Good morning, everyone.
Robin, why are you up so early?
Sorry to hear it. I had that exact same problem last year--it was like my body adjusted to the time change the wrong way.I keep wakin' up at 5am for no good reason.

I got PIFd an istick TC40W and whoever bought it for me asked the vendor to not include a packing list - it would no doubt tell me who the purchaser was - but the return address on the shipping label told me who the vendor was. I e-mailed them and they wouldn't tell me who ordered it (s/he must have a good relationship with them). Anyway, I cruised through their website and the TC40W is only $40 at their online store. I do not know if they are a registered supplier on ECF, so if you want to know, PM me. Mine was a special edition (wood grain coating on the metal - not a sticky - and that was still the price).
Other great news: I got the shock of a lifetime today. I went out earlier to help a neighbor cut firewood. I was "invited" by a friend, not by the old guy (80ish) we were cutting this wood for. When I got there, there were a couple friends cutting cedar with their chainsaws and about a dozen 4-H kids picking it up and stacking. I asked what they wanted me to do because it was very obvious they did not need my help - even the kids knew what they were doing (they're all farm/ranch kids, so this is not new to them). I asked one of the ladies about it and she said the local 4-H club was doing "community service." When this huge trailer load of wood was about half done, everyone quit and went to the old guy's back porch for cookies. I asked my friend if I needed to help with the rest of the wood and he told me, "Not until we get it all over to your place and you can tell us where to stack it." Huh? Apparently he knew what a struggle I was having out cutting my firewood this year and several of the neighbors and all these 4-H kids did all the work. When we got to my place, not only did my friend have lots of cedar posts to unload, but a guy who I had thought didn't even like me the past 10 years brought a horse trailer full of already cut up firewood, which the 4-H kids (four of which were his children) unloaded and stacked it all in my garage. When it was all done, I looked at all the wood and, while I still have some cutting and splitting to do - right here at home - I don't think I need to go out in the field again this year. Amazing! Thank you Universe! (Of course, I thanked all the people too.) Wow!

I LOVE my Innokin products! I have the Disruter, the Coolfire 4, and the MVP 3.0 Pro in my daily rotation right now, and a whole bunch of their other mods in retirement. They are solid, perform very well, and last forever. I have yet to have one that has died on me for any reason and I have been using their products for over 3 years now. I am SUPER excited about the new TC mods they have coming out shortly, the Cortex and the Disrupter TC. Of course their tanks are also top notch. My favorite tank right now is the Apex, and I love the iSub line as well. Both of those tanks are getting upgraded soon as well. Great company with amazing products.i have heard mixed feelings on innokins units.. but i will say that i LOVE the tanks.
Almost ditto..............I have been up till at least 3 AM for a few nights..........but everything is closed up and I keep trying to get sleepy......last night I was hearing every little noise and thinking it was the fire alarm......Huh... I keep going to bed at around 3 am for no good reason...
Aww you guys. Seriously, I just would not have felt right "winning" for a post that I was trying to make for YOU (hence, the tag in the post, lol!)! If you had been able to post that video, that would have been your post, not mine. And now I think I am probably not following contest rules because this is my second post in just a few minutes, so I am adding the disclaimer NOT AN ENTRY.I tried to get her to take them!!!!
On here and in pm!
lol- stubbornness!
We like having you here. So, you should stop by more often! And thank you again for posting the video that I found. I figured everyone would like it…Aww you guys. Seriously, I just would not have felt right "winning" for a post that I was trying to make for YOU (hence, the tag in the post, lol!)! If you had been able to post that video, that would have been your post, not mine.

Back then, I was a daredevil. I drove up there one week before the big eruption. The national guard had all the roads blocked (manned blockades), so I went around them. My Jeep CJ5 loved fire roads. Anyway, I got all the way up to Spirit Lake, but never got to meet the oldt guy who lived at the lodge like forever and refused to leave. One week to the day later, that whole piece of mountain was blown off! Lots of people, thousands of animals, and a million trees ceased to exist in an hour. One week. @KatzWh1skers just talked about the crossroads in time... I wouldn't be here today if I had evaded the roadblocks one week later...I hiked into the caldera of Mt. St. Helens, 10 yrs after the eruption.
They do indeed! I have known a great many very generous people, both with their time, possessions, and money, but they were all country folks. I never once met a city person that would give the time of day without some remuneration of some sort... Until I joined this forum (and the cow forum Lannie is on). Here there are people from all around the world, urban, suburban, and country, who take great joy in helping others - people they have never even met, much less live next door to. I have always been the one to freely help others and, with extreme reluctance and discomfort, have received help. I don't know why I have such a hard time accepting the same charity I so willingly give, but "Life" is teaching me that it is not even supposed to be a one-way street. Welcome to the REAL "family"...Sometimes humans actually give me faith in the goodness of it all
