    I typically wake up at 3:15 am, but leave for work at 4:30 am. I could sleep in a bit more, but I don't like to feel rushed in the morning. Sets off the wrong tone for the day.
    I hear you there. I hate being rushed first thing in the morning.

    So what do you think of the proposed tax on nicotine that will add over $2000 a liter?? I think that’s just insane.If I wasen’t so sure I have enough I’d be buying now whether I could afford it of not.

    I'm thinking of buying just a little more if there is a good sale, even though I don't think I need it. I think the days of being able to order nic base are coming to a close. :(

    Yes,and that really bites for any new DIYer. I’m quite sure I have enough. If I wasn’t, I’d be buying too.

    Yeah, all the newbies to DIY, and all the current smokers. Very sad. We are the fortunate ones.

    Well, I’ve been talking about it long enough and I finally dug out my envelopes and picked 5 recipes to fine tune. 4 have been mixed before but need major fixes, 1 is new.

    I might actually mix some today. I need to get on it! But I also have some quince I need to deal with, and a ton of yard work. I need a rainy day!

    Hope you get your rainy day soon,,,, LOL. My plan is to mix first part of next week. It will be my first real mixing session since I’ve been here.

    It's absolutely insane! I'd be taxed $18,000 for my 9 liters. $18,000 would be impossible to justify to my wife, and me for that matter. Glad I stockpiled and have my lifetime supply! One benefit I could see, is for vape shop owners. Since DIY will become financially impossible, people will be forced to get premade juices at a store or online.

    This is true, IF there are any vape shops after May 2020. Instead of just rearranging the deck chairs, they're piling them up and setting them on fire.

    Even if Trump backs down on the federal ban, what will be left by that time?

    That tax makes me sick. I’ve got a little over 7 liters which should last me forever. I wonder if I should start mixing my sft without nic so I don’t waste it since I rarely finish a sft.

    That is a good idea. I may start doing that again.

    Flavors taste flat to me without nic.Also I only mix 5ml sft’s. I’m also about done buying flavors since there seems to be nothing new.

    I’m kinda excited to look forward to a mixing session. Haven’t done much of any mixes since I did all those 15ml mixes to take here with me.I was so glad I did all those mixes. It was a real life saver at the time and I got a few winners out of it. I did have to do a couple remixes here and it was rather a pain cause nothing was together. Now all my cases are in one place where I can just pull them all out before mixing. I think it will work good for me.......fingers crossed.

    I’m going to go random here for a minute. Any of you folks into essential oils? I started with them but when hubs died I just lost interest. Before that actually, cause he was very sick for some time.

    I bought a new diffuser awhile back that I just took out of the box a couple days ago. I had given my daughter what oils I had but now that I’m here I can still use them.....LOL. I did buy a small box of oils, 6 I think which I might get today.

    So to get back to my original question.If there are any oil users here what are your favs?
