Random DIY mixing and More

[Koolkiz]

I wish I had time to mix. Hopefully, I can mix 100mL on Friday my day off. It's so busy with work and my second job-the garden. I had to get another covid test Test#5 yesterday. I worked the covid unit. Only 2 people tested positive and 4 under quarantine. Wearing the helmet and n95 I feel like I might survive. This is the shield I have to wear for active covid.

Man that looks unpleasant. This is one of these illnesses you don't want to catch but then if you have you are relieved. I hope everything works out.

Today: More hell, gotta do the kitchen. The husband allowed me to throw out a MEASELY 5 things from the kitchen, and it WAS gonna be six. One of them was a plastic spatula. I was like, "You JUST bought this lovely, new, plastic spatula that is the SAME thing." He was like, "This one is wider for pancakes." I was like, "."

You see what I have to deal with? I'm not even packing stuff UP yet, like just sort of shoving it in boxes to see how much space it will consume. We have like EIGHT cast iron pans (granted they are cool) but like, he would NOT allow me to get rid of a single one of them. We have the gigantor one all the way down to the tiny one. I barely even asked I was like, "You are gonna make me keep all these right?" They are the equivalent of the heaviest Russian nesting dolls ever.

I wish you much luck. Stay safe.

I wish I had a cast iron pan collection like that. I have two that were my grandmother's. She had every size imaginable plus cornstick pans, etc. I was way too dumb back in the day to collect them all up and bring them home with me so I have to make do with the two skillets that I use almost every day. When I get some free time, I will haunt second-hand shops for Griswald and Wagner pans. I sure do wish I could go back in time.

Going to get to that now I think.

Have any of you diy'ers ordered nic lately? I want to grab a liter but unsure if it will oxidize during transport? I know soon-ish I won't be able to order nic and just want to make sure I have enough.

Desert ship w/honeysuckle sounds tasty. What %'s did you use for that one?

A friend ordered some from Heartland Vapes in mid June, and it got here in fine condition. Wherever you order it from...I would order it on a Saturday or a Monday. It would have the best chance of being delivered that M-F then. I wouldn't order it later in the week, because depending on estimated transit days to you...it may sit in a shipping hub's warehouse, or truck, along the way over the week-end.

No, I haven't - but if I were still wanting to boost the stash, I'd go ahead and order it. A few days in transit shouldn't affect it much.

I sure do wish I could go back in time.

Estate sales. That's where we got a lot of ours for unreasonably cheap. Yeah, they are very useful (and healthy) I was not surprised the husband wanted to keep them all. GOD are they ever heavy (I can barely lift the largest one to clean it.)

I want to buy nic but I don't have time and the idea of filling up the freezer with more nic, well IDK it's overwhelming. My gallon jugs arrived. The husband has emptied the freezer of everything but like, snus/nic. Maybe I will move them IDK. Have to see what space is in there.

I will be buying a gallon of nic once I am no longer visiting the storage shed twice a week to drain ice and see if more ice is needed. Oy. At least it will be comparatively cooling down or whatever. I wonder if they have some storage sheds with like, electrical outlets, that would be ideal.

LOL it reminds me of that show where they bid on abandoned storage sheds without like, knowing what is in them. That show is oddly hypnotic. I wonder what they would think of MY shed.

I got four of Brett's NETs yesterday and mixed up samplers right away. I am so interested to try them.

 

[Koolkiz]

Thanks all for the recommendations on nic. I will order my next Sat off which is 1.5 weeks away
Which vendors are the fastest for shipping. I tried River supply and they were super slow even though it didn't matter during winter time.

 

[stols001]

I think it does depend where you live to a certain extent. I got things from River Supply really fast because we were one state over, or whatever. You could check addresses. I'm not sure whether any of them really "guarantee" a speed of shipping but I think most of them should be okay.

Personally I would just go with Heartlands because it is usually cheaper. IDK. That's what I do now but I actually think their cheap nic is Just Fine With Me.

Adios Amigos Time For Hell. I gotta wash my henna hair now. I will be interested to see if it bleeds. I left it in O/N for 12 hours and it is AWESOME. I really hope it doesn't bleed. This will put me on time for HELL because the husband is such a PITA with the kitchen.

He is like, trying to move everything around because he "does not want anyone to come into our house and see what OTHER stuff we have." Oy. Like they are our NEIGHTBORS as if they could not have robbed us at any time but dude, like, WTH, seriously. Anyway, I'm gonna finish the living room before I attack anything else. I DO need to like uh, go to Walmart in a bit but it should be our LAST Douglas Walmart and I am glad because the Douglas Walmart ain't cheap. However: It must be done, if not today then tomorrow. IDK.

Anna

Okay. Later. Oy.

Good Morning all,

I posted my latest review

Nice review!

My wife buys tons of soaps, hand sanitizer, etc., and has kept her daughter's family of 9 supplied with all that stuff so now they say they are going to buy us a nice dinner and bring it to us. Nice! I want Outback! Meat and potatoes!

Plans today are to replace my rear brakes, and probably my front brakes too
