We got tornado warnings for 2 storm bands coming through this evening. The first one went just north of us, second one is due shortly.

This morning I found some 100mg nic, a 120ml bottle about 1/4 full. It was sitting on a high shelf above my mini freezer mixed in with a bunch of clean 120ml bottles. I keep my nic in 1/2L bottles and break one down into 120ml bottles when I need to. I was probably mixing base and forgot to put it back in the freezer.

It was an amber bottle. I poured it into a clear bottle and the nic was quite dark brown. It could have been up on the shelf for months or years, the label said 2014 but that's just when I bought it. Thought about trying it out to see how it vaped. But that would have been a lot of work, and I've got plenty of nic. Mixed it with water in a big mason jar and dumped it in the woods out back. Probably gave some ants a headache.

    Hopefully the second storm won’t hit you either.

    Good evening. A workout is on my schedule tonight. I ordered some 4x6 bags to store tank parts in so I can get rid of boxes as I organize.
    Definitely a good idea. The only boxes I still have are Provari boxes. I read once that people buying used Provaris like to have the boxes, that was a while back though and I don't think used Provaris are too popular nowadays.

    Talking of weather, our local weather page has just started including a summary forecast for the next 30 days. Not sure how much use it will be. They can't even tell me whether the tornado storm due in 30 minutes will hit my neighborhood.
    No kidding, stay safe.

    I never thought I’d get rid of boxes. I’m a hoarder at heart but it’s just gotten out of hand. No reason really to keep the boxes since most of my tanks are in organizers. I don’t really plan on selling any in the organizers but should keep the spare o rings and stuff. I’m not sure yet about getting rid of boxes for mods and mod kits yet. I’ll decide later. I will definitely keep the boxes for my dna mods and other favorites.

    How many more boxes to go through?

    Three if I don’t do the ones in the corner. Eight if I go through them all. I’m already getting burned out. I will at least go through the three then might take a break.

    Morning, mixers.

    We did make it to 57 yesterday, and on track for the mid - upper 60s for a while. Actually happy to see that guess, as on Monday I'll start my annual trek to the Phoenix area. Long drive, and I prefer to NOT have snow over the Siskiyous!!

    Well, that the pits. Makes for a slow day when not busy.
    Yes it does. I hate it. I’m happier when I have a 1-2 week backlog. Hopefully it’s starts picking up soon or it’s going to be a low commission next month.
