My ma-in-law swears that Dimetapp cures everything in babies. Colic, upset tummy, runny nose, fever. Everything.
Emma is a pain. She will not take meds, she goes nuclear if we try. She doesn't have a fever so I'm not stressing her over it.

Do you know how hard it is to stay awake with kids shows on? Like they're designed to put adults in a coma.

Where is she hurting from?

She's just stuffy and lethargic.

Not to bore you guys but...

Her grandmother watches her while we're at work. Her Great-grandfather had an operation yesterday so her g'ma stayed at hospital. He's had a minor complication and she stayed. Emma feeling a little sick, someone had to stay home. Cassie missed Monday so my turn to stay home.

Em's fine...ish.

Yes. It takes a couple of days to adjust but i could not vape flavored now. Unflavored is a wrong term anyway, it is a great clean natural flavor. You really dial in your taste by vaping unflavored. Anything flavored now just tastes chemical. I now and again try a hit of my wife’s medicine flower vanilla. Although delicious I soon crave my unflavored.

Nic/pg/vg is very satisfying to vape for this vapor -er.

Hi shiners! MIA for a few days due to personal drama mediating between my daughter and my ex. Fortunately no one suffered a disfiguring injury and the casts should come off in about 6 weeks.

No shiny for me as my FT package had nothing to get super excited about. Still, better than nothing.

I'm struggling with understanding folks using retail juice all the time. Due to my personal situation I'm sorta stuck with that as I can't mix where I am, and I'm getting tired of having to rewick every few days. These things gunk up coils and wicks in no time. My DIY can go over a week before I start to think about cleaning and a fresh wick. Good thing I have lots of cotton on hand.

Otherwise likes to all and I'll sample what everyone has been up to as best I can.

Oh, sorry to hear it. I hope she feels better soon. Having your child ill is always stressful, even just the sniffles. As to cartoon network, I was always taken in by the utter hallucinogenic effects of SpongeBob, so that's an option to help you keep awake as you ponder "really????"

She'll reluctantly take Tylenol. Until she complains of pain or gets a fever I'm not going to push it.

Right now she's just chilling, YouTube and blowing her nose. I'm struggling to stay awake.
Sorry to hear about your girl hope she feels better soon. Dealing with sick kids is tough. it's so frustrating but you also feel so bad for them. Alex had scarlet fever one time. We left for urgent care when his fever hit 102.5 by the time we got to the Dr. It had reached 105.4. Scariest day of my life. He melted 12 ice packs over 3 hours. If you get fever mix ibuprofen and acetominophen and give it to them. Tylenol brings it down faster and Advil lasts longer. Will she take a bath? That usually makes them feel better. Alex was always good about taking medicine. He doesn't even mind Vapo Rub. They have medicine gummies if they refuse. Tricks them into taking it.

Only once did my daughter have a fever that got above 105. I just took her and threw her in the bathtub filled with cold water. I think she hated me for several days, but that goes with the territory of being a parent

We went to the doctor when cool bath and Tylenol stopped working. Had no idea that it was Scarlet Fever. That was a 1900's thing or so we thought. It has been making a comeback. Antibiotics beat it on 2 days. Without antibiotics it can be fatal. He became very listless. He was not really there. Had to carry him in.

They will probably rebrand them as candy flavorings. They would still be available under a different name. My best guess.
When I went to the baker’s supply store with my daughter (she’s the baker, I’m just the “wallet”), there were some familiar names in the flavorings aisle. So, that’s possible

Try Chef Rubber. I am not positive if it is still open but you can try them online. I used to buy the stuff for my sugar sculptures there. They have a large section devoted to hard candy supplies including flavorings.

Got my Exus Ark in silver/brown recently, but haven't played with it yet... This past weekend, I was in Lake Placid, NY for a Can/Am Hockey tournament that my son's hockey team competed in. All of the games, barring one, was located at the Olympic Center, where the Herb Brooks Arena (1980 Olympic Rink) is and my son's team came home with the Bronze Medal. :w00t:

Anyone have a chance to test theirs out yet?

So I looked but didn't see much that would work.

I've been a bad girl. As soon as my student loan refund came in, I ordered a Sigelei T200. I don't actually need another device - I already have a Vaporesso Revenger and an Arymi M1. Additionally, I've been doing a great job at only buying a new device when I need one for YEARS. But... one of my friends has the G-Priv and ever since I saw it, I have wanted a touch screen device... plus coming back to this forum has given me the fever again... LOL.
