So what you random folks up to? Restaurants are closed here except for takeout so we’ve decided to help support one of them by ordering takeout tomorrow.

In vaping news I just put the last of my Rhuberry Black Tea in my tank. It will be up for remix when I’m ready,
After work, I took a long nap. Then I fed my son. Now I’m waiting on my clean pjs to dry and I’m going to bathe. Then I don’t know. Probably read a book or watch tv. Tomorrow is Friday already. :thumbs: I finally broke down and turned my AC on...feels so much better in here.

Got my 4oz bottle of holy grail ry4 from diyflavorshack today, and they threw in a freebie of Sweetness Sweetener in too, not sure I will use it, but like they throw in freebies though, and works for them, as only ordered the ry4 due to them giving me as a freebie previously, has any one used that sweetener?

I know not you @FranC , know you don't like sweet ;)
I’m not big on sweet either. It’s the only one I have. Doesn’t taste artificial to me, but I use between 1-3 drops per 30ml. Usually 1, and only in a few recipes that just won’t work without it.

    Thank you for your input, think I will try a small tester with their ry4, as they included it with that.

    Several seasoned mixers/reviewers suggested 1 drop per 10ml. That doesn’t make it nearly as sweet as commercial juice. I mainly use it to enhance for myself, not real big on !*SWEET*!, more of just a (hint). A relative I mix for occasionally likes it as suggested.

    I think I’m the only “fig yay!” person here. I like either INW mixed mint or INW mint, depending on what I’m after. My fig is FLV, btw

    you're a crown of gems. thanks.

    so that's a preference to INW mints over say FA?

    Good morning mixers. The traffic driving to work was the least amount of people I've seen on the road in a long time. Morning rush hour was more like a Sunday drive. I have no doubt that I will stay working unless there is a state or federal shut down enforced. My boss is pretty hard core when it comes to being at work.

    Maybe your boss can lay off the lazy workers now.

    Well, as of yesterday, we are one person lighter. One of the accounting ladies that has been making a lot of mistakes and not getting her work done quit. She was getting mean with the other accounting lady and the boss came out and told her to cool it. She didn't like his tone or something and quit about 15 minutes later. It's good that she's gone. Her mistakes were costing us a lot of money.

    I wish my place of business would do a clean out of unproductive workers. Hard to do when you are a state institution. Too many :rules:. I am up to $19K saved for my company. Much more savings to come. I know for a fact, and they as much as said so, most of my coworkers are not working from home because they have nothing to do. If I thought about it too much I would be angry, but I choose to just focus on me and my job. Just wish I could get paid a little more for what I do for them. Again, you'd have someone sue if they paid me more. I am so ready to retire. But I'm going to keep chugging on for my future and my kid's future and my future grandkid's future.

    I need to mix today after work. What shall I mix....hmmmm. I need something creamy.

    I work for a very small company but there are still a couple people that we could get rid of and barely notice that they are gone. I have been telling the office manager that if business slows down that we could send some people home. So far, my end of it has no sign of slowing down yet. People always need equipment repaired and there's no better time to get things fixed that you've been putting off than when it's slow.

    Okay got time for a quick update. I saw every kid in my new clinic this week but ONE. I am doing our part for us not to get furloughed and like, I don't think we will be seriously.

    Gonna mention the part of my day that was kinda satisfying. I heard the weekly Q&A from our head program and he was scary and annoying. Just because the CDC hemlock has been drunk, .I lost my cellphone stipend yesterday (we all did) which isn't huge until you are like, well that is like a 1500 dollar a year pay cut. They are losing money hand over first, but now telemedicine is a thing, I think they'll be fine. We all will.

    So yeah, IDK if anyone remembers me ranting about a doc who called me over for a crisis "consult" and like had decided ahead of time, no crisis team? The kid had 2 past suicide attempts one recent?

    So we had our first telemedicine attempt and we woke her up out of her second (more determined but still a teenage goof thank God) although she was unconscious for 12 hours, and etc. So, we did All The Things, got her to ER and Crisis Consult. I do not believe I have seen that doc turn pale like that. She said the magic words, "I guess you were right, we should have called a crisis team. I am sorry."

    I was very gracious I was like, "Dr. P, she' s ready to go to a psych hospital now, so maybe she will have a better outcome. As far as suicidality teen kiddos who want to die are a specialty of mine, and I just... know. It's an experience thing, and you had to have yours. I will say what I say to any suicidal action to ANYONE. Do not beat yourself up for the past or for things undone. If everyone is still standing, and they are, there is now room for progress and improvement."

    I am proud of me because I could have been mean but what would be the dang point? Some docs need to have this with me, then they start to listen.

    Everything else well it's been fine but my healthcare job gonna be stressful for a while. I also have a kidney infection I think! Yay! But I was able to get me into my adult clinic at 6:30 last night, and well, I hope the drive to Tucson goes alright. I am tired, but on abx. Kidneys feel a bit better. Gotta go get ready soon and Oy I am bringing a full day supply of extra meds in case something happens.

    I hate that. But I have been doing it. You just never know THESE times holy goodness.

    CA is starting the nonsense, the governor has ordered a stay home thing. I think.

    I will amend the slogan slightly Thanks Obama and California.

    Sounds like things continue to go pretty well at the new location for you. Hoping so anyway and glad you're taking enough meds for your trip to Tucsun.
