Oh my! Does that happen often? Did you have a storm or something?


So it's not the fault of the welder's then ... UGH!!

Nah, not sure what happened. I'll find out later probably. Just got a call this morning asking me to go open an hour early to let them in & then go home I wasn't arguing with that or asking questions.

Ah!
Well I was gonna say I hoped you were paid to do that but I guess your a "salary" man now
So, is the job turning out to be what you wanted?

At first, no, not at all. Gotten on top of the paperwork now so I'm only at the back for most of one day a week and out playing with setups for customers the rest. It's pretty much now what I was doing before, thankfully.

Never had a doubt about you at any rate

I'm really not surprised to hear you say that, you really don't strike me as the "manager" type
DH has been offered those kind of position's in the past and always refused them ... sure wish he had stuck with UPS tho'; talk about some excellent insurance!! They even paid for hearing aids!! Nobody does that

Morning all. I'm home today with a stomach bug.

Sorry I missed everyone yesterday! Was just a crazy day. Another Monday so to speak.

Bobbi, you take care of yourself, continued prayers for you and your DH too!! So glad to hear you had some rain. Maybe that will keep the critters away for a bit. Praying that something comes up and you and DH can relocate to an area that's at least getting a little more rain. I know you want to be close to your family though.

Shad, hope you're feeling better today too!! Can't imagine how miserable that is without air!! Our heat index was 105 Monday, if you're getting the same system come through as what we had, maybe you'll get a break. We have three days (starting today) that are supposed to be below 80 degrees. It's really nice here this a.m. In the mid sixties.

Rose, sorry I missed you!! Glad you popped in to see us though! We miss you!!

Welsh, hope you get some good mixes. If you're like me, you'll have several duds, but then you'll find something wonderful, or at least good enough to satisfy.
I can't even imagine how much I've saved mixing my own. I am getting to the point that I need to try to come up with a couple new flavors. I've been vaping the same two for about a year now, and I'm kind of getting tired of them. So, when the proper motivation strikes, I'll play around with that...but for now...

Aw Jeff, been thinking about you!! Hope you get a break soon!!

Dale, would love to see pics of your new stuff if you have time.

Where is GG??? Hope all is okay with her!!

 

[daleron]

Good morning Lori
So sorry you're feeling bad today, hope it passes quickly for you
I plan to take a picture for you guys when I get it set up the way I want it. ( assume your talking about the new provari case )

Don't know where GG is, she's not even been playing her contest
I'm trying not to be so intrusive these days tho' so I haven't tried to contact her

 

[LoriP1702]

Three new ones.

Post it Notes from my Idiot Boss | delivered directly to my computer monitor on an all too regular basis…

 

[daleron]

[WelshVapour]

Sorry, I was breaking bad again..mixed up more

I came across that advice yesterday too, makes sense so I'll be doing that with juices I have no idea about before throwing nic at it.
You shall have a sample, gonna wait 3 days and try my bottle again see how it is & if it's right then I'll get a bottle out to you. You're ok with caramel & coconut right?

I did see her when I woke last night, laptop was still on with ecf up. Thought I'd probably catch her today though so went back to sleep.
Well, that's vapemail you're taking really good care of that provari, hope it knows how good it has it.

Good morning my Welsh friend! I would suggest a slight change to your theory... I mix a bit of base when I open a new bottle of nic. I taste that base with no flavoring in it to make sure it has a pleasant flavor and is not bitter or peppery. Once I know my nic is good, I mix bottles of the strengths I will be doing (I use old bottles from my pg and vg, mark the strength on the top and the label) and store them premade in my refrigerator door.

As I mix my flavors, I start at the lowest percentage of flavor that I think "will do it" and work my way up if it is too light. Remembering that all flavors together will equal the percentage of the flavor. Otherwise if you add 15 of one, 10 of another and 5 of 2 more you come up with 30% and that can be very harsh. I do love the super concentrate flavors and the gourmet flavors from flavorzone. I've never used over 2% total on any juice, the flavors are in a 10ml bottle but in the long run, I save a lot of money on the small amount required and the flavors are very good. I think I have sent you some of my DIY, if so it was flavor zone. For cremeB I use .6 ml of creme brulee and .1 ml of 7 star for a total of .7 ml flavor in 15 ml of base.

Good morning lovely lurkers!

Good morning lovely lurkers!

Good morning Bobbi
Hope you rested well!

 

[Chimney34]

Good morning Lurkers!
Yes! Yes! I'm here early. I tried to lay around but my back wouldn't allow me to so I got up & ran the vacuum, the dishwasher & a load of work clothes. Now I'm on the couch with a cup of hot tea. I see a nap in my future later today though

 

[balwin]

Good morning Bobbi
Hope you rested well!

I did thank you! And you? Fixing to go get my neb treatment started... this new neb treatment is much stronger than my old faithful..

Lori sorry to hear you are under the weather! Feel better! We will be ok, God takes care of us and I am sure He has some plan in all of this. Being patient is a bit hard at times though...

Welsh, my logic is if the base doesn't taste good when you start, it can't taste good when you finish! If my base is good flavor anything I add should only improve it.

Didn't expect to see you until this afternoon!
Sorry your back is bothering you so much, is it any better now that you're up and moving around?

 

[daleron]

I did also, thank you
Keep at those new med's, mom just got a new one (finally) that has made a world of difference for her and she's is just bouncing for joy

Huh! That's so so true Never even thought of that!

 

[WelshVapour]

That was a lot of info there Bobbi all makes perfect sense though. I'll follow your theory and see what goes on from there. I should really wait til I get a dripper before playing but I never did have patience. My eternity died so that's out but my tobh will be here early next week!

Chim!

Hey MD
Hehehe! I figured you'd be a lil shocked

Not really. I probably need to be off my feet more than anything else but the mess surrounding me was getting annoying I had to clean it up or else I wouldn't be able to relax at all until I took care of it.
It usually gets like this when I work that many days back to back.
