You guys make me feel guilty. After a year and a 100 lb weight loss I just last month did my first 5k WALKING. I am having a hard time working up to a jog. I feel like I am going to fall when I do. My balance hasn't caught up to the weight loss I think. I keep trying hopefully it will get better.

Use one of the Couch to 5K apps. That's what I did. You start out only jogging for I think 45 seconds? And repeat weeks as often as you need to so you feel comfortable before you move on to the next one. I think it took me a year to finally figure out how to run the full 5K without injuring myself. And still, when I'm tired, I trip on the GROUND, because I am not picking my feet up even high enough to clear it. :lol:

My son took a long nap after Black Friday shopping. He was up at 5 am. :lol: His collections consist of guns and ammo. He doesn’t care about shoes. He brought home lots of ammo and gun accessories for his Christmas gifts. Of course he had to show me each one. And he had to put things on his guns and I told him he had to wait and put them back in their boxes. :laugh: Talk about an expensive hobby! :blink: I sometimes go shooting with him and it is fun but not my favorite thing to do.

I guess I'll post this over here to just in case if there's anyone in the entire world that doesn't already have an Aegis product that would like one vape Wild has an Aegis solo with Tengu rda kit limited color options but black is one of them for $30. They also have a gift that you can put in your cart that is a mystery it's $4.99 but there's a code that makes it free I believe it's BF gift. I don't know what the gift is no clue but it is free after you put the code in. There's some ejuice sales too both their house brand and name brands but it's like 10% off for the name brands

Shoes and purses are like vape gear...NOT meant to be counted! I really don’t want to know the actual number... I just know it’s one less than I need when I’m shopping ;)
My shoes are why my vape gear must go downstairs! :lol: No more room in the closet. I should get my vape cabinet next week and I’m going to set it up. :thumbs: I’m not waiting until Christmas.

Yeah,people think vaping is a big rabbit hole,but guns make vaping seem very cheap haha.I have too many hobbies and they are all expensive,shooting and collecting guns and gear,vaping,my old Camaro,wood working,all these combined cost me a fortune.My wife thinks i'm crazy,i always hear "Do you really need another gun/mod/tool" always questioning something i'm buying haha.

I’ve spent a fortune on his guns. I told him he will need to buy any future ones. When he got hooked it was a swift fall into the rabbit hole. I feel safe though...;) I want to buy woodworking tools for him. We would both love to make things. Maybe next Christmas I’ll get him started.

My husband has done mostly high end cabinetry & trim, but plenty of home repairs as well.. I started whining about paying for storage to hold random lumber he ran across,,,, until it was all used to build our dream home,,, suddenly $25 month for a 20x 40 building of lumber seemed cheap

Hope your pup is okay!
Thank you :wub:! Just hoping he sleeps tonight! His vet is going to try and come Sunday and do acupuncture on his back (it’s gratis, and it seems to help so I don’t question). Being up gave me a chance to settle my Chef’s order for today when the sale started.Then.... Window shopped mods and tanks and didn’t see anything earth shattering. I already have a couple RDAs and RDTAs coming from FT. I did more Christmas shopping than anything.

Ok,, Nola has at least 2 closets! 1 shoes & 1 for vape,,, and hidden stashes she wont admit to :D
Hah! Most of my vape gear is under the bed in bins! But I do have two closets. One is shoes and purses, the other is clothes, shoes and purses :lol:. That really sounds worse than it probably is....No heels, lots of mocs, cowboy boots, and leather sandals. I do own a dress, but mostly jeans, fishing shirts or tees.

    Yes but are they standard closets or walk ins?

    Well, on top of the poly cones, and the silicone tape, I also used argon to replace the air first too.... lmao :)
    Can't argue with that. I've been sorta tempted to add an inert gas test to my nic storage/aging experiments.

    Deep standard. I got into a tiff with the architect when we were building because I wanted two closets for me on my side of the bathroom, and two for Himself on his; instead of the walk-in he insisted was the ONLY way to go (I won). I know my limitations. A German engineer would wipe a happy tear away when looking at my hubs, and probably have a stroke or sudden blindness on mine. As long as I can find what I need promptly, a little organized chaos doesn’t bother me.

    Vape gear on the other hand is sorted by type and packed neatly in marked bins. Glad I have a high bed to stick them under, cause there’s no room in the closets for anything vaping except current stuff, building supplies and diy.

    Yoga was great (but the husband was grumpy.)

    I do not understand purse people but this is because I am a Gigantic Purse lady and the idea of transferring all the things I "need." (And I do wallet, denture adhesive (you do not want to be without) snus, oh say 3-4 mods, meds, etc., I can't do it. Oh and Ricolas. I have many things in my giant purse which I always buy from Target (usually) and it is 100% of the time like black and silver and I test its ability to handle the load by putting my CURRENT purse on top of it. Then, if it holds up (I do some bouncing) and then I take it home and move everything,

    LOL. I clean my purse once in a blue moon and I just did it. Some weird stuff ends up in there sometimes.

    I refuse to buy more heels, got rid of most of mine except the ones *I* consider hot (not comfortable, hot) a few sneakers, hiking boots and clogs.

    My most hated job ever was doing a CPS Needs Assessment/Grant for like the Tribe I worked at. It was business casual and I'm sorry I am no fan of that. Also, I worked in a PROSECUTOR's OFFICE and it was HORRIBLE. The only guy I liked was like this Hopi lawyer (they are the sweetest tribe) who got recruited to be the Hopi I forget the name, but like HEAD DUDE and he was as happy to get out as I was. Never have I been so bored and irritated at the same time and the woman who I worked with had not passed her bar exam FOUR times. She was fat , ugly, mean and overall distasteful. LOL I told her my sister was clerking for a Judge. She was like "I could never do that."

    I was like, "Well no you couldn't because you'd have to pass the bar, But this is a Federal Judge on the 9th Circuit."

    She was like. "Oh.That's different." I was like, "Yep we know how to get licensed in my family ALL of use with licensure exams passed it you know, the first time. Good luck have you hired a tutor yet?"

    To be fair I HATED her. LOL. And the job. I did a good job but it just SUUUCKED,

    Vape room is COMING ALONG I gotta eat though. Seriously, but I think tomorrow it may be organized, YAY!
