    Somewhere between here and there
    You folks talking about tool cases reminded me that I need to grab a container for my flavors. With more flavors on the way, it is time to retire the shoebox.

    In my opinion, the polish or thread cases are hard to beat.

    I might grab one of those down the road. But right now I have two from Harbor Freight that I have already picked out. They should more than fit my flavors and will be easy to stash away out of sight.

    Do you have a link for those?

    I’m trying my Raspberry Buttermilk Yogurt. I have done many fruit/yogurt mixes that I like. This is my first with buttermilk and it does bring something different to the mix. I do like it but not giving up my simple yogurt mixes.

    @Zazie

    Raspberry Buttermilk Yogurt
    WF Frozen Yogurt 2%
    WF Buttermilk 1.75%
    INW Raspberry 1.5%

    I like my display shelving units, but starting to rethink them
    but it's hard to swallow the price of how many cases I'd need to get the same amount of storage that I get from the displays
    roughly $50 and I can store 100 - 140 15ml bottles in the plastic display and over 200 15ml bottles in the wire display...so for about $50 I can store about 350 bottles....

    Hubs had some of the ones in your first link in his garage for small parts. I didn’t see any use for myself so I gave them to my daughter. I like the second case you linked but it doesn’t hold enough bottles.
    I might end up with multiples of them

    I have a few of the second ones you linked, Red. Too short for any 30 ml bottles in the middle section, where the handle "well" is. So those cases have been consigned to the shop, for small parts.

    ARRGH!!! This has been the most miserable. worthless Saturday it really has. My husband has been driving me batty. I have been stressed. So I was looking online at teacher certification classes and you KNOW, a lot of them are online, long term and inexpensive. I was like, "Meh cool, perhaps like I could do one over a year or something and eventually teach a class or an online one or something. That might be fun." Of course it turned into a screaming fit about like how I was gonna quit my job. I'm NOT quitting my job that kind of career change takes TONS of time I'd probably be near retirement age anyway. I just wanted SOMETHING I could do that felt like a positive plan for the future but no. PTSD meltdown from the husband,

    I am also getting really DAMN tired of him not allowing me to vent about work. I am a venter. It is healthy. It was NOT healthy for what he did which was to say nothing and hide stuff like sleeping 3 hours a night.

    Anyway now I am to blame for HIS life despite my taking EVERY step I can to secure my employment. I give up. I also grow very tired of the :"divorce me and free me you are evil" PTSD moment. Jesus. That must be who he THINKS he is. YEAH I am going to take the time to go like,, divorce that sucker and pay a lawyer if he wants to leave, he can.

    I am not feeling peaceful I feel rather posy. Maybe yoga WILL help, but I am taking another half hour. It's the worst. It's the worst.

    I get he can't be helpful but WHY can he not be helpful even slightly it drives me batty. It does. I mean HE KNOWS how it is.

    Okay well it's good that I am a fighter although I do know when to back off and regroup my troops. Sigh.

    I hate it. I do. I just don't want to be at home or at WORK either. Psychos surround me wherever I go. My happiest part of the day is 4 am when I wake up, drink coffee and do yoga, and then it just.....

    Bleugh. Maybe I should do cliff face yoga and just see how good I am ... I am good faller but not of a cliff face, actually.

    I am kind of depressed I think, but it's a situational thing. It's kind of WORSE in some ways ,there is no pill I can take to fix it.

    I can fix it. I guess. Nicely or unpleasantly but I am SO DONE with getting trod on. I truly am.

    It kind of looks like I am doomed to SW and healthcare right now, but it HAS to get better, right? I mean, surely? It can't get worse.

    I believe my husband should be able to contribute SOME income I mean, sheesh. His car is SITTING there all F'd up and like, it's somehow MY fault he paid some mechanics 2.5 k to replace the drive train and it is now undrivable like AT ALL. t told him "TAKE IT BACK" 50 times but NO. And heaven forbid like he is wrong. He is all moaning about a truck I was like, "I thought we agreed to wait on the house closing?"

    He really needs tor be garroted sometimes. I wish there was a way to do it impermanently because like, I'd feel bad but right now I feel a good garroting would be GOOD for my blood pressure.

    I hate complaining about my husband I DO love him but sometimes he can SUCK SO HARD ARGH.

    Afternoon all,

    I finally got up, again, and am watching with interest @RJ trying to find tools for her son. I have 2 roll around drawer cabinets, one my wife had when we met that I filled with tools and another blue one for the garage when the main tools were in my shop. Any lifetime guaranteed stuff should work but that last Husky set is hard to beat for $99. Most of my tools are Craftsman but they only give you refurbished crap when they break like ratchets. Not good but maybe they all do that.

    I have plenty of 10ml and 15 ml bottles so I should be able to make good use of the middle section.

    Yeah I’ve always wanted one of those rolling red craftsman tool chests. My son doesn’t really work on cars (ok he doesn’t really work on anything except guns) so I’m looking for more of a home set with tools for cars if needed. But my Dad gave me a bunch of tools recently, and I know he would give my son anything he needed as he has a huge shop full of tools. But I think he would like it as a gift. I will probably use it more than him as my tools are hodgepodge and cheap. :rolleyes: I’m thinking about this one.

    More tools than the hard case (oos everywhere) for the same price and I can’t find a hard case set that I like.

    I’m so over this shopping and it’s putting me in a foul mood. I told Mom today this year is it for me. She can just give us money (or nothing) if she can’t shop. I can’t shop for two households for all these people. I’ve spoiled them all!
