Not exactly an epiphany, but I realized the only way I can participate in this thread is to go to the last page, subtract 10 pages, and read to the end. It's that or just go back to lurking in the shadows.

I do this too on some days...sometimes I come back to literally 1,000 posts, and it would take me all night to catch up. :)

I am enthused about the Itaste vv v3 with the mini protank 2. 'Cept they don't last very long. I'm enjoying the cin. roll/sticky bun/butter pecan mix one of you kind folks suggested. The itaste vv is the coolest little battery I've found. I want more! More colors please!

And here's a tip - the moment you sign out they start talking about you. :vapor:

not sure what you are paying for your v3s, but for a few pennies more you can snag one of these:

Innokin iTaste MVP V2.0 - 101 Vape

if you have a charger already, v3s are cheap here. they have all 4 colors, atm:

Joye eGo Rechargeable Batteries

Thanks! I like the form factor of the vv's for work. They stay nicely in my shirt pocket where ego's etc. keep falling on the ground when I bend over. I bend over a lot. I got mine from 101, and have them on wish list at desert vapes. Tried KGO vv's, spinners, before finding these. An MVP seems more suited to the coffee table. Maybe when my SID's die I'll get one.

Just got done doing the final airing and caps on of my baby juices.
The peanut butter smells like peanut butter medicine, LOL.
I must say though that the USA tobacco smells devine.
Can't wait to try it. Heard good things.

I caved in and tried my Butter Scotch today ........ now I've got my eye on that Blue Moo ......... I know I should wait ....... but ....

You have such a great attitude Sam. I don't want to embarrass you or anything, but you really do. You've got to enjoy every minute. I can't believe how quickly time goes by. I'm more acutely aware of it as we get within a couple years of retiring. I haven't worked for 11 years, because the very wonderful man I married said, "you've worked since you were 13. take a break. do your art. hang out on the beach." kind of a dream come true. Or maybe he some how knew the next 11 years would be a series of surgeries for his new bride! lol out loud (snicker) He used to say I should have come with a warranty but I think he's used to it now. When he read the MRI report last night he said, "yep, surgery". I actually researched everything listed on the report, and after having had 4 surgeries on the other shoulder, I've had to become pretty educated on all things shoulder related. I am in for a rotator cuff repair at the very least, plus a decompression and bursectomy, and some work on the biceps tendon. Or, since the arthritis has already mucked up the humerus, which I do not find humerous, it may just go straight to another full joint replacement. These things happen in pairs. I accept that. I've had good results with the right shoulder, and only 9 months into the 12-18 month recovery. But thanks herds for the well wish'n. I totally appreciate it. sorry....medical crap post...folks hate that stuff!

On topic....let's see....what am I vaping today. In my ego passthrough I have a mix of Shenanigans, coffee liquor and graham cracker...very nice indeed. In the one Protank2 it's yellow cake (tastes just like it), the other PT2 is strawberry shortcake with a little vanilla custard, and the IBTanked halfling is Rainbow Sherbert. One of these days I really need to start the DIY. Bottles from MBV are piling up all over the place. Addictive personality here!!

thanks Roonies! walking is easier than or just as easy as breathing for me. it's easier than standing still, standing still is real hard for me, actually. as a kid, i used to just leave home, point north and walk. i'd just keep walking. as i got older, on snow days and weekends, i i'd visit friends that lived 7 or 8 miles away. when i worked back home, i'd walk 5 to 7 miles to work, standing in the kitchen for 9 or 10 hours, then walk back home. nowadays, even if my legs hurt so much i can barely stand, i can still walk. granted, the old ticker is getting a bit of a workout now, but i'm loving the walks. as soon as i can get my ssdi, i wanna move somewhere that the climate is nice enough that i can walk 2,3 or 4 times a day. the only thing is, it has to be flat. i can't do hills.

rather than seeing being sick as a bad thing, i look forward to being able to soak up some nature and enjoy myself for a while. i spent the last 8 years petrified that i wouldn't be able to work. now that it's here, i can stop worrying about it. i did my share and i always did over and above. i have plenty of study materials and plausibly a book or 2 to write. this just might be the coolest time of my life. if i don't do the walking, it might be the shortest. it seems like i was prepared for this since i was little. why look a gift horse in the mouth!

i hope your shoulder trauma recedes and it all works out much better than you are now anticipating!

thanks Roonies. it isn't often someone gets a disease that seems "tailor made' for them. if everything goes well tomorrow, i get to spend time doing the stuff i love to do. just gotta find a climate i can handle with some flat land and trees and i get to be a kid all over again! my "therapy" is free! hell, i got it made! i didn't miss anything. my oldest grandson is in high school. my god-daughter is in college and if i head back to NH, she wants to come with me.

i cringe when i see or read about folks with back pain, neck pain and torn muscles like yours. that would be unbearable for me. i would not like having to spend that much time in and out of hospitals and rehab joints. that just adds frustration, anxiety and anger to the situation. i don't know how you do it! i'd be miserable! when i meet a doctor for the first time, they can't even tell i'm sick. they might think i'm a little crazy, but that ain't so wrong.

i hope things go well for you!

to whoever was looking for "must haves", i can't remember if it was Doug or "Noodles":
