Older Folks and Vaping Front Porch - Part 5

[DavidOck]

You use 18650s or have big tanks?

Yep, single 18650. Most of the tanks I use are KFL's at (supposedly) 4.5 mls. At my power levels, a new battery won't be below half when the tank's empty. Fill tank and pop in a fresh battery, so that lighten's the load on the battery, theoretically extending the service life. And gives me peace of mind with both tank and battery "full."

Are we planning a party today? I hit my 6 years smoke free day today and I am pretty sure Mike did too. Seems like we also have a couple more, Semi maybe? and since it seems sometimers has come on me I can't remember who else.

Congratulations to us all

Actually tomorrow is 'may date'. Starting 'today' 6 years ago I finally went 24 hours without a smoke. But I 'mark' my quit date as of tomorrow. And I haven't had 1 dang puff on a cig since, not even a taste.

Congrats to you and Semi- ... we done did it and continue to do it ... vape on!

I have to admit that I did try one smoke last year. I was just curious. I am no longer curious I had actually forgotten HOW to smoke one of those things and the taste was horrid. 2 small puffs was enough to convince me as long as I have something to vape I will never go back to smoking. I have made sure that I have enough of everything to be sure I never run out of something to vape.

I love celebrating vaperversaries. I just love it! And I know that it's kind of a silly word we've coined to refer to our quit dates. But, being a bit silly, it feels like a happy word. Joyous even. Vaperversaries, in my mind, should always be remembered & celebrated with the same feelings that we celebrate any other joyful occasion. The birth of a child, an adoption, a graduation, a promotion, a marriage, sometimes a divorce. It's an achievement. A goal has been successfully reached. It marks a welcome back to life. A new day. A new start. A big change. From that date forward everything is different. Something that occupied a significant portion of our time & efforts for many years is just gone. A chunk of budget has been freed. Everything smells & tastes different. Our surroundings smell better. People don't gag when we approach. Our closets & cars don't smell musty. It's a new world! It's something a never smoker will never experience. It's as if a disfiguring growth has miraculously disappeared without a trace it was ever there. Quitting is a glorious achievement & it's a delight to celebrate it! So Happy Vaperversaries!

Happy Vapeaversary to all our celebrants! My 5 years is coming Dec 15! 5 years? I thought I would never quit, but 1 vape and I was done. Yes, I tried a puff or two that first year, but yeck!!! Couldn't do it.

I agree Kenna, a new lease on life is certainly something to celebrate!

Congratulations all of you! I got you guys a cake but ate it before I came on last night and then face-planted early evening so never did get here. Now all I got is a happy dance for you guys.

If you guys hadn't been dumb enough ( ) to start smoking and wise enough to quit, the rest of us never would have had the absolute delight to meet you. NEVER REVERT, I promise we won't.

You guys have made quite the accomplishment, I hope you're all proud of yourselves, I am proud of you.

No kidding. I tried it twice out of curiosity years ago. Yep, second time was even worse than the first. Killed any curiosity I had.

Sure! I'll take that wacky pup! I wish I could get all the pups I sit for together in one place. They are all so funny. I'd have to get another lap or two.

I would bet that if a survey was done - you would find a good many had to try one just to see somewhere down the road after quitting - I mean you did it for years - you had to see what were you missing. And at least for me I had a hard time believing I did that for years and even defended it...
