Random DIY mixing and More

So sorry you are hurting! I know that when you have a chiropractic adjustment, your muscles sometimes try to revert to how they were before the adjustment — this is referred to as muscle memory and they can undo what the chiropractor did. I would wait until tomorrow and if you are still in bad shape, go back to the chiropracter. I also recommend ice packs. When my back is bad I lay on ice packs for 45 minutes and it really helps a lot. Hope you are feeling better soon!

Thanks. It is feeling much better today. I’m on my feet most of the day on concrete at work. I’m surprised I don’t have pain more often.

Sometimes I think our family is just trading Amazon gift certificates and I am like WHY BOTHER.

For the second year in a row, everyone is getting handcrafted Christmas presents. Last year, it was paint by number paintings. I brought all the paintings I had done, and everyone chose one to be framed. This year I'm giving everyone a diamond art painting framed ring a hanging frame. I don't know about next year's craft. Anybody got any ideas?

Not me. I never really got into crafts. I do draw for fun but nothing giftable.

Just work stuff. I'm also going to try mix some of the new flavors I got yesterday. I can't decide if I actually want to do a SFT, or try to find a recipe. I added about 9 or 10 new flavors from WF in this order, plus a couple of SSA flavors. I'm also wanting to mix something up with FLV Wild Melon.

What is on your agenda?

Good morning mixers. I'm hoping for a better day at work than I had yesterday.

Crochet a blanket (I've given away many, but the way I crochet it would take a year or more to do one), cross stitch (I gave a beautifully framed "Home Sweet Home" picture I cross stitched to my best friend when she got married), have Walmart put their pet's picture or family picture on a mouse pad (I've done it many times), have a photo collage put on a coffee cup (yep, Walmart), propagate plants from one of yours and put in a pot with a nice bow (yep), DIY soaps, embroider a nice picture and frame it (yep), burn their last name on a nice piece of wood with a magnifying glass and the sun (yep). Next year I'm going to take all of Mom and Dad's pictures and scan them and put them on a thumb drive(s) for everyone. I've already mentioned the recipe book I made. I can't wait until I retire...I'll be a crafting fool!

No more Decatur Black Cherry. Or at least not at pipesandcigars.com.
They can't sell the blend, but they can ship all of the separate tobaccos together for you to blend. A whole box full of Black Cherry. I would waste $20 worth like that.

I hope so too for your sake. That did not sound like too much fun yesterday.

@Territoo I forgot one...you can make a homemade wreath for their front door. And yep I've done it. *giggle* When I had more time on my hands that is.

If there was a prize given for gift shopping I think my older daughter would win. She actually loves shopping and she doesn’t need to ask for ideas.

Some people are really good at picking out the best gifts. I am not one of those people.

So as I posted earlier, I have several new WF flavors. I am thinking Crumble Topping or Cobbler plus Bosenberry Raspberry might go well together. Or I have Flapper Pie and Crispy Wafer now too. I welcome anyone's thoughts on how to test these out. I have never been all too big on SFT.

I’m not big on sft’s either and only do those I think are necessary. I’ve become a fan of 2 flavor mixes using 1 known flavor and one new.

I like the idea of do that much more than SFT. Do you have any suggestions for a good "known" flavor to mix with some of these?

Good morning mixers! I did get my small BCF order the other day. It's sitting awaiting being used. I'm so sick I cannot see straight. I did tell you all they purposely lost my covid test. Very unsafe infection control procedures. I have to hang up my nursing hat for awhile since I have no clue if I have covid. I'm going to try to go to a national guard testing site next Tuesday for real results.
