Water is all good as far as I can tell. I mean, how do you tell? I was drinking poison coffee for months.

Based on these plumbers and their motivation and cheapness skills, it's probably still AWFUL I should buy a water test kit or something.

But, everything is coming out of the faucets evenly, my son (after drainoing my bathtub once more) pointed out it was a screw out plug and if I needed to shower or purge, I could just remove it. HE will be finding a job in Sierra Vista, man, and I will pay him whatever he NEEDS to like live on his own, and it's only like an extra 500 or so (he wants to work.) Oh, and air conditioning in his truck.

I want this, quite badly. He also raided the perimeter of the OUTSIDE of the house, and said, "Mom, you gotta try and kill them BEFORE they get in, nobody likes that.

He did it with a shirt (he is washing all his laundry) and a pair of boxer underwear barefoot. NO TWITCHING.

He also, when I informed him that like, there was no filter in the drying, FOUND the filter, showed it to me (he was laughing his .... off) and was like, "Now, mom you have to use it you don't want your house to catch fire.

He does all this stuff totally CHILL, man. And he was raised by 2.5 (I count my ex as 0.5) NUTJOBS!!!!!!!!!!!!

He is the best thing I have ever created, and like I've made a LOT of stuff. Although, to be fair he was kind of a BORN autodidact, I mean, I had to learn that skill. But he is.... I NEED him here, or at least within reach on weekends.

I told him we could go BACK to Sierra Vista only he is "waiting for his clothes to dry." He was like, "Well it could take a while because I don't know how my clothes are going to react to this dryer so I put it on low."

I was like HOLY CRUD who on earth is this naturally SENSIBLE???????

I have never done that with a dryer. Ever. In my life.

    Well, for one thing, I'm sure some of them are not going to work for me and they'll get dumped. The other thing is they are all 15ml mixes so not as much volume as mixing in bigger bottles.

    So you are saying he is moving to Sierra Vista? I think that would be the best thing in the world for YOU:)

    He might, IDK. I think his main thing is could he find work in the field he likes, but he does like the town quite a bit.

    He may do it I'm not sure. He is working for a chain THERE and there is the same chain here, but the problem is it's not very exciting as far as what he likes to do (repair phones, computers, etc.) He also wants some room for advancement I think. He seems fairly fond of his "Field" but not so much his actual, current job (he just switched) but the store (not chain) may be closing down.

    I'd love to see him living on his own, and I would totally be willing to help out along the way. He's living in my mom's basement at the moment and he isn't paying much rent.

    Unfortunately, he just had to do a bunch of work on his truck and get his wisdom teeth out. So, that's annoying (him) he's actually pretty frugal and whatnot. He did like Sierra Vista kind of a lot, and it is a town I could see suiting him.

    He thinks Douglas is a tiny dump with most of the "good stuff" in Mexico, which like, I do not disagree at ALL (I should point out to him Sierra Vista gets snow) only I'm an old lady who doesn't mind living in a DUMP. Heh.

    When I mixed last, I haphazardly threw together this recipe on the fly, aiming for a Rhubarb-Strawberry cheesecake, heavy on the rhubarb:

    1% WF Sweet and Sour Rhubarb
    3% VTA Rhubarb Compote
    1% INW Shisha Strawberry
    1% TFA Strawberry Ripe
    1% FA Juicy Strawberry
    Top off with Fran's Cheesecake #2.

    I vaped it for the first time the other day, and it mostly tastes of nothing. I can faintly discern what is supposed to be rhubarb (though it tastes nothing like rhubarb to me) and perceive the strawberry not at all.

    Thoughts, concerns, criticisms?

    Is it tart or no?

    That is strange. I would think that one or the other would have come forward to taste.

    If I mixed as many as you have lately then I think they'd go bad before I was able to use them all.

    Uh, not going to vape them in the next year? Other than the various flavors that do fade, should be fine.

    That's 4% rhubarb. It should be wicked tart.
    Over flavored. Try putting a small amt in a smaller bottle and add pg vg and nic. Should do the trick.
    @Zazie
    Would also like to say that not all strawberries mix well together. Some do cancel each other out. Found that out while trying to combine some myself a while back.

    I think I’m about done with nonna’s cake. I only made 5ml. I like black licorice but can’t get past the anise taste I keep getting from it. I’m also probably not going to mix the strubarb custard again. At least not as written anyway. I am looking forward to trying the licorice torpedo flavor that I ordered. Any suggestions on mixing percentage?

    I never had any desire to get the Nonna's Cake. Could be a good thing cause I don't like black licorice,

    I also did a new mix of blueberry cookie. This time I used the FW blueberry and fa bilberry instead of the two tfa flavors. I left out the Hs cream also because I’m not sure I need it.
    My go to is 4% Blueberry (Extra) TFA mixed with 2% FW Blueberry Cotton Candy.
    *it actually doesn't taste like candy.
