I mean, the mopping thing-- You start in whatever area FAR from where you want to dump your final tank of water, and then you work your way backwards, going to increasingly dirty areas.... Then, you dump your water and like, BOOM. I even use two bar mops (I am in love with bar mops they are my favorite things) to SWISH your way out of like, the area where you just mopped, an upon your way back to-- wherever, if you missed a spot, you can Pippi Longstocking it with the bar mop. You also need one of those BUCKET mops with a squeezer, I cannot emphasize this enough.

First time I ever had to mop the floor I backed myself into a corner. Lesson learned.
Tsk, tsk, tsk ... mopping floors??? :confused: You guys. :D
The only way to get floors truly clean is on hands and knees and scrubbing them. That's how I do my kitchen and bathroom.

I'm sorry, all I could find was pic's of women scrubbing floors.

Been there, done that. It's why I hired a maid.My work schedule didn't lend itself to cleaning, and none of my ex-spouses had cleaning in their skill set.

Aww Eskie, that sucks. I try to clean when I can and cook when I can, just because... You should.

I had this one year where I like maintained a "show house" I literally it was the kind of thing that like, you vacuumed and made sure all the magazines were show houses. I really think it actually was the result of THE MOST TRAUMATIC event of my life when my kid was almost STOLEN from me (by my own mother) but she did not realize that CPS was ah, DISPASSIONATE and did not take kindly to lies, and all I had was a Very Bad Med reaction I BEGGED my doctor to NOT do (I made him write a letter to CPS) and he did anyway. I would up in New Mexico and like, that wasn't good. Then I was in the psych unit for 6 weeks being tortured by a sadist, and I finally got transferred and the whole time I was freaking OUT because they almost sent him back to my EX and I was like to my mom "YOU WILL DIE IF THAT HAPPENS."

So when I got out I had this really good CPS worker she was new and she saw things clearly. We got our kiddo back insanely fast for AZ, like 8 months or something but we had all these parenting CPS classes and I could've pretty much run them but like had to be pretending to be all DV and downtrodden so I'd get good reports and the husband also had mucho classes and at the end of my case my CPS worker was like, "They did not have a case to begin with" which was SO TRUE.

I had a really hard time living across the street from my mom after that which is why I eventually moved. But I was on forced treatment of Depakote thanks to my doc, and it really made me, IDK, lose IQ points. I would get up, cook, clean the house, go for a walk with the dogs, go to an AA meeting, that was about it. I sort of needed that year to recalibrate, man. I CANNOT TELL you how TERRIFYING it is to watch your own parent NEGLECT your kid my mom was straight up like, "I will not take care of him like you do. I don't have the energy. I am tired. He doesn't need a charter school."

Then every time I would call the CPS worker and my mom would be like. "FINE. Charter it IS. STOP calling the CPS worker!!!!" And I would be like, "STOP like, NEGLECTING HIM then."

Seriously it was terrifying. They used inkblot tests to diagnose me and the husband with personality disorders, despite my saying to the psych evaluator. "You KNOW these are completely subjective they have no validity at ALL." Then she was like, "they have been redone." And I was like, "Listen I elevated the MMPI LIE scale on PURPOSE okay? (They're like these really dumb questions like, "Do you ever get mad at family or friends' and if you answer "Never" (dude especially during a CPS case when your MOM stole your kid) they know you are lying. SO dumb.) "But, I don't want you guys having ANY way to assess me it is none of your BUSINESS. YOU KNOW they don't work, that is why you are using them."

When I finally got them in the mail I burst into tears and called my lawyer (who was super good actually) to find out if I could get the kid BACK EVER. She was like, "OH no, these are great, I can work with THESE, no problem." It made me wonder what some other ones had (my IQ was still pretty stellar despite heh, the drugs) but one lady said her psych eval was like "You are unable to care for yourself, let alone children." OMG.

Anyway, the day the kid returned was the happiest of my life and I needed to be a housewife for a bit, to recover from the trauma of everything. It was necessary.

But what I MEANT to say was I got a Thor for like 20 bucks, the old one. I LOVE those mods, I was like "I don't need the new one and 20 is not much.

So yes, I shinied .But. it was chill. Also Walmart is done all my clothes are getting clean and goodness I don't know how it all happened but I was SUPER chill. 3 dudes hit on me at Walmart, too. I have NO CLUE why, either. I looked.... In my own opinion pretty rough.

Maybe I usually look okay but normally have my "Too much thyroid I will eat you face on." Perhaps.

LOL trying for an early night. Yoga a five tomorrow, whee

    OK serious stuff time - I got vapemail :D

    BTW I officially have more squonk mods than bf RDAs :facepalm: The RDAs should or better be here in the next day or two.

    squeeze2.jpg


    Meet the Squeeze 2 - next to the Luna so you can see the size differences.

    As a 21700 8ml regulated squonk mod, I'm impressed with it. It's heavier and wider than a Luna, but it is also extremely comfy to hold, fire and squonk. With my small hands, the fire button position is perfect. But if I wasn't used to side firing, it would feel weird til I got used to it.

    Keep in mind I've only used it for half a day. As soon as my Hussar v1 RDAs turn up, I'll put it through its paces.

    I got it for a rediculous $23.99 at Vapesourcing. They still have some red and purple ones left at that price if anyone wants some stash mods :thumb:

    Oh wow that looks absolutely stunning and i think the ss frame looks great on it. I’ll have to see what I have for matching RBAs lol!!

    How did you polish the steel?

    Did you detail which method you used to that glossy finish. I’m sorry I keep getting lost in this thread and my nighttime meds don’t make it any easier to keep things in chronological order. Thanks!

    Do vent holes in a mech tube really make that much difference? It's not like they are going to make it any safer if the battery goes thermal.

    If it gets hot toss it, it's not like you would try to take the battery out.
    Mind you I've always felt that there would be be time to remove the battery as it started to get warm. If you were holding it you'd know way before things got critical.

    Having said that that guys I would council everyone to just toss it as suggested :D

    Yes I did Sara just a bit further back :wub:

    Here it is again.... Start at 220 grit and sand the side and including the painted SS. Do that until you've got all the paint off and all the deeper marks on the wood. Then it's just a mater of going up through the grits until you're up at 10000 or so... Then finish with a buffing wheel. :wub:

    Morning all.

    My tracking updates are looking like nothing is getting here until at least tomorrow. Which is okay because I don’t know if I’ll get to the PO today anyway. Gotta put myself together and get outta here, get some stuff done today. Hopefully it rains after I’m done, or at least not too heavily. Everywhere is crazy with orange barrels.

    Good morning shiners! I've got one delivery marked late even though it's in NY, so we'll see what happens with that. My China orders just seem to sit at the airport waiting for their boarding call to be announced. And I really need to rewick some attys. I've been using some major gunk up juices and they look terrible. Amazing the taste is OK but to look at the coils you'd think I pulled them out of a sewer.

    Good morning Shiny's
    Still no tracking from ivapesupply.com for the Dovpo vee. Their email address is full and won't accept messages, I hate being forced to phone a vendor. On the bright side I have already have a shipping label from fuu.
    @AngeNZ yes I have said fuu a few times, more because I like the word better than famas. Lovely setups btw.
