    Believe me, I know exactly what you mean. When I need to make appointments, I drive to the office (small town) to do it. I have a list of people I can hear clearly on the phone. Right now, it has two names on it.
    Right now I'm just cringing from the number of calls I have to make to change my address.

    Trophies | E-Cigarette Forum

    However, once Ya' reach a certain level (823 Points for most members/1,323 for some special members) . . . :( :( :(

    BTW: There is also - ECF Member "Ratings" : https://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/members/

    Might as well check out the Sub-tabs and the names in the list while your there too - Ya' will see a few people you know listed there . . . Like a very "Notable Member" who got 135,830 post / 352,700 Positive Ratings / 1,323 Trophy Points from "New Hampshire" . . .

    Good morning to anyone who is up, or is still up. Looks like it's going to be a beautiful day.

    So, I didn't water the garden because of all the weather alerts for severe storms with tons of rain coming. We got a lot of rumblings and some rain for about 5 minutes. Should have followed my gut and watered.

    Random Thought of the Day

    I don't know why, since it's really not that true, August always feels like it's the Gateway to Fall .. I think it's got something to do with the name, August .. it just seems to fit with Autumn, at least in my Brain ..

    It's really not that true, since, generally, August in these parts can be the hottest month of the year ..

    At the same time, it feels, to me anyway, like we turn a corner when August comes around .. school starts to get geared up, Labor Day is not far away, the year is over the halfway point ..

    Everything known to Man is, of course, on-line ::

    "Not only did the Roman Senate name a month after Augustus, but it decided that since Julius's month, July, had 31 days, Augustus's month should equal it: under the Julian calendar, the months alternated evenly between 30 and 31 days (with the exception of February), which made August 30 days long. So, instead of August having a mere 30 days, it was lengthened to 31, preventing anyone from claiming that Emperor Augustus was saddled with an inferior month.

    To accommodate this change two other calendrical adjustments were necessary:

    • The extra day needed to inflate the importance of August was taken from February, which originally had 29 days (30 in a leap year), and was now reduced to 28 days (29 in a leap year).
    • Since the months evenly alternated between 30 and 31 days, adding the extra day to August meant that July, August, and September would all have 31 days. So to avoid three long months in a row, the lengths of the last four months were switched around, giving us 30 days in September, April, June, and November."

    Good morning everyone (or whatever time of day it is where you are).

    So the grandkids might be coming out, aged 1.5 and 4 years of age. Their mother thinks it would be grand if we 1) took the RV and went to the river, where we would rent a houseboat for a week 2) Go to Disneyland 3) Teach them to ride a motorcycle.

    I say no to all of the above. Disneyland is a maybe, but really I'd save that until the little one is a bit older. Then she can actually go on the teacup ride or something instead of being pushed around in a stroller all day after being in a car 5 hours to get there. As to going to the river and renting a boat, buying one would be less expensive! And teaching them to ride a motorcycle? Has she lost her mind? Our bikes are Harleys and the smallest dirt bike is a 250.

    I'm not saying one word. I'm going to let her think about what she is asking and hope she figures it out herself. Then we will take them to the family cabin at the lake which they have never been to (a 3 hour drive), rent a boat for a day (half the price at the river and one day is enough), and take them to the petting zoo. The rest of the time they can run around the large fenced yard full of nice trees.

    That was interesting stuff about the calendar.

    I hope everyone has a wonderful day!

    Good afternoon everyone. Like others have already stated, it is the start of a new month. That time when I have to sit down and pay bills so I can know how much money I have left to live on. So glad that I have plenty of VG, PG, and Nicotine for making my own ejuice. That was a very worthwhile investment.
