Just got my new TOY. Thank you DV!
Hi Tina, I JUST downloaded the app for Tapatalk for Windows yesterday. I am still figuring out how to post there.
My phone is a Lumia, because hubby works with MS and Nokia, so I'm not allowed anything else![]()
I'm afraid it wasn't me who had the shoulder surgery, but I think it might have been Stoney (correct me if I am mistaken, Stoney.) Don't worry, though, I can totally understand the mixup. You can tell us apart by his posts being consistently informative or hilarious and mine being off topic or bad jokes!
Good afternoon DV! Happy Hump Day
Did you get the LED and laser option? I need the LED and laser option for that Light Saber mod...oh and a sound effects package would top it all off
Seriously though, congrats! And +1 for a review when you get a chance
How do you like the Lumia? It's supposed to be a nice phone
I am the one with the shoulder surgery from May, but I disagree with your characterization of our posts. I think we all do a fine posting job here on this thread
I'm going to have to go do a little research about the VTR now, KalebK. Is this what you have chosen to replace the eVic and Vamo, or are you still researching?
good afternoon peoples! Haven't had much chance to get in here, but the bathroom is nearing completion, will be soooo glad when it's finally over. I had to do a little countertop revision around the cutout for the sink, to accommodate the old sink, then it turns out I needed to get a new one anyway, blech...but happy ending to that~~we went to the Habitat for Humanity ReStore here, and I got an almost new Kohler sink for $15!! Plus it had an orange tag, and evidently today all the orange tags were 20% off. What's better is that its a self rimming sink, so I don't have to use that old chrome hudee ring, easier to keep clean and doesn't look so "70's". Omigosh that store is amazing, if you have one in your city, and are looking to make some home improvements, go there and take a look around! They have an vast collection of doors, windows, flooring, carpet, furniture~~ among other things, and everything is so cheap and all the money they make is donated to Habitat for Humanity. Oh, they also do tear downs, if you are donating your old cabinets or whatever, they will come in and remove it for you, the whole place is run by volunteers. Can't go wrong there.
I must say, I like the touch screen on my Lumia, but Windows is far behind Apple and Android for variety of apps. I think that margin will grow smaller over time, as Microsoft is such a major player and will attract more developers.
The next Lumia release will be a cross between a tablet and a smartphone, not quite as big as a tablet but bigger than a smartphone. I like it for portability, but can see how it might be too big for some people. It looks like it will have a great camera though. Think that will be rolling out early next year. Good review of it in the WSJ over the weekend:

I have one of those stores not too far from me Zooker. And yes, they gots bargains galore in there !
I also pick things up at our Humane Society thrift store alot. It's non profit and the money feeds/vet bills for the animals so I go there when I can
Most of those kinds of stores around me are for good causes. Also have one that pays the Battered Women & Children, another does charity and burn victims that have lost homes in fire. I'd rather give to those places then go to big box stores when I can for certain stuff. I proud of you !

It went in my favor today! I was supposed to be there 6 hours and after less than 3 the physical therapist that was evaluating me came in and said it's pretty clear that I couldn't do that exam and she thought I should come back and do the one hour one and she's going to call my primary care practitioner and my disability attorney and ask them if that works for them. I'd say that works in favor of disability getting approved it just sucks that I've gone from being able to heft 120 lbs dogs around to this inability to even do some very basic marching in place.

Hey Zooker, I think Cnew wants to make sure you pick an ambitious mosaic projectI say give the one in the middle a shot, complete with mosaic pedestal sink!
Umm, yeahhhhhNo, I don't think so, lol. However, I am thinking those pink roses would look lovely in your bathroom Stoney, what day is good for you?![]()
That thing is MASSIVE!!!
... What's better is that its a self rimming sink...

They call it a "phablet".

This too will pass Zooker. Just think....in a couple of weeks you'll have a nice sparkling new bathroom and the rest will be a distant memoryok, so I'm totally freaked out tonight. Today we bought a new exhaust fan for the bathroom, and it wouldn't fit the existing cutout in the ceiling, and since its so heavy it's supposed to be attached to the joists...gah.....so my husband had to cut a big hole in the ceiling in order to get it up there, omg the bathroom...I've been in there 3 times with the shopvac cleaning insulation off the floor, there's sheetrock dust EVERY-FREAKIN-WHERE. Now the thing is finally installed, but tomorrow (oh dear LORD I hope it's tomorrow) he has to patch up the hole with sheetrock, tape it, mud it...you know the drill...then he said he needed to spray texture up there, and I was all like NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO don't spray anything in thereseriously am so uncomfortable with the mess in there right now. I can't bear to look.
I checked the VTR out a little bit, and it looks pretty nice...
Yes Stoneface, I think the VTR is what I will be getting. It just looks awesome! iTaste VTR - Best Electronic Cigarette | E Cigarette Manufacturer| Innokin Of course, I'll wait for pbusardo or grimmgreen to do a review on it before I buy, but I've heard Innokin makes awesome products so I'm excited!!!
....
Have a good night everyone. God bless!![]()
Amen to that!!!No pink roses!I worked very hard to cover all the pink I could

)
I checked the VTR out a little bit, and it looks pretty niceIt does seem a little weird that it needs that big adapter for eGo devices instead of a "regular" 510-eGo adapter. The holster could be handy, though...you could clip it to your chair so that you don't drop it

Good evening DVers. You all have been very chatty this afternoon and I'm too tired and lazy to multiquote everyone so I'm gonna do this all from memory! Lol
Ree, I hope everything works out with your disability! I know how frustrating that can be. I'm supposed to be getting a new wheelchair next month, and was told by my rep that I might have to pay $2000 out of pocket because I don't need a fancy lightweight chair, but disability will be glad to pay for one of those huge ugly hospital wheelchairs that weighs like 40lbs. Stupid Obama!!!

Tina, sorry you are dealing with credit card fraud! Been there, done that, it sucks!
Zooker, relax, have a vape, the bathroom will be all done before you know it and its gonna look GREAT!!!
Lastly, but DEFINATELY not least, android rocks!!!!! I love my Galaxy S3!!!
Have a good night everyone. God bless!![]()

:banghead: argh if other people would just recognize that I'm right all the time things would be so much better! LOL :screwy:
You are too funny, Ree!!!
By the way, your doctor remark made me think of this:
