They (NR) had to evacuate during the fires. I’m guessing they couldn’t get things back on track in time.
I think that's quite strange because my account is fine and I hardly ever buy from them anymore.Follow-up for my ECX issue (stuck in the re-activate loop):
I received a reply to my online plea for help. Evidently, when ECX did their latest system upgrades, they used the opportunity to "purge" inactive (non-buying) accounts. I was informed I will have to create a new one. That means, the nearly $100 of product that was on my wish list, is now gone. Too bad for ECX. This 30% off sale was exactly what I was waiting for to pull the trigger. Now, I have neither the time, nor the inclination, to try to rebuild it.
I appreciate that they gave me a definitive reply; and didn't just try to ignore my problem away. At least I know.
View attachment 781457 @FranC , saw this and thought of you.
Happy pre-thanksgiving everyone! I am thankful for each of you, and wish you and yours a food filled, relaxing, happiness abundant day tomorrow. No mixing here, except in the kitchen.
That sounds good, even to me.
I have some of the ingredients and bet that some of the others could be subbed. Thanks for sharing.
To be fair to ECX, it has probably been close to 3 years, since my last order. And, if my memory isn't totally whacked (which is quite possible), I think I may have even ordered in "guest" status... prior to creating an account. I only created an account later; when I learned I could save on-site wish lists.
So, it is certainly within the realm of reason, that they could have no official sales history for me.
That's a possibility for sure. It was just a few months ago I made a small order.To be fair to ECX, it has probably been close to 3 years, since my last order.

Any mixing plans for turkey day? I don't really have any mixing plans but I hope to try a new juice today. I went through all my messy notes the other day and have 3-4 possible recipes to mix along with the Avocado cookie I haven't mixed yet. I may still mix that cookie after I get the bird in the oven.
Happy thanksgiving y’all!!!
TY for reminding me, Fran. I have a few bottles to move from steep to vape boxes. Hopefully one is a new, not remix. Now I’m wishing I had come up with a cranberry, basil, lemonade.
Happy Turkey Day all. No mixing today but tomorrow I make my Dole Whip and will come up with a couple recipes to use Chocolate Mousse, and probably a handful of throw togethers. I'm still in the flavor exploring stage. Have some INW biscuit I want to work into a cookie or two...
Happy Thanksgiving. I won’t be mixing anything today probably but have to get everything ready for my outlaws to come over. Besides thanksgiving, it’s also my BiL’s birthday.
Nope, no mixing today. We'll head out shortly to spend the day with kids and grand kids.
Happy thanksgiving everyone. Seems to me that overall, Nic River has been like, doing less sales, more frequently in general. I am happy I got a bunch of my nic from them and a few proprietary flavors, but they so need to Sale Up in general.
If I buy anything exciting it will be a Minikin RAWWWWW but I'm not all supriomo excited about it exactly. I don't want to buy something where like, I order it and don't receive it before I die or whatever, that just seems like such a waste. LOL. Although, (LONG MEDICAL RANT FOLLOWS, beware.)

BEWARE, medical rant follows:
I did go see the adult side of my clinic... .It sort of... Well, I'm going to be finding somewhere else probably. They didn't do a good job at all. Anything that ends with me TRYING to stay polite but having to say, "Look. The right answer for ME about the blood draw you just did and the doctor said would be read TONIGHT only she was wrong, and she left, and the lab closed... I need the answer that is TRUE, not the answer that you think will appease me. If you have made a bunch of mistakes, I can understand that, but I really need the answer that is VALID, not what you think will make me leave, okay? If it's Friday, I need to vigilant until FRIDAY and to not expect anything TONIGHT so I know to be careful. Do not tell me you do not know. You DO know. I am WATCHING you refrigerate my blood in a vial next to a whole bunch of emptiness. Tell the truth, because I can see for myself they have been and gone."
This was after them telling me "CBC needed" listed in my patient plan was "like an order you can go to any hospital."
I just replied, "No, I'm sorry, I'm a social worker. I know that I actually can't. I really do know that, I cannot take some random paper that gives me discharge instructions and get a lab ANYWHERE at all." Like 20 times. Then they offered to print me off some actual lab order which I was like, "Okay." Only some pseudo helpful person still there said she could draw my blood and she did... Only to tell me it would sit in the fridge until Friday afternoon when I was like, "So the doc said that would be read tonight and that is correct?"
Had I not been at "work" sorta I would have grabbed that vial, and been like "I'm gonna keep it on ice and find a way to like, get it tested. Because I can't SPARE anymore blood, I am bleeding and that was the whole point of this DRAW to see if I'm dying yet."
My doctor was like, 12. She wasn't very smart . She told me I was going to have to take hormonal birth control AS she was busy doing swabs and telling me it could be an infection and she was referring me to OBGYN. I was like, "Why would you say that to me, you don't even know what it is, and I am NEVER going to do that, did you even read my medication or dx list? Because I cannot take hormones for a TON of reasons, including the fact that they make me suicidal and INCLUDING the fact that you have not diagnosed me yet." I think she thought she was like, making fun or deep conversation or something. I kinda wanted to smack her.
Oh well, they are now my PCP of record and like, unless I want to spend a billion dollars on like, Medicare plus the hospital and ALL that money, this is the only way I can fix this. I just freaking drove home and ate an extremely iron rich dinner. I'm still alive this morning. Sigh.
I am getting an OBGYN referral "in 14 days" and whatnot. What that team doesn't know is that I will be attacking the referral "team" on like, Monday with the ferocity of a bear in a foot trap, because like, I'M SORRY I am NOT waiting 2 weeks for a freaking referral it's unnecessary and granted my like, docs in Tucson were good, but they did referrals while you waited. SIgh. Oh well, such is life. It makes me glad to be on the pedes side because like, they docs there are mostly smart. I am sure some of the adult ones are, too, but like, mine was not one of them. I am going to make discovery of the smart ones and stick to THEM. I am also kind of... Well, I'm not going to complain because I am an employee. If I were not an employee I would have written them the most scathing "How did we do" card they have gotten yet. I might have needed 20 cards to do it with, but I know how to number stuff. LOL.
I think it might be all the soy in the Ensure shakes, if it is hormonal. I think the soy thing is mostly a myth, but my family is sensitive to soy. My kiddo complained about them making him feel ill, before he even looked to see if there is soy. I hope it's that, and that I will have no further need of behavioral or medical interventions, but I should know by 4 days I'm guessing. I just get them because I need more calories fast, and it's a PITA to be cooking up more food and I gag over actual "food" in the a.m. and it's easier to choke one of them down.
So keeping my fingers crossed. LOL.

I tried to snag an aegis mini this morning from an email I got from myvpro. I had it in my cart and checked out. When I hit submit, it said there wasn’t enough inventory. Sure seems like another Black Friday scam.
