    I haven’t mixed since coming home from the hospital. Just slowly getting back to doing housework. Can’t do too much as I get tired. But getting better every day.

    I really want to mix Gallagher’s & 5Star Custard.
    Sounds like a few more days of rest are in order.

    But the good news is I lost 10 lbs! 20lbs to go! It was a blessing in disguise as I really wanted to lose 30 lbs but everyone knows how hard that is. So this helped jump start losing weight.

    I think that Holy PoPo is some kind of donut.

    Holy Po Po is suppose to be a Strawberry Doughnut iirc.

    Sure would be nice if it wasen’t so hard to lose weight. I’m trying to gain and that ain’t easy either

    I just wanted to report in and say I hope you all are well.

    So far, the age of 44 has not been auspicious. I threw out my back last night in the kind of way where if you don't get muscle relaxers to like, deal, you wind up immobilized. The next morning, I had to go see my doc in Tucson to get my ADA paperwork done and I almost died. It's a 2.5 hour drive. I also needed something to turn my mood from an angry hungry shark into a minnow. Like, seriously. Only, I also needed muscle relaxers BAD. He was like "I can give you valium for both things" because he wanted to know what "worked" for me and I said I had no idea but based on like drug message boards I have read, Soma seems to be highly sought after. I think it amplifies your high of opiates or something. So I was like "OKAY Valium it IS." LOL. It seems to be sort of working only it's a bit disinhibiting.

    I found this out when I called my boss. Good thing she knows I am nuts with stress and rather "frustrated" were her words only I was like, "NO FRIGHTENED."

    Anyway I went off a bit about how two of the supervisors said they would have been fired long ago (including her) then putting me in harm and I was like NO OTHER BUILDING (she really wanted this I found out later why.) She was like, "I can tell evil dude like, to not be scheduled with you."

    Because I guess both creepy head docs are out of town and can't review my complaint. Only I KNOW they read it. Because head doc (who I have loathed since day one) suggested me and evil doc try to co exist. And we should "offer up apologies, however small, for our parts in this... WHHUUUT?" thankfully I can deal with that LATER and evil doc promptly apologized about not letting me in HIS rooms and was really sorry and wanted me to try. Holy ghost.

    So like, I told my doc since I was on a modified schedule for two weeks like, maybe we could eat in the conference room where I don't worry about him killing me, but like perhaps since my modified schedule was like, gonna be hard enough, adding in "in room IBH" with him was bad.

    I swear to GOD I am going to start recording EVERYTHING. it's a 1 part consent state, this state.

    I DON'T care there may come a time I will need it. I may even tell him that.

    I want head doc to eat evil doc and then I want to turn them into human sushi. Of course, I lack that capacity I can barely hobble off the couch.

    Husband is all pissy about chores, he thinks his neck like, beats my back. I doubt it though, because a fresh injury is always the suck.

    Holy po po is supposed to be a strawberry donut. I didn’t really like it that much.

    Fran, I’ve got a few pounds I can contribute to your weight gain. 48 is not being nice to me. I’ve gained weight over the past year and don’t have the stamina or motivation to exercise like I used to. I’ve got to figure out how to turn it around.

    I want to mix but am in Virginia for a month and all of my mixing stuff is in Washington state. I got inspired by a new idea tonight. There were a couple of bottles of Canada Dry Gingerale with Lemonade in the fridge and it is actually quite tasty. I want to try something like that in a vape. My Fizzy Pink Lemonade is probably a good start. Can't decide whether to add TFA Gingerale, or FW Soda Base and some VTA Ginger. Maybe I will try both. I have a few recipes that have "come" to me while I have been here so will be very busy making up testers when I get back to Washington in July.

    I had an idea of a chocolate mocha granola bar but it didn’t turn out that good. I should have tried a remix but never did. I’m going to get a couple intake rtas cleaned so I can try a couple new mixes of stuff I’ve had steeping this week.

    I got through another case of flavors on my master list. I just can’t sit at the computer for that long to do it in one shot. We just bought my youngest a MacBook Pro for college and I’m rather jealous. It’s easy to spend the money on the kids but would have a hard time justifying that much for one for myself.

    Having my little DIY work station has been awesome! No need for me to get all the needed items from the closet then putting them all back

    It doesn’t sound like much but for a person who has chronic illness and pain it’s been incredibly helpful. Not sure why hadn’t thought of doing this over a year ago.

    Each day this week I’ve made 3-4 10 ml testers. It’s so pleasant to just sit down and have everything right at my finger tips.

    Tomorrow I’ll be making a nic base since I’m pretty much done with the bottles running on empty.

    And I meant to do some sft’s so I’ll get a few of those started tomorrow as well.

    I hope everyone has a nice weekend!!
