    Older Folks and Vaping Back Porch - Part 2

    Hi all! Haven't caught up but wanted to wish everyone a Happy New Year! My gall bladder decided to kick my ..... for a few days, so I haven't been around, but it finally gave up yesterday so I was able to have a little champagne last night. Best wishes to everyone! Debbie

    I grew up in Lake Worth. Lived in Live Oak and Orlando as an adult. Mom lives in Sebastian after being in WPB for 30+ yrs. Have no desire to be any further south than Sebastian. I'd like to find a spot in Ormand Beach, but it's expensive. Daytona's not bad, price wise, for older homes, just have...

    Property prices are on the rise in FL now. Would be the time to buy, before they get crazy high again.

    Morning ya'll! Nice to see some of you still have family visiting. You're blessed. :) Been looking at condos in FL, haven't decided if I'll try to stay here or move down with the rest of the old people in 'god's waiting room'. :laugh: So much less hassle. No yard work to deal with, etc. Some...

    I made a major mistake yesterday when watching tv. I spent 5 hrs (5!!) watching the dullest, most boring thing I have ever seen on HBO. Parade's End. I love history and it was England during the 1st WW. I kept thinking it was bound to 'pick up the pace' at some point. NOPE. That's 5 hrs I'll...

    Thanks Mike, don't know how it got changed from RMS, but it had. I had checked it before. OK now. Caught up from yesterday, best wishes to all. Got in late last night and was too tired to even think about the porch. Climbed in bed and took care of the cat a couple hrs later. Got 30 mins from...

    I had a cheap, Liberty Flights, version that I used constantly for about 6 months. Loved it! Finally quit working after being dropped an untold number of times. Then immediately started having issues with the Zmax, which is why I ordered the Vamo. I'm so disappointed. Don't know what's with the...

    Absolutely! If I'd had it a while, it would be different. Being brand new, the more I thought about it, the madder I got. Of course it does seem to be a common issue with the Vamo, I may get something else instead, just to avoid the problem. Wish I had known before I ordered it. I was aware of...

    Ya know? I just got the Vamo yesterday. Adding parts or pieces to try to make it work just annoys the h*ll out of me! I put in for a return. Not gonna deal with it. Shouldn't have to be fiddling with it already. I'm ....... ETA: and my POS, year old, $5 ego batteries are still going strong...

    I always end up with extra 'little' pies. When I take pies, I buy disposable pie pans. The pans are 8 inch, the recipes are for 9 inch, so there is extra filling. So I put crust dough in a couple muffin tins and use the extra filling to make mini pies. Have yet to find disposable pie pans in a 9...

    Rut Roh! Something is wrong with the new Vamo. Not matter what tank I put on it, it says Low Ohm and they are all over 2.0, checked them on the meter and they work fine on other batteries. Changed out the battery too. Any thoughts? Did I get a bum Vamo?

    Personally, I can't seem to get my eyes open today. I think it's because of the rain. I do love to sleep when it's raining since I'm on the top floor of my building and can hear it well. :) I hope the house I buy has a metal roof, love the rain on a metal roof. Maybe my house will need...

    @Janet........isn't it amazing that WE and our kids actually managed to grow up without all the safety equipment?? My boys grew up riding bikes without knee pads, elbow pads and helmets! OMG! :ohmy: I guess we just got lucky. :ohmy:
