[emoji45] Well, at least he has braggin' rights now. He's been to Texas!
Guess I have bragging rights. I lived in Lubbock for about 1 year. Left for a divorce. Happiness was Lubbock, TX in my rear view mirror!

Glad to see ya here! But as many have stated, don't feel bad about posts on the FP. We all do it until someone steers ua back.

@Debadoo , 10/10 for me. Loved when my birthday was 10/10/10. I even have a holiday in honor of my birthday this year :lol:;)

glad to see ya hun! But honestly, don't feel bad about posting on the other porch. I'm sure that wasn't even directed at you.
i can 'wander off topic' pretty easy,, then they would be coming after me......so to stay out of trouble i better leave that porch.. but its all good :) i feel like i know many of you,, you are my cyber friends who vape......and way out number the people in my life who actually vape :(

I'm so happy you got some relief! I'm getting started on my back issues. Got an rx for the anxiety day to day to keep me ok for routine things thst come upn & keeping the serax for nights h actual panic attacks. Scheduling MRI for next month for my back. Some of it is bone spursn but there is a narrowing between vertebrae in the spot that hurts.

My sister went to the Dr with me. Then had to go home & take Sara Pup to tje vet. They had to let her go & send her on her way. The cancer was progressing quickly & she wasn't eating.

My Mom's little sister passed this evening at 7:30. All the cousins stayed on Messenger with our cousins as their Mom began her journey yesterday. There are 13 of us h some one was on there with them the whole time. We were all there when she passed. It was an online waiting room full of nieces & nephews that loved her.

In other news, I also got my flue shot.

This has been a hard day on our family.

Oh {{{Kenna}}} sorry to hear the sad news. Perhaps they're keeping each other company in their new place.

Nice to see you've found another comfortable rocker on the back porch.

last week we took a road trip i really wanted to take...i have flown over many states, but i wanted to actually see them. now granted i should have wandered off the highway more..but we loved what we saw.

Houston to Memphis.. slightly hilly. then off to Jackson TN,,, to 'Casey Jones' for Sunday lunch... it was cute.. food was good. then up through Nashville to Kingston --my husband said if I can find a decent priced home he would move (yeah right).. Dead End bbq in Knoxville (loved that quirky neighborhood). we went through 2 tunnels and sat in road construction.

we took a short cut through North Carolina instead of our intended longer trip on our way to Myrtle Beach to visit with my bff I hadn't seen in 14 years because she got us an extra day for free at the condo we rented next to her on the beach. spent 4 days with her and her first mate.......that was a much needed visit. when we left we altered our path to visit Tybee Island (2 best beach island I have ever seen,,, Sanibel/Captiva Islands still have my heart).. then we got lost in Savannah---we agree we need to go back there. Georgia offered us fields of peach groves, pecan groves and solar panel farms (totally awesome!!!!),,, Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana all pretty much looked the same. google maps welcomed us to every state line except on our short cut through North Carolina.... she must have been on break haha.

it was good to get out and good to come home. we are quite boring people as Graceland etc.. just doesn't interest us.

we expected more 'Route 66' type stops/food.. but must have been on the wrong highway/roads.

we finally used google to 'find best bbq near me'.. and that is how we ended up there....it was pretty good.

Lubbock ain't too far from Dodge City. Got the hell out. Did leave behind a dear friend.

re-locating to this board :)

Nice to see you've found another comfortable rocker on the back porch.
Glad to see you moved to the BP. Much better for roaming through topics.

Was that your post that got moved? IDK why the porches have been kind of mingling a lot lately. I was surprised it hadn't happened before. I don't know why they singled out yours. Oh well no biggie. I do the same thing all the time too. Like I say the porches seem to be joined at the hip lately. Not much vape talk over there except about certain flavors being bad for you. Blah Blah it did make me cut my flavoring in half which was a good move for me saves me money and no more chest pain at night on a day of hard vaping but a little bit of a hassle cause I had to make a bottle of VGPG and nic to cut my flavoring cause I had 500ml already made up and I was surprised at the difference. Still good flavor and much easier on my lungs. It is amazing to me that these flavorings are so strong that I can use them at 1.25% and still get good flavor.

yeah we all do. Most folks visit both porches, but Tutu doesn't keep up with this one much. Most of us are just one big happy family, and now you're part of it. :) I rarely am around anyone in real life that vapes.

so,, did you pass by me and just honk and wave????? :)
Newp, he said he came down through Dallas. He was coming from Indiana. Was so great to meet him for a bit!

Oh that sounds like a wonderful trip. Have always wanted to visit Georgia, especially Savannah and Tybee Island. When my son graduated basic training in 04, I drove to Ft Leonardwood, MO to see him graduate........didn't come home for 5 weeks, and only came home then cuz I was runnin outta money lol But got to visit a lot of places, and spent a couple weeks with a dear friend in Chalmette, LA. That's just outside NOLA about 5-10 mins in St Bernard's parish. Glad I got to see NOLA before Katrina.

hope all of you east coast people are doing ok. i just asked my bff if she has heard anything about her home in Myrtle Beach,, she said no.. and that they got diverted to WV because Dennis' brother died. so now her plate is real full.
Sorry to hear about the death, and hope her home is ok.

You and me both but I was there for 7 years. "Lubbock in my rear view mirror" AND "All my exes live in texas"
Great to see you darlin! but we don't want yur exes either! hehehe

Was that your post that got moved?
No kenna moved one of mine over here because I'd asked how Sarah was doing. One of her sister's dogs that had cancer. So she moved it over here to answer me about that

i dont know if my posts where moved,, i didn't start on page 1 of that board so i didn't know about 'topic' rules. i did think i had upset someone but didn't really know what/how.-- no big deal now -i just wont wander over there.

my taste buds must be getting better too,,,i have been having to dilute my recipes a bit lately..i am not real picky so i make my normal mix and if it tastes a bit strong i will dilute it 25%+/- with neat.

my nebox tends to be 90% nic-neat and 10% recipe..its nice and mellow,, pallet cleanser :)

my son just left FT Leonardwood he was just transferred to California. --but i dont think he is at the San Diego base where he did his bootcamp. we went to MO a couple of years ago to see him.. MO is pretty too.
