I'm not even going to go into it because it's too ugly to go through but the car from hell is finally out of here. I had over 6 10 hr. days in it

My good friend just stopped by with six bottles of differend fragrances of WEN for me. I wont have to buy shampoo for a couple yrs. She also brought me a pizza. She is a nice lady and a good friend.
Any of you that use menthol eliquid that tastes like menthol instead of mint I would be very greatful to know what it is. I'm trying to get this lady away from stinkies and she has to have menthol.

Are you a WENNER 5? It's great for your hair, but I couldn't get it to work for mine. I'm sure there's a learning curve and perhaps if I tried harder, but it left mine limp and lifeless. (there's a classic UTC guys! haha) Anyways, enjoy your WEN. The creator grew up in Doylestown PA which isn't all that far from me and is just the sweetest man. Love Chaz Dean!!

We are on day 3 here of next to no sun. No swimming for us! At least the ACs do not have to work as hard.

5c, I was a menthol smoker. Does she like altoids mints? If so, get some Hans' ADV from AltCig. I really like it. And it reminds me of the altoids.

Hans' ADV

She wants it to tase like menthol. The stuff she got tasted like mint. Thankyou though Sash and I'll relay it to her.

Midas Menthol !!!! I tried it at our new B&M and I'm hooked. I add to fruit flavors and it's fantastic.
I'll look it up and order some Wharf and thank you very much. I tried a few and gave up when I started vaping because it tasted like mint and I wanted menthol too.

She gave me a huge bottle with the spray stuff and the cream about a month ago and I really liked it. I had to get used to the no suds thing but it did wonders for my hair. Thats why I was surprised she brought over about 5 more different fragrances. One smell is as good as another to me for shampoo but the thought was there. I told her it was working because I already had a couple tweets from a couple hollywood stars.

5cs, liquid menthol concentrate, from perfumers apprentice, will instantly turn a liquid into a Menthol version.

It is used sparingly, about 3% (1 ml added to 30 ml of eliquid), even less if you just want to slightly punch things up.

If you have a good base tobacco eliquid, add a little of this and you'll likely have a nice result.

Glad the car from hell is gone 5! I know it was a pain, but it's a very kind thing you did :) I'm not into menthol, but you already have some great suggestions.

Tracy, not much sun here either, and some pretty bad wind damage in northern CT with this afternoon's t'storms. They haven't decided yet if it was a tornado or not.

Dee, hug your mama for all of us! You talk about her so much that she's become the Notcigs family Gramma ;)

Today was one of those days where I hit the floor running and haven't stopped...until now. Yup, I even missed my afternoon nap and that's very rare lol. Yall know that I've been with Notcigs for over a year now, and I have to go about cashing my check in a PITA manner since I don't have a bank account. (don't ask!) I have to deposit it into Katie's account, then she writes me a check. They all know me down there, they know Katie, they know how I'm related to her and that I take care of her finances. Small town, everybody knows your business. This time I go to do the cashing ritual and the branch manager tells me she'll let them cash it this one last time but from now on, unless I open my own account, I'm SOL. That account comes with a $12 a month fee...not just no, but HELL NO you ain't getting any more of my money, or business!! The search began for a bank that doesn't mind dealing with us poor folk that they can't make a buck off of...and I found one :)

My little Chase man has been in need of a grooming since my clippers crapped out halfway thru his last grooming, but my groomer moved to a new place and I can't find her new number to save my life! So I go back to the old place and they had an opening this afternoon. Dashed back to the house and grabbed Chase, got back home to eat lunch about 3:30. No Mrs. Brown's Boys today because I still hadn't checked the tech emails, so took care of that while I oinked down my lunch. 5:30 I had to go back and get Chase, lookin' good from his grooming, but $10 more than my old groomer charged.

Somewhere in between all that, I hit the grocery store. Did I make yall tired? I'm pooped!

Y'all sound busy today and so was I...
I get a call from my BFF today wanting to come for a visit with her Granddaughter. We had lunch and a great time as always. Her granddaughter is so cute! (she's 1 and a half) Maddie loved playing with her but since she's usually THE baby, she did get a little jealous at times. :)
My BFF liked my terrarium so much that I went out and got all the stuff and made her one for her desk at work. She's thrilled and now I'll get to see her again soon when she picks it up or I deliver it. (She's about 40 mins away in PA)
We really need to get together more often!

Bo Chase bank, if you have them back there, will give you $200.00 if you open an acct. with direct deposit. Chase $200 Checking Account Bonus Coupon Code Offers- Direct Deposit Needed – til 8/15/2013
Next time I have to fix someones car I'm flying you out here to help. Your a good little worker Bo. I'm back fixing computers. Less dirt and it's inside. Working on a desktop for a friend right now and I have a laptop I gotta fix someday. The parts are here but I'm just not in the mood. I like desktops a lot better than laptops.

I've been on a spin as well....Much was accomplished today.....

I'd seen a landscape rake at a friend's house last week...$82 for that dang rake....2 days back I see one that's still new for $30 on the CL...I call but I'm to late as someone is picking it up today...The guy says I get next crack at it if things go South...They did and I'll get that dang rake tomorrow....

I like to fancy my self as somewhat of a craftsman...Years back I saw Jesse James fabbing a motorcycle tank on tv...He was gas welding aluminum with a torch I'd never seen before...Dig as I might I never could find out what brand of torch it was...Then as luck would have it I stumbled upon the torch at a car show.....Twas a Henrob...a new style of cutting and welding with old school acetylene and oxygen...Only drawback was it was kinda expensive and I already had a torch and a nice welder...Couple days back the CL comes thru again...I got the Henrob in my hot little hands!!!! I can't wait to light some stuff on FIRE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The elderly gentleman who so graciously sold me the Henrob took a liking to me...We rode around on his golf cart for a tour of his property...Then he opened up another shop to show me a 31 Plymouth convertible...He painted it and everything...I'm telling you it was sweet...We vowed to save each others numbers and hang out again...This cat has knowledge that I can gain and I fully intend to do so..He wants a new tractor and I'm on the lookout...He had three nice old Fords but wants a newer Kubota/JD...You just never know what experiences the day will bring...Today was epic....

Sounds like a great day Tracy! And making her one of your terrariums for her desk will have her thinking of you every time she sees it :)

5, interesting that you posted the Chase link, I got mail regarding them today...it was not a very nice letter ;) And thank you for the compliment.

Dee, your day goes into the Journal of Life! Always nice to score something you admire, but priceless to meet someone you can admire. Congratz on both!

Sometimes us elderly gentlemen can learn some new tricks from you young whippersnappers too.

Especially whippersnappers like you, El Dee.
