    It's only mid June so it's only going to get worse. We are in the low 90s which is typical for us in June. I'm hoping that we don't have a lot of 110+ this summer. It's too much to ask for no triple digit temps
    You live in a hot place so you can expect hot.

    Part of the problem is that we were having a really mild summer so far with daytime temperatures in the 70’s then all of a sudden it’s 90+ every day.
    Yup, same here. In our 10 day forcast there are just 80's after the 90's are gone.

    I grew up in the north of England. Never got too hot. Maybe 2 or 3 days each summer it would get up above 80. I lived on the coast. Down on the beach you could rent deck chairs and windscreens. They consisted of 4 poles connected with fabric. You stuck the poles in the sand and sat on the downwind side. You would often see families sitting behind the screen with their coats on. In the rain.

    It's a lot hotter now for obvious reasons.

    When I moved over to the US I never had a problem with the winters, but the summers hit me hard. Still do.

    I just did a grocery shipping trip. Picked up 8 giant leeks, they are kind of rare this time of year. This evening I'll be making a pot of leek soup. Should be able to put at least 12 portions in the freezer. Wife won't eat it so they are all for me.

    Last night I took a bottle of nic out of the freezer. I'll be making a liter of base this evening, five 200ml bottles. I've been mixing regulars the last few days and finished up the base. I generally keep them out for a day for regular shaking then put four bottles in the freezer.

    I have 4 1/2 liters of 100 nic left. I've been steadily cutting down on the amount I vape over the years, not intentionally, it just happened. My run-out date has receded into the distance. Well into my 100's now. Haven't cut down on the nic strength though. Been at 6mg/ml for many years and don't plan on reducing it. I did try a few times. Went to 4 once and 5 a couple of times. Even 5 didn't work for me.

    I've been at 6mg for a long time myself.

    I'm not walking today because I have traveler's ......... I started having symptoms on Saturday the day after I returned. Immodium helps, but last night and this morning I had some nausea. I have some Phenergan, which helps, but makes me sleepy. By the time I woke up, it was too hot to walk.

    You won't miss one day.
