Good Morning and Chit Chat Thread

[kittypie]

Good morning everyone! Sorry kitty, I've been having to take valuim at night to sleep, due to severe leg cramping in my sleep...you know, the kind that make you wake up & shoot out of bed...so some mornings I wake up feeling like a zombie for the first few hours. That is why I missed my super early "morning" to you all.

Sure hope everyone has the best day they can tho...and hot here too...96 today & 100 tomorrow!

Yes, I do know! OUCH! Poor ty! I assume you've tried all the home remedies...low sodium v8, bananas, an unwrapped bar of Ivory soap under your sheets at the foot of the bed......maybe Swer will have some good remedies!

Waiting for the mailman to bring my VV supplies and...my new Ego Twist!

Yeah usually for cramps the most common cause is simple deficiency. Calcium supplements help alot - oftentimes making the problem dissappear for good. Acetic acid found in vinegar and mustard is also great for a more immediate fix (this is why athletes use pickle juice for cramps on the field). I woud usually go with some apple cider vinegar and maybe follow up with a calcium supplement over next few days...even something like "Tums" will work. Potassium can be the issue too but both remedies have it.

Wow I have never heard of the ivory soap one. I'll have to pass that on to my neighbor thank you. Also yogart and calcium supplement's are suppose to help. Sometimes also when ya don't drink enough water that will happen too. If you are taking a water pill these will also cause the leg cramps. I used to be a in home caregiver so you find all kinds of things to help the person or persons you are helping. Plus us caregiver's would get together and trade what was helping us help our client or get some help to what others were or might do in a situation.

Ty I hope you find some relief soon hon.

Swer, I LOVE the Twist. I have two now. All dreams I ever had of getting one of the big boy variables have evaporated in the vapor of my Twists.

 

[Swer3397]

That's what I am counting on. And can you believe, mail took 3 days when ordering first class - I have two packages out for delivery both of them first class mail. Yet it took over a week when I used priority 2 weeks ago.

I would also like to say IF something I say offends someone PLEASE say something to me as I have told you I didn't get a good education so I have a hard time saying things in the correct manner. Also when writing something even leaving a word out can make it sound completely different then what it was tended to mean. Also know I am a mother hen and I do not mean to tell you what to do. It's just I'm a very sentimental person and when I like someone I don't like to see them hurt or anything else. I just want a peaceful and enjoyable life for all. Especially the people I call my friends. Also I love to joke and have fun as you can maybe tell. This also helps me to not be such a worrywart about the things going on with me. My dad always tells me I worry about things that shouldn't be worried about. I have also been told I'm a OVER thinker. Anyway I thought I would just put that out there.

Thank you for listening. Have a great day!!!

No worries....everyone here is pretty laid back It's going to be extremely hot here this week as well and not much chance for rain. Hopefully we do get some rain the crops are not looking very well. Everyone had a great day...and keep cool...

I hear ya on the mail thing. You know what bothers me is the dumb package's I get go to the post office 2hrs away and then come to me. Than others don't. Like the tanks I got one time they went to the other PO, then one time they came strait from their PO to mine. It's silly I tell ya.

Thank you!! For the reply that's nice to hear!! So anyway do I have to call my friends again to help me do a rain dance for you lol.

Got my Twisty! Charging it now then gonna try some flavors out. Currently making friends with Vanilla Mint after we had some relationship issues (i.e. I ran out of him). Got my Mango Mint Julep also. It is interesting but not sure if it's for me. I will reserve judgement after trying it out on Mister Twister.

Hi All, I'm new to the forum but a long time lurker and just spent the weekend with my second VV order and really want to share my excitement. I hope it's OK to do it here?
I've now had ten juices from VV and love eight, like one and one is not my taste but..something different happened with one in my last order. I can only describe it by asking if you all remember back when you smoked stinkies and you really wanted one and finally got a chance to light up and take that first drag and then..exhale..release...aahhh....? Well, as much as I enjoy my favourite flavours that doesn't really happen to me with vaping until ....ta-da! Coffee Monkey!! OMG! I don't know what's different about it but I can be vaping any flavour and then pick up the Coffee Monkey and the same thing happens. This wonderful release and ...aahhh. Every single time! It only happens with this juice.
Thank you, thank you, thank you Annette! Simple pleasures make life so good!

 

[Swer3397]

Only coffee flavor I ever tried was from another vendor and it still sits in my cabinet. Tastes awful. I may try the VV flavor though when I get a chance. Welcome to non-lurking!

 

[Swer3397]

Btw Kitty, love the Twist! Thanks for turning me on to it. 3.8 is where i'm sitting at, how about you?

And Loup, glad you found your magic flavor. I'm thinking Vanilla Mint is mine. BCM is a close second, but sometimes a little heavy for me as an all-day vape.

 

[kittypie]

Swer, I usually sit at 3.8 - 4.0, though I am enjoying my Swiss Almond all the way down at 3.2.

Hi Lou! Woo hoo, the REALLY happy moments of vaping I love it! All this talk of the Coffee Monkey has me this close () to trying something with banana. (I have vaped NOBODY'S banana since I started vaping! I don't know why, I love bananas! )

Yeah I am the same really. I turned it way up to max to test it and my god did it burn the flavor. I find myself sitting around 3.6-3-8 which is from what I read very close to the KGO. Still it is nice to be able to change the voltage although I am still muddy on why I would want to add more voltage to a specific OHM. Yes, I need to go back and re-read Vayne's detailed explanations that he wrote here. It's like I get it and then FORGET it after a few days, lol.

As for Nannas, I too love the flavors. I tried Bannana Nut from VV and it is too cakey for my liking. I am considering just trying straight nanna, but idk. Ideally I want at least one go-to nanna e-liquid.

Thanks for all the advice everyone, but trust me I have tried all things mentioned and then some! Thought they were happening because of the steroid inhaler I was using, so stopped that and now as long as I take the Valuim I can make it thru most nights with no cramps....but I also use the Spirvia inhaler (have COPD ), so that could possibly be another part of the problem....can't stop that one too tho, or I can't breath! Have a great doctor working with me tho, so I am sure we will find a solution, just a matter of time. Getting old just kind of stinks...LOL!!

Hope everyone has a wonderful evening!!

 

[kittypie]

Ugh, when you're so busy, working hard, and TIRED, it's terrible to have something interfere with blessed sleep. I'm glad the Valium is helping.

Hey V8, we're not easily offended around here, so let 'er rip, sunshine

 

[LouP]

Woo hoo you too Kitty! and thanks for the welcome swer. Perhaps I shouldn't have said "lurking" now that I think of it; perusing would be better. Kitty, it was your descriptions of butter cream mint that convinced me to order from Annette in the first place. Thank you! But I am unsure of this forum stuff so please let me know if I'm doing something I shouldn't? I just got so excited and my son's face now glazes over as soon as I start saying anything about vaping! I had to share!

 

[kittypie]

LOL, you're doing fine! Believe me, I totally understand the enthusiasm about Annette's juices. Sometimes my sister and I just sit here and don't say anything, we're busy vaping, going "mmmMMMMM" "MMMMmmmmMMM" "yuMMMMMMM" and then we pass out. So yeah, I get it.

Raise for kitty! Woo Hoo!
