK too because the sale went so well. It wasn't really about making money as much as getting rid of surplus mods not being used and not needed for the 'stock-up stash'.

I've got another 'for sale' going with tanks, but that ones not moving along so good. Oh well.

EDIT: and 'no', @Uncle Willie I'm not buying more Zenith coils with the money.

 

[MikeE3]

What the heck we lost electricity. Janet just called the Electric company and said it will be out until about 1pm because they are doing some kind of upgrade. Nice of them to give us notice.

Of all days to happen. My laptop battery doesn't hold a charge very well. I'd better get those shipping labels bought at least before the batt runs down.

Hola ..

I don't know how it is in other parts of the Country, but around here, thousands of job openings are going unfilled .. people, apparently, don't want a job ..

Inside eateries are now allowed 50% occupancy .. yet, all are pretty much staying at 25% .. why .. ?? They can't get employees ..

Same scenario with labor jobs at Factories / Construction / etc .. they have the work, yet can't get folks to take the jobs ..

The liberalization of the Pandemic Unemployment Insurance Program has to be the blame .. it provides no incentive other than to sit at home on your .... and play "World of Warcraft" all day ..
