Hello everyone! Not much to report on this end, I've just been a little down lately.

Lizzie, you are making excellent progress. All of your hard work is really paying off. I'm sure that makes you feel good at the end of each day.

Sorry your hubby didn't get that promotion Tina. I'm sure something else better will come his way soon.

I agree with you Rave... I'm so loving my vamo too even in the 18650 mode. It's really getting a workout. I have the stainless but that black chrome really catches my eye. It's absolutely gorgeous! I just may pay fast tech another visit very soon.

I hope everyone enjoys the rest of the day. :)

Aw - I hope you feel more "up" soon, JoAnn. encourage.gif

Hey, everybody seems to be having a busy day and Wabbit got vape Mail from Wizard Labs and noticed that his little vaping Box was just crammed packed full, so I had to make an insert to organize my "stuff". As you can see, I am all ready to DIY again with some organization so I can see the labels on my flavors.

View attachment 229624When it is all packed in neatly, it sure does not look like much, but I think I have 85% of WL flavors now, even though I don't use most of them, I can try different recipes if I see them on line.

Very nice Rabbit. Remind me again, did you make that box?

What happened to your usual up and early to do gardening when the temp is tolerable?


Oh, yeah, if I get a summer cottage on Lake Michigan, you certainly can use it.

Like a position as cashier? A wide range of skills makes the best management person.

I got the package. Thanks. Now for the driptip mod.

The Indian stories were very interesting.

Yeah, what did happen to that? Well, the veggies had to be picked and I got it done:)

Love getting vapemail. Nice wooden box/organizer.

Thanks, Lizzie! Wow! Are you taking a day off, anytime soon?!? You amaze me every day with your posts! :)



:laugh:










Well, I hope everyone is having a good day. Mine started out pretty good. Went to Walmart on a shopping trip and got some necessites and some not so necessary things. We got home and hubby got a call from the Manager that interviewed him. No promotion for him. He's really upset, because they take advantage of him so often and he's a good employee. Only takes time off when he has to, like when I had my surgery. So sad. She did tell him not to give up hope and keep applying for management positions. I don't know if he will even try anymore, though. He's been passed over so many times. I told him to call the manager above his store manager, but he's not sure what to say until he knows who they've decided on. Many times they promote people that don't know but one area in the store, while he knows everything but cashier.

Anyway, I'm just wandering the internet while waiting for some vape mail. Someone is parked in front of our mailbox, though. When that happens the mail person usually drives past us. *sigh*

TTYL and have a great day! :)

Sorry to hear about the promotion for your Hubby not going through.

Day off? I don't think so. I just got the roofing nails from my neighbor and we are picking up the shingles to do the three shed roofs this weekend:) I do plan to take it easy tomorrow however.

Love the photo of your dad and the ship Tina.

Tina, that's a neat picture of your dad and his ship. I love old photos like that.

Here's a photo of cherry blossoms I took a few years ago. It's a neighbor's cherry tree. She was thinking of getting rid of it, and I begged her not to. It's still there.



Lizzie, are those flowers irises? It's sort of hard to see details in those little photos. Moving the grass uncovered the dog? Your island in the drive looks great!

Love the cherry tree blossoms. Looks like a double flowered variety.

There are Saskatoon grasses, pennestemons, asters, chocolate flowers, prarie coneflowers, verbena, alfalfa, roses and irises as well as some cat mint and a few other types of plants in that garden.

Thanks, SandySu! Those cherry blossems are beautiful! :laugh: @ uncovering Lizzie's dog!

Looks like things are progressing well, Lizzie! Keep up the good work!

Yes, I even uncovered the dog:) No, he was helping me by laying in the shade.

I understand this completely!




Wow Lizzie! That is just gorgeous!! You've made so much progress. You're amazing. Just sayin'.





Hope whoever parked in front of your mailbox moves. No one must interfere with the delivery of vapemail!!! :grr:

Yes, no one should mess with the vapemail!

Thanks RAven. I'm glad I found somewhere to put those grasses. I think it looks great.

I am sorry you are feeling a bit down, Joanne. Spanky, give your momma some hugs for us.


Thanks for the compiment, JoAnne.

Okay, my first multiquote masterpiece. Hope this works.

OMG!!! We got our own place!!! Woohoo

Hi JoAnn! Sorry you've been feeling down. I'm feeling it, today! I think a lot of it's from not getting much sleep. Hope you feel better soon! BTW, thank you! I sure hope something better does come his way. He's pretty down about, but he is talking on XBOX Live with a co-worker and is playing his video game. At least it's something to distract him from it.



I've heard that, awsum. My hubby has one, but he wanted a wrap with flames for it. I just ordered him one for his Vamo V2 and one for my iTaste MVP. Mine will be pink and purple with a butterfly on it! ;)

I'm freezing, so I'm off to find a sweatshirt before I see if I can transfer our vaping stuff into this tackle box. It looks smaller than I was thinking it would be.

Later, everyone, and have a great day!

I think I'll wait a while before considering a provari, maybe some time next year but I would like to add another vamo, especially for the price from Fast Tech. I've read some of the threads about the black chrome but I hope there's improvements in the finish for version 3.


Good afternoon volties! I'm finally up and running on my main home computer in my newly renovated office! I had a rats nest of wires and finally got it to look somewhat better and got everything up and running again.

JoAnn, I hope you're feeling better my friend! Sending good vibes!

Awsum, thanks for the dremel advice. It helped me out on my flooring project. And I did buy a full face shield to use especially when cutting metal! What a cool little tool!

Today is domestic chores. I had to get the wash started and now I have to clean the house. I organized most of the garage yesterday after making a huge dump run. Thankfully, a young man at the dump helped me to unload the uhaul I rented. My fingers are sore and swollen from all of this labor I've been doing! Just a little more in the garage after the house chores and I should be completely done, in time to enjoy the weekend.

Hope everyone is having a great day!

That has to be a great feeling knowing most of that hard work is done. Try to enjoy part of your vacation. :)

Aw - I hope you feel more "up" soon, JoAnn. View attachment 229632

Thanks for the well wishes guys! I can't stay down long having all of you as friends. Thanks so much! :)

Thank you too Lizzie! I'm not proficient with multi-quoting. :oops:

This happened some years ago, but I just heard about it. NBC's Dateline explored how easy it is to put deceptive advertising on TV in the form of an infomercial. It just goes to show that we shouldn't believe everything we hear, read, or see on TV.

Quote from Tail11: Very nice Rabbit. Remind me again, did you make that box?


No, it was from Hobby Lobby which has a store in our town. Funny thing, on line this "big" box had two little boxes nested into it for $17.00. When I went to the store, they were selling the boxes individually for $17.00 each. Retail rip-off, but it is a nicely made box and it holds lots of "stuff".

Wabbit

Be kind to your dentist, he has fillings too.

Cool! There's a Hobby Lobby here in town. I'll have to browse for something nice then!

Here ya go Lizzie. My new camera came in so the pictures show the actual color so to speak.

My I love me wall of some of my triathlon and marathoning days.



Whisper on the new Ikea footstool. I found faux sheep skins to give her some grip to jump and warmth. My computer where I talk to you! I still have some art work to buy, so the other walls will have something else besides me plastered on them. :)

Thanks Sandy. I've just been super busy over the past few months.How are things with you?

I'm doing OK. My arm, which I broke up near the shoulder last fall, is still not 100%, but it's getting better. I have physical therapy exercises to do every evening, which are a real bore. I rode Penny a couple of times in spring, then not for a while till just last Saturday. I was amazed my legs didn't ache. We took a very easy ride, though, except that Penny tripped and went down on her knees. I thought we might both fall, but she managed to get to her feet again. Whew! I wish she'd pay attention to her feet! There was a slim fallen tree, or maybe a branch, lying across the trail and she didn't step over it. It wasn't a formidable obstacle or anything, she was just daydreaming.
I had a birthday on Sunday, so all the previous week, people took me out to dinner, etc., and now the party's over, and I'm back to the same old humdrum. That's pretty much all the latest news.
