Random DIY mixing and More

[englishmick]

Indeed !

You have no idea how much effort it took to clear out my chest of drawers last weekend.
This weekend will be shoes.
Then working up to the rest of the closet.
Having worked in a bank for so may years before...I have over 50 suits. Not a lie - I am a great sale shopper.
Then there are dresses, skirts and blouses.
I've put on too much weight and don't have to dress like that at work anymore so it's been 10 years since I have worn any of it.
Really sad, but it just needs to go. I'll never be a size 4 again.

My wife worked in accounting and she has the same problem. A closet full of fancy clothes that don't fit any more. And which she wouldn't ever wear even if they did fit. And shoes.

I quit office work 20 years ago, kept one suit plus a shirt and tie for funerals and donated everything else.

Oh well, I'll keep an eye on it. Unfortunately it's an almost full 250' roll. Even with a hair dryer not much air would get to the wire on the inside of the roll. If it was a 10' I would have thrown it out or rewound it. I got it picked up and dried off in a few seconds so the water probably stayed on the outside.

Probably ok, then. Yes, likely only the outside got wet. And, we can still get kanthal

I just mixed up another five testers, two "real" mixes while the rest are more of my random flavor combos.

The "real" ones are a Raspberry Shortbread Custard and a Cinnamon Cereal Milk.

The custard mix is just Ole Frederiksen's Grants Vanilla Custard at lower % with CAP Shortbread and TFA Raspberry, Sweet.

The Cereal Milk is a monster for me with eight flavors, mostly from my ideas for building the milky part.

This puts me up to 23 testers steeping now, I'm gonna be a busy bee sampling nectars pretty soon!

My daughter and her 2 cats just left. I already miss them, especially the daughter.

That's funny because I was just thinking that I'm ready for my daughter and her dog to move into her apartment. Saturday can't come quick enough.

 

[DavidOck]

She get her car back yet?

My daughter is moving into a new place today, a house she's going to be sharing with 4 other people, and the 2 cats.

No, it's been almost a month in the body shop but not their fault. They have been waiting on parts. My wife is going to call today to check on it and we are hoping she and our daughter can go pick it up tomorrow if it's finished.

I hope they all get along ok.

Kiss it to God and keep using it.

I'm not sure my son will ever move out. Why would he? He gets all the food he wants and I do most of the chores. Although he does help. I haven't used my dishwasher in about a year...I wash and rinse and he dries and puts them away every night.

His boss just asked him if he could extend his internship through next semester! It's not final but I'm fairly certain they will make it happen. Hopefully this turns into a full time job...we'll see. They really like him and he fits in nicely. If he gets a full time, I suggested he go for his Masters degree since his job will pay 2/3 of it.

Maybe if he ever finds a girlfriend..........maybe then I can be free.

I hope your 2 real ones turn out good.

Keep your fingers crossed.

Start taking less care of him, @*RJ*. Maybe that'll nudge him out the door.

Thank you, Fran!
Also glad to hear that you're feeling a bit better than yesterday and hoping that trend continues!

I also found another CAP Shortbread solo fan browsing ELR last night,

Good evening. Another hot one here. Work is super busy which is great. I don’t plan on doing much of anything tonight. I do need to build a couple tanks for a review.

I like it at 3%. It doesn’t need sweetener.

I finally received my diy flavor shack order. The two flavors came in a rigid bottle with a twist cap and no dropper. I will need to transfer these to a squeeze dropper bottle. Weird. I’ve never seen flavors come like this.

I just ordered a non vape shiny, a $1000 phone, but I only paid $500 for it. Of course, I could've just spent less than $100 and got my old phone fixed, but what's the fun in that? I bought a Samsung Galaxy Z3 flip. It may take me a bit to get used to a phone that folds in half.

I’m sure it’ll happen when it’s time. He needs a job after graduation first. I had him too late in life (34) and I’m just old. He’s a good kid though.

I upgraded last year to a Galaxy 22 from a 9! What a change! I haven't tried a flip phone, that would be strange at first.
