When this started I never imagined working from home for six months...now it may even be longer. Just amazes me. So it kinda puts pressure on me. There is no excuse for my house to not be spotless [emoji23], me exercising and in shape :unsure:, and my crap together in all ways. [emoji38] It hasn't happened yet though....:rolleyes:
I've been working from home over 2 years. Net I put in longer work days because of the breaks for home related stuff.

Our place spotless? I have a bridge to sell you... [emoji16]

    But your house smells so good. As soon as I opened the mailbox, I knew it was your package cause I could smell the coffee. :D

    A lot of us mix our "base" in much higher quantities. Makes mixing flavor easy, measure them, top off with the premixed "base". Done. (Well, except for clean up :) ) And minimizes the times one needs to handle - and expose to air - the high strength nic bottle.

    Since most flavors come in PG, that premix should be slightly lower on PG than what you want to end up with. With the nic, since the flavors will dilute the final mix a bit, that should be a bit higher than the desired end point. Of course, if you're mixing to different nic levels, you might want to leave it out of the pre-mix base.
    If all my bottles are full I have about 1500ml of base mixed with 6% nic. I measured the nic in each bottle but add VG and PG by eye. Close enough for me.

    Isn't their a Percentage of Water too? Cause that VG is syrupy. I didn't quite get everything you said it I'm rushing to just have something to Vape 4 now & its not looking too great :eek: so any help is appreciated & I'll be rereading your input.

    I vape roughly 75-80% PG and 20-25% VG

    Watching the movie Chef (2014), a fantastic movie, and reading all these food related e juice recipes over the last year or so.. I'm inspired to get back in the cooking game.. but recently buying a $60 30ml bottle of CBD is inspiring me to become a hemp farmer.. but, I'm also wanting to get back into the IT world. All of the above?? [emoji38][emoji38][emoji38]
    there's just not enough hours in the day.
    It really is a good flick, that grilled cheese he makes for his son makes me hungry for one everytime I see it.

    Anything new on the vaping front, Mel?
    I had just enough room for the 11 boxes of.8 z coils I got today. No idea where I’ll put the 15 boxes of 1.6 z coils that should be here tomorrow or the 15 boxes of mesh coils.
    Waiting to see what Nov. Brings. I'm thinking of getting rid of my brand new coil dependent tanks.

    I'm just finding my way along as a non smoker. Only got 300ml or so of 3mg VG Nic for emergency major upset use. Right now I'm at 0/Nic. Aug 6 no cigs. TFA Pina Colada Flavoring is used as 2% start point?

    IMHO - As for "CRAZY DRIVERS" - without a doubt - they are here - worse then Manhattan or any other city I have driven in (Many are so self-absorbed as though no one is on the road but them)
    .

    I concur, I've driven all over the country and have only seen similar craziness in a few places. I have to dodge people merging into my lane at least twice a month and have been rear ended twice in the last 3 years. If someone isn't a defensive driver they may have issues driving in some Florida cities.

    Most coastal places are more cycling friendly than inland but their are exceptions, like Tallahassee and Gainesville which is due to the colleges. With more bicycles on the road their are more accidents but that's just nature of the beast.

    I’d never part with mine. They just vape too good. No muss no fuss. Lazy in my old age. Got plenty of tanks I can wind a coil for if I’m so inclined.

    You mean kinda like male PMS? :rolleyes:
    It's real; I think I might be pregnant.

    FYI: Many will not believe this, however Men do have a monthly cycle and actually do go through "Male Menopause" too . . . As for being pregnant - NO . . . Just Sayin' . . . :rolleyes:
