@ClaireW my x had her thyroid removed for the same reason. Not a huge scar bit enough that I got to call her my pez dispenser. (So surprised she's my ex). The biggest problem was balance with medication after. Make sure she tells her doctor everything , appetite,tired, cranky, wiweird pains. It's amazing how much is affected by that gland.

Oh geez. I posted and then fell asleep. There's so much to respond to. Maybe I'll just take a nap first.

On a diff note
It's been a crazy past couple of days. In short my 75 yr old mom was told 4 weeks ago she has thyroid cancer. While very treatable usually. At first it was going to be the removal of thyroid and some nodules behind it. After many scans the mass is larger than first thought. Which instead of just a small incision in neck - her chest needs to be open a few inches at bottom of neck area. Its a risky surgery but still very treatable after.

No sympathies are needed. She's dealing with this in an amazing way. To her its a process she has to go thru.

But for anyone reading! Im saying this because dr said this mass has been growing for years. Because many of us abused our body for years with tobacco -- I just want to say early detection can save lives!

While its not The easiest type of cancer to detect it was a routine check of carotid artery that showed something abnormal. Which promted dr to keep testing.

Ok I'm done. Please go on with your regularly scheduled programming. :-D



vaping one day at a time[/QUOTE]

What a coincidence - my daughter's father, who is 70, has also been diagnosed with this cancer, and is scheduled for surgery next week. But as far as we know, he just needs the small incision. Hope all goes well for your mom!

I'm hoping for some Vapemail today. Should be some more VT nic and more FA flavors. :)

Then, later this week or early next week, Vapemail from RP! :D

Sadly, no vapemail for me today. Saturday will be the only day this week and then it's only batteries and bottles.

I really want to try it, but I have too much nic already. I don't want to fall in love and still have 3 liters. And yes, I may have ordered too much, but the laws in CA were going to restrict online sales. I had to prepare for vapemagedden.

Ah the joys of living on the left coast. If it wasn't for the weather it would be best for all if we sawed it off at the state line and let it sink.
It'll be OK tho the politicians will be the 2nd ones against the wall when the revolution comes.

This will be my second VT order. ;)

What I had would have lasted me a couple of years, but then my husband started vaping. Then I became a little paranoid about vapemageddon, so I ordered another 240ml. This is on top of the 120ml of WL nic that I have in my freezer that I may never use (it's been cut, though).

With my next check I may order even more. :eek:

I'm working on a secret vaping-related project. :D

I'll be able to release some details once I get a few scripts written. Unfortunately, I don't know how long that will take.

I *think* I have more Vapemail coming today, but my second delivery of VT nic arrived. :)

I'm pretty sure he'll be coming around with the rest of our mail later. I hope my FA order is in there somewhere! I wanna try new flavors!

The outside bottles were sonic'd earlier for 3 x 3 minute cycles. The inside bottle was just mixed, and shaken for about 10 seconds. Now it's in the cleaner, and will be featured again in 10 minutes.
I don't want to say it, but that's not me. From that picture, it all looks the same to me, though it could be because I'm a dog.

Thank you! I was 8 years active Navy (That's and acronym: Never Again Volunteer Yourself....hehe!), during the Gulf War Desert Storm/Shield. And yes, I do have A LOT of stories from that period of my life! However, most of them include alcohol of some sort. Now only if I could remember what happened in those stories?????......

I knew that there was something likeable about you!

I spent Jan 64 thru Sept 73 in our NAVY. I still remember the "Acey-Duecy" club opened at 10am - daily! Beer was 15¢ a mug and 25¢ a pitcher. Bacardi and coke's were also a quarter... Go-Go girls at lunchtime and new ones at happy hour. Full band from 8 - 12 almost every night. Dinner for 2 was around $5.00.

I spent the last 3 years on shore duty where I got to enjoy this. The prior time I spent riding a round bottom destroyer all over the Med.

I may get a milk frother when I start doing big DIY projects, but for now I'm only mixing 10-30ml at a time, or 50ml for a flavor I know is right on point.

Thank you for paving the way Sir! Thing we're a little more expensive when I was in: beer $0.50 pints, $3.00 pitchers, $4-5.00 cartons of cigs, westpac widows free (unless you got cought)! However, I spent 8 years sea duty. I was suppose to rotate to shore, but no billets were available. So, instead of spending another 4 on the pond, I got out to spend the rest of my life with the wife. No regrets though. I had a good time in the canoe club, and a great life with the wife of 20 years and 1 month.

I got out for the same reason - back to sea for 12 more years... Nope. I was ready for civilian life, too. I did get to spend 3 years ashore as an instructor.

I forgot about the cigs... $2.00 a carton unless we were at sea. Then, $1.00 per carton. Yes, Mediterranean widows were the same price in Norfolk.

Just looked. Never heard of them before. Is it all pre-made?

Yeah, it's pre-made :( I still like the look of their Golden Plum flavor, I may grab it and use it to mix.

I could smell that black cherry you sent all night. I may have to add a few drops to my shampoo.

Glad to see that some things don't change from east to west! However, sometimes free was a little more expensive than I wanted to pay!

My next move is to post a new thread with my current list of flavors, asking people for new flavor suggestions. Probably won't receive much buzz right now, but I can check it later on.

I've been looking there to plan out my next order, with what sounds good. I was mainly looking for tailor-made recipes for the small stock I currently have.

I skipped the step where I vaped each flavor by itself, in favor of just diving into complex recipes. I'm pretty sure I've used all of my flavors by now, and none of them have been terrible.

Expecting more Vapemail today.

MORE GLASS BOTTLES!

And my second order of flavors from last week. Actually, I'm expecting my first order from last week today. My second arrived yesterday. :/

I should also be getting more syringes and blunt-tip needles.

Now I need to figure out a glass solution for my 12ml bottles of FA flavors. I think I'll put them in 15ml bottles.

Yay! My Zenith shipped from FastTech! Along with my cloud drip tip (65mm) and my mood drip tips. (Thumb up for one, bird up on the other, both glow in the dark)

Sent from the Otter Box around my Galaxy S4.

Um...to be honest, I'm not sure if I've actually saved any money yet from vaping instead of smoking.

I'm sure I'll get there eventually, but I've kinda been on a spending-spree.

Yep yep. Been doing this for awhile and still spending =(. Must have every flavor!!!

I know what you mean... I buy TFA this week, and find several new recipes using FA... and so it goes.

But, this is still cheaper than hanging around bars chasing women every day - and almost as much fun. Besides that, I smell better!!!

Glass Bottles didn't arrive today. I misread the UPS notice I got. They arrive tomorrow (Friday).

I'm hoping my new syringes get here tomorrow, too. The markings on a couple of mine are starting to disappear.

Other than that, much research going on with my secret project. :)
