Congrats on kickin' the butts, Daisy. Thank you for the great original post. I really enjoyed reading it. Best of luck, and keep us 'posted'! 
Ladypixel - cherry limeade and raspberry was actually good, lol!
Mud Stuffin - i have envy, lol!
We were spending about $60 a month the way i have it figured. Our main smoke before this was smoker's choice little peach cigars that came in packs like smokes and were $15 a carton. We'd go through 3-4 of those, plus a couple of real packs so I figure it was about 60-80 a month. In addition to the dr's telling me to quit - that amount was more than we realized we had been spending. i have a place already picked out to do my mixing - my dad gave me an old big long folding table like you see at buffets and such, and i can close the door to work on things then open it again
i admit i have posted on the PIF board at another ecig site and i'm sure i will here too eventually, just so i can pass on the green apple (for example) and try something different and perhaps find people who have some bits and parts they don't need anymore that may want some flavor i'm willing to part with, lol! i plan on selling my bauway kit (what a mistake) here in town on a local online site that lets people sell anything and everything, lol! i just wish the ego C had been out when i did this 6 weeks ago - i never would have even started with what i did - hindsight, don't we all love it?
Toodles!

Thanks Filibuster! Congrats on your 17 days! Can you taste stuff again? i think that was why so many of the liquids i tried when i first switched over seemed gross - i couldn't taste them properly but now i can and i'm loving it!
Btw - I'm hyper and post a lot - no worries, lol!
Toodles! daisy
Thanks for more welcomes!
Bushmasterar15, i don't usually tell people this, but i have a friend whose husband had a childhood grudge against giraffes (you got me???) and so he went to Africa, found one that was a nuisance on a reserve (no use in finding one that was cute and cuddly or anything), shot it with a desert eagle 50 cal - and only the desert eagle, he wouldn't do it with a rifle...50 caliber hand gun for those who don't know - BIG...then had it taxidermied so that the neck was on one wall and the head went around the corner.
Wow, i know freaky people

Omagosh! i miss-counted my weeks! It's been *7* weeks and 3 days - not 6 - woohoo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sorry, you may now return to your regularly scheduled programming 
Welcome to ECF, Daisygirlie! Nice avatar! Audrey's so classy..Thinking about your budget, I just wanted to suggest yet ANOTHER alternative. There's a great website called ECBlend.com that sells amazingly cheap juice! Don't know if the pricing compares to DIY juice but here's ECBlend's pricing:
5 ml - $2.50
15 ml - $5.95
30 ml - $8.99
50 ml - $14.65
125 ml! - $35.00 I really liked their Cinnamon Peach and Orange Ripple, but their selection is truly mind-boggling! Probably the thing I love best about vaping...all the choices...God, you could shop until your fingers fell off, and you'd just scratch the surface!
Anyway, thanks for the 'likes' on my Boge/E-Cig Arsenal reviews! You're a sister Ohioan who's into photography!
Any tips you could offer before I finally 'pull the trigger' on this Fujifilm FinePix F500EXR Digital Camera I've had my eye on for months? Any photography tips you could help me with would be really appreciated! I live like five minutes walking from Lake Erie and there are so many incredible shots I really want to try shooting...especially night shots! But the more research I do on DLR, the more confused I get!
Congratulations on your SEVEN (NOT six!) weeks of staying offa those freakin' analogs. Those things consumed 31 years of my life and I don't even want a guess at how much of my money..really happy for you! I'm a Boge girl now, but still drip on my old eG0 Mega atty's from time to time!
Happy to have you here, hon..ECF really is a great place. Just about everybody I've met here is helpful, kind and has a slightly twisted, off-the-beaten-path outlook...you'll fit right in!

I'll definitely have to check them out! I just loaded up at Good Prophets in the last week - all their 10 mls were $.99 - I bought 40 bottles, LOL!!!
The camera looks great. The only (minor) issue is that almost all non-DSLR cameras seem to have LCD only shooting - no little eyepiece to look through. If you've taken pictures with your cellphone, you'll understand what I mean. I have a Nikon D50 DSLR that still has the standard viewfinder as well, and a small but great sanyo for everyday wandering that has the LCD only. My problem with it is that it has issues figuring out what you're trying to shoot sometimes - and even with hand stabilization the image will focus in and out on its own occasionally (but not always and it's not a reason to not buy it, it's just a small annoyance) - my fiance's similar camera does it as well. You just have to get used to holding the camera kinda in front of you so you're looking at the image of the photo you want to take, in front of the picture you're taking. With a viewfinder, you're simply looking at the scene you're shooting - I have no idea if that makes sense, lol! Again, *not* a reason to skip the camera - it looks really nice and Fuji makes great cameras with great service if you ever need it!
The camera's wide angle lens and panorama features are nice as well...and you can't beat the fps speed - you'd get some great action shots, especially at dusk when the fish start hopping or the bats come out to feed!
It has "intelligent flash" which means it knows when, where and how to fire off. It'll have a pre-flash, that's critical for night photos because you'll know whether or not you'll get the shot or if you need to change something around. Usually, with all the new point & shoots there's also a "night" option and that really helps as well! Also in your favor is that it's not the newest shiniest one out there, it's been out several months (almost a year I think?) so if there were any glitches in the beginning, they've been worked out by now
Don't let the huge lists of bells & whistles for all the cameras confuse you. When it comes down to it, anything last year and newer is great in point & shoot cameras (lots of changes about 18 months ago with megapixals and HD video capture) and most will do the same things. Some just do them better than others, and Fuji is an outstanding brand, as I already mentioned. Also - price the camera on Ebay - I got my 14mp, hd video Sanyo for $33 and it has some pretty cool features (not as nice as the Fuji but not as new either, lol). You can sometimes score big if you have the patience to wait and watch auctions, or just even check the buy it now prices (I don't have great patience, I did a buy it now, but it was still a great price!)hurricanegirl said:

Rave already broke me in, ROFL! She's the one that sent me to the Leo board. I'm mostly over in the over 55 forum even though I'm underage
Message me anytime about camera stuff - it's great fun for me and I love talking about it!
