Again, it's the milk part I want to add the smooth creaminess with and if I used too much on the first test batch, of course I'm gonna lower it.

I don't use milk, but I add cream(s) to my tea vapes; FA Fresh Cream 1% or FA Fresh Cream .5% + FA Vienna Cream .5%, but I always mix low (and FA flavors are strong), so I don't know if that helps. That's all I know.

Have you tried this? (Oh I got a new coil installed and it is seated PERFECTLY. If that coil comes loose it will be voodoo magic.

Okay, so I use rayon. Sometimes, it's hard to stuff enough rayon through the coil to really JAM the hell of it down into the hole with enough stuff (YOU HAVE to STUFF IT) without distorting the coil. What I do in such cases is I take tiny little balls of rayon (I also soak everything in eliquid so I know how much I am STUFFING down in there, and it doesn't have to like, be attached to the coil or anything, you just stuff stuff stuff with your screwdriver or whatever you are using until you are JAM packed with rayon in there and I am fairly certain (based on my experiments) you won't have a leaking problem.

STUFF until it is overflowing almost. The other side can be a bit looser if you want, but like JAM that rayon down in there, I think.

@FranC, we will leave early Friday morning. I mean we are cleaning as we are going and Friday will be the "mop ourselves out the door day with whatever we need for the cars and etc.

I still feel better today but I need a break. I am doing the kitchen . I am VERY good at packing up kitchens, but I still hate it.

I’m also using rayon, could be I still don’t have enough in there. But it’s getting better! Thanks Anna! I’ll keep trying

Today is confusing... mixed feelings. My son dropped off the grandchildren (four of them) Mom and I love having them over... but at the same time, her cat (17 years old) is dying (I know... have read many posts on here about people with older cats/dogs and having to "put them down") No need to tell me the stories (have followed all of them) and thank you in advance for support) but the reality we are going to have to put her down tomorrow (it's been four days of her crying... sometimes agonizing crying) We didn't tell the kids (put the cat in the garage) but mom and I know what we have to do... I can't seem to find the emojie for crying... :(
I’m very sorry. It’s the hardest thing I’ve ever done but probably the “rightest” thing I’ve ever done. Not much I can say that will help except that the sharp pain eases quickly.

An overnight steep has actually helped. I'm vaping a bit of my test batch right now and it seems to be heading in the direction I was going for.

Dude, I wasn't trying to criticize your love for florals (I just don't happen to like them although I DO like honeysuckle, almost I want to say it's sweet not a floral, IDK.) I was just saying OH YEAH lower the condensed milk. It's POTENT. I'm sure you will wind up with a mix you enjoy. No offense intended!

Good luck, Anna! You've got this!

I am not entirely sure I do, but thank God for Adderall and youtube music. LOL.

I will point out we once on the honeymoon did a couple 11 hour drives WITH a hyperactive 4 year old in the car, but we were getting fed up because we were not getting to where we wanted and sometimes you want to say, "Well, I was in the car all day, but at least I WENT somewhere."

LOL. Also, it was Iowa. That helped. We couldn't even find a Weekly World News to entertain ourselves with at truck stops, all they had was Penthouse Letters! I felt that was inappropriate for the dog AND the kid. LOL.

I kept a journal and sent it out. I found it. I would post that on my blog dude.

I'm good, no worries. The milky is gonna be tricky to nail down but right now, after an overnight steep, it's coming together.

    Somewhere between here and there
    So I mixed the LMN#. This is really good.

    That’s one of my favorites. I usually have a well steeped bottle in my cabinet.

    What was that app you are using to track food?

    The kitty has suffered enough.
    Thank you sweetheart... I know you have been through this before (previous posts) I might just go away for the night... choking up and not thinking straight... love you all... good night. I am strong (not so sure about mom... she seems OK but might have trouble actually following through on this) It is what is is and she (the cat) lived a very good life :)

    Aww...that’s sad. She’s had a good long life. You know what to do. Give her a hug and kiss from me. Poor thing. And take care of yourself too as I know it’s hard. :(

    Yes... that is where we are at... I agree... no looking back (thank you but we already have made the choice) it's all good, have lost many pets (including my own cat over 15 years old less than a year ago... I have come to accept these things)

    Myfitnesspal. It has a lot of functions...tracking food, water, exercise...but I just use the food part. It actually has different foods in the system with even different brands so you pick the food and the amount you ate. The amount can sometimes be tricky.
