Hi there!

[nietheo]

New to the whole vaping thing, feel a little awkward about it since I'm a middle aged woman and my experiences to date with vape shops suggests that's not the usual customer, but I'm loving it. Currently researching the whole diy juice thing because it really appeals to me as someone who loves to bake and come up with recipes. As a bonus I think this is the first xmas I haven't been glued to the cookie jar as the flavors are really keeping my sweet tooth occupied!

Welcome to the forum. Glad you are here. I began vaping at 62, far from middle age. All the cool kids think I'm okay.

Welcome to ecf! I'm 52. You're never too old to vape.

Hello from another newbie oldie.

 

[Baditude]

I'll be 65 this February, and I will have been smoke-free for 7 years, thanks to vaping. As you can see, there's a lot of us "older" folks who vape. It's never too late to quit smoking and to replace it with vape.

Welcome, from another middle-aged woman. You're in good company on ECF.

DIY is definitely worth a try, especially if you like baking. You can pick up tricks and tips and even recipes and also ask any questions you may have in our DIY subforum.

Welcome and glad you joined.
I see you found the DIY section. I don't usually recommend any newbie to start DIY before 6 months of vaping, or so, for the simple reason that most folks are primarily occupied with nailing down their preferred method/equipment to vape. However, you sound like a pro when it comes to patients, so here is the advanced "must" reads for DIY:

The above just starts to scratch the surface.

Thanks! I'm a total dork whenever I get into something new, so I've researching so much. Going to start simple just to play around. I have a sense of what I like so far from playing around with my husband's collection. Sure that may change, but I will just learn and grow as I go.

Agreed.
The so-called "Cool Kids" don't know that the bill of a baseball cap is supposed to shade their eyes. They also can't seem to figure out how to pull their pants up. Why would I care what they think?

Welcome to the forum from another middle aged woman!!! Seems to be a contingent of us on ECF! Glad you found us. Vaping and finding this forum has been the best thing to happen to me in quite a longtime.

I research everything ad nauseaum myself so I get it lol! If you have a question odds are that someone here will have the correct answer!

And the comradery (sp?) is the best part!
