Random DIY mixing and More

[stols001]

I'm never catching up you crazy flavorers. I can't lie my bottles down either but this is due to my ADHD and inability to be certain if the lid is on "tight enough." My "wedged in my small fridge but standing UPRIGHT is working for me.

I gotta say I know there is debate about room temp vs. fridge my flavors are ALL holding up fine. I don't think it hurts them, it may in fact help them.

OMG guys, this week somehow contained 15 weeks (have to update my "adopted" mommy @FranC, LOL, I am sure she likes it JUST as much as my actual mommy, LOL.)

Seriously it was NOT GOOD. My supervisor came to observe me on Thursday which meant like NO notes time, you just can't if you dictate because like, I did a note and shew was like, "WAS THAT FROM TODAY" in horror and I was like, no that is from 2 days ago and I am pretty sure it's fine, But, then I was done,

I like her to a point, but she is like every supervisor she had to pee a little bit on EVERY encounter and tell me what was wrong but she was mostly fine with them. Mostly.

Oh well God only knows.

The house.... The adjuster is a HORRIBLE person. We finally halted demo as we need a structural engineer to certify the house as uninhabitable. Our State Farm rep called to see how we were doing and they were so horrified they called Corporate.

She called my husband all polite and he let her have it because she was exceptionally rude to me on several occasion, not to mention a complete twit like, in general,. I believe she will behave better now. Probably. We'll see. Hopefully, husband returns in a week or so, we get our rent paid for 5 months and a NEW home. GOD.

So yeah I made it through my 15 weeks without the husband and able to wake up. Yoga going good.

I also... It is DEFINITELY the dang shoes with my hip. I ordered 4 more pairs of the shoe I CAN tolerate and thank God they are not as expensive..

I really should sell the Danscos they are the shoes with the highest resale value, honestly.

I would feel ikky about buying used shoes personally but like... IDK. People do it. I have bought new vapes (Provaris, mainly) that are used.

I just... I need someone to do it for me, like an auctioneer. I am a terrible seller that is for sure.

I would add any vape news but I have none. l am barely having time to get my vapes filled and whatnot. I hate it. It's notes later but if I do NOT get a break this morning (you guys, LOL) I would die,. If some are late, I'm not going to kill myself over it.

Hope you all are well, may the sick be well, may the unhappy be blessed, may the stressed, like, win a lottery ticket." Something.

OH. I told the husband to buy a ticket and he wants ME to check it. Someone won 360 million. I so hope it was not us. I can't handle a divorce right now. LOL.

Well Fran, after vaping this Honduran Raspberry for awhile now, I find the 3% Raspberry level evenly divided between FW and FA is the exact right amount. I'm getting a nice taste of both the tobacco and the fruit. Right where I want it. I need to closely monitor though to see if the raspberry fades with age. I'm not an expert on fruit so I need to pay attention. The stuff I am vaping this morning is 15 days old.

Mine is the same in measurement but I used PUR Raspberry and VTA Juicy Raspberry. 8 days old. I jumped the gun by a bit.

Thanks much for the update. So glad things are going reasonably well now. Note I did say reasonably..........

Tsk tsk.

Can only get better,right?

I can't really comment on the rest of this post, but just this part on the storage of flavors. I have for years now stored small sizes of flavorings at room temperature, I have never noticed a change in the actual flavor. I have noticed a change in the color of the flavorings though. I also buy larger bottles of these flavorings, sometimes just 30 ML, and sometimes 4 oz bottles. I do store the larger sizes in a frig, and those do not change color. With some of them you do see a crystallization going on, and once you warm them up and shake them, they are fine. From what I have read a wine cooler, would be better for the storing of flavorings, but I have not had the cash to get one to try it. Just my

I'd pay 5 cents.

I don’t intend to

LOL @FranC yeah REASONABLY well. If something's not on fire or like flooding ACTIVELY I feel pretty good.

Now If I could "Flood" the adjuster, that might be AWESOME. You know, those tanks you put people in and slowly raise the EXTREMELY COLD water, until they are UNDERWATER and they finally submit and you let them out. Something like that?

I saw it on TV once. I wanna say Fear factor but I'm not sure.

OKAY. NOTES. DANG it.

I'll try not to get there too fast.

Ha! Damn garage door took a dump on us two days before closing.... lovely. The sproket that the chain attaches to just snapped completely off the motor. I have big plans for the turtle setups in the next house and this damn garage door is biting into the turtle budget.

I was dismantling one of the nesting boxes this morning and evidently my ornate diamondbacks were laying eggs early. This will be fun, incubators setup in the hotel room on Monday! Each egg is worth 1.5 to 3k so they are like gold.... This is the earliest she has laid. I did have to sell a few to help financially with the move. I just sold this girl for 2K this week.

On the mixing front I plan on mixing some 555 Gold and FA Soho at high nic levels to help get ME through the move. Pray for me.......

So sorry you had to sell that beautiful girl. Prayers for the rest of the move going smoother

Banana Dark Fire. Testing two 2FTs. Both at 7% Dark Fire (Stixx) + 1% Banana. One has Banana (CAP), the other Banana (HS). Of the two, the Banana (CAP) is better than the Banana (HS). It less candied and the HS tastes like furniture polish. Banana (HS) is out. Bye bye. The banana definitely tempers the smokiness of the Dark Fire as I hoped. However, it seems a little too strong even at 1%. It's hiding the Dark Fire too much. So I will try it at 1/2% on my next try. I have a third 2SFT using 7% Dark Fire + 1% DX Banana Cream (TFA). Not sure I'm even gonna try that. Looking forward to the Dark Fire/Apricot combination.

So I mentioned my neighbor who in 2004 took up vaping. He went to a vape shop, tried three flavors and liked the third one (bottled tobacco swill of some kind). Since then it is all he has ever vaped. Well, I'm getting him into DIY ahead of the Deeming deadline. I mixed him 14 different tobaccos. 11 of them were bottled tobacco swill along with three NETs. He vaped five of them and liked the second one (Burley - FA) and stopped. Said it was plenty good. Tough nut to crack, eh? I don't know if I should feel good that he so quickly found a flavor he likes or slap him.

Looking forward to what you think about the apricot. I have already decided I will have no cheating on the Dark Fire.

On the Honduran Raspberry,I will have plenty left when it gets to 2 weeks. I’m thinking of another raspberry mix changing the raspberry to a couple I may like better.

You’re awful good to your neighbor but you need to get him to mix his own swill
