I forgot to mention that I got an email from Misthub yesterday that they are definitely not closing and will be shipping to customers. They didn't say how or the cost. Also, I got an email this morning from sourcemore saying that new shipping methods will be available after the mail ban. I still don't regret stocking up prior to this happening. If nothing else, those of us that have stocked up will have saved ourselves the expense of higher shipping costs. I don't see how any of the places that continue shipping will be able to ship anywhere near the price that they did with USPS.
I got the email from sourcemore too. I just thought maybe they will be labelling everything "parts" and "metal tubes" like some other places do.

    Morning all. Drinking coffee on my porch and watching the rain. I feel like today is going to be a "stay inside" day.

    How bout you all?
    Forecast here is for all day rain. I plan to mix a tea and milk. Maybe rewick the Ares2.

    It rained more here overnight and was just barely misting this morning. The forecast had snow in it but if it did then it must have melted instantly. After two days in a row I've had my fill of the rain. It's supposed to be nice this weekend and I'm going to get my lawn chemicals put down. Then next week the rain will be back again. I get tired of our super rainy spring seasons.
    Today is the only day of rain in our forecast so far.

    Somewhere between here and there
    It rained a lot here yesterday. We came out of all the storms unscathed. And although multiple places had tornadoes, and I feel bad for those with damage, nobody was injured or killed that I know of. The main line of storms that came through late didn't seem to be tornadic so I was able to go to bed at a normal time.

    Last weekend my grass was splotchy as it always is in spring...but after the rain it grew about three inches and the entire backyard has greened out. This weekend I mow the front and sides. It's supposed to be beautiful this weekend.

    My Heartland nic is rescheduled for delivery today. My ecigmafia order has shipped. So I'm waiting on a nic order, a gear order, then another nic order. I am so done! I have no desire for anything else. It will feel nice (for me) to be stocked and not have to worry about ordering anything for the rest of my life except vg and flavors. WHEW! The last year and a half has been a whirlwind, not only trying to figure out how to vape again, but stocking what I needed. I'm not spending another dime on vaping.

    I need to start pulling out some mods about every month to try them and just keep a rotation going. I haven't had a chance to use hardly anything I bought. Which reminds me I need to put my new gear in my spreadsheet. I'll do it later...work is already busy.

    I'm glad you were able to get through the storm undamaged and without harm. My yard is still splotchy but the green areas are getting larger. I'll put down preventer and fertilizer this weekend. We normally don't hardly get any branches or anything on the ground from our trees in the front but I've already picked up a fairly big pile of small branches and more have fallen. Kind of weird for us. I wonder if it had anything to do with the two weeks of super cold temps.

    My Heartland order hasn't shipped yet but my BCF order is out for delivery today along with a small snus order. Other than that, I still have packages coming from China from FT, Sourcemore, and Everzon. All of them shipped besides one from sourcemore that was a pre order for some replacement pods.

    Glad you're safe. Nasty storms.

    I didn't even know it existed. Nobody tells me anything. I'm gonna eat worms. :)
    FlavourArt milks... I did some research. ;)

    FA Condensed Milk, HIC gave it a "Beware" but went on to describe how best to use it. In his notes he does say "Condensed Milk can erase existing sweetness from other flavors in a recipe." Could be useful and fairly neutral used that way. Also advised to use it at no more than 0.25%. It's strong.

    FA Milk is available at Chefs. It has really good reviews. I'm ordering a couple bottles.
    Milk - Flavourart

    When you eat those worms please shoot video and share it here. :D

    It's colder here than it has been, but at least the sun is out. Yesterday was was overcast and rainy. No thunderstorms or tornadoes. I've got two orders pending, neither have shipped. One is a bunch of mods from Avail that I never would have bought if it wasn't for @AvaOrchid twisting my arm :), and then I have a nic order from River Supply.

    I ordered something from Avail over the weekend and it hasn't shipped yet either. I figure they are just backed up a bit because of the sale.

    You and Skeebo keep saying how good it is. It's in my BCF order. Can't wait to try it.

    It's very versatile too... That mixer known as Nevans hittman and I talk about from time to time has it as one of his favorite pudding flavors when used at low percentages. I've used it as low as 1.5 and as high as 6 percent. I'm curious to hear your thoughts on it.

    Me, too. @AvaOrchid had an order on Friday and Monday and hers shipped together yesterday. I had 2 orders back to back on Monday, I hope ship today. I expect they will combine them which is okay.

    I wonder if online stores might start using services like Uber as an alternative shipping method. Besides Uber there are Lyft, Didi Chuxing, Grab, Ola, Cabify, Careem, Bolt, Yandex.Taxi, Via, and Gojek.

    It will be interesting to see how bypassing the stoopid mail ban shakes out.

    I'm pretty sure you just made up half of those company names.

    I can't wait to try it. Don't think I've ever gone 6% with any flavor solo or in a mix. I was taught DIY by a buddy and his wife. They used to own a local vape shop and sold many of their creations there. I was instructed to go low w/%'s because I couldn't stand the over flavored and sweet commercial juices. DIY saved me from going back to smokes. :)

    Haha ya caught me... some of them were names of canines we used to have. ;) j/k

    Those are all real Uber competitors. Uber Connect already delivers packages. They launched package delivery services last year at the beginning of the pandemic.

    I can see their competitors following suit. None would want to lose market share.

    Happy Thursday, turbulators.

    After two days in a row I've had my fill of the rain.

    If it's only two consecutive days, it must be summer. :)

    Good morning Folks :)

    I have a couple errands to run (actually I will be driving ;)). Other than that not much is going on. I'll figure out something to get into.

    It rained here overnight. Now it's nice and getting sunny. Temps are a comfortable 40 degrees, hoodie weather. :D

    The Vogue Green is definitely my favorite color of the 5 I have. After getting it and seeing how much prettier it is in person than what the pictures of it show...I should've gotten 2 of it and only 1 of the Pink, instead of 2. :facepalm:


    Well Ya' could always order a few more . . . You know Ya' don't have enough "Stuff" yet . . .:img:

    Just Sayin' . . . :rolleyes:
