    Teaching my son to drive was stressful. His first time driving we went to the high school parking lot and ended up with a flat tire his first time driving. o_O Good luck! I won’t mention the recent news article of a girl being taught by her Dad who went forward instead of backwards and she ran over him and he died. How awful! Just be sure to stand on the side of the vehicle. :blink:
    I was always in the vehicle while teaching my kids to drive.

    Took too much advantage of two sunny days in a row, mowed AND whacked yesterday, so today may be in recovery. Poor little weed whacker is tired and ran out of gas. :lol:

    Me too...ready and willing to do a quick break or grab the steering wheel. :lol: It was even more stressful when he started driving on the interstate to college everyday. I made him follow me at first but now he’s a pro.

    Both my boys were great. They had already been driving off-road. One of my daughters was good and the other was terrible in keeping her eyes on the road. I gave up and gave the job to her father.

    Well my wife started off teaching her to drive, but hasn't had time lately, so I took over, she isn't bad, as already done the hard part with my wife, the only real problem she has right now, is she tends to move her hands when she looks over her shoulder to change lanes, so we start heading to the curb, but she is getting there, nearly at the stage to take her test now.

    This serpent elevate came with a coily tool that made it so easy to cut the coil legs. So easy. I just watched a mike vapes video...my wick is too long so after this tank I’m going to put in a new one. Although it’s hitting great. Love the coily tool.

    I think I’ve tried most all my steeped stuff with the exception of 1-2. That’s not counting several NET mixes I have’t tried yet.

    I’ve got one more of pop’s nets to try and a few stixx I haven’t gotten around to.

    Now I’m getting downright silly. I made a strawberries and cream recipe with every strawberry and every cream I have in my stash. I may mix it later.

    I did something similar once. I made a stone with 10 different lemonade flavors.

    Do it! My all the chocolates stone turned out great I mean not for vaping but adding to stuff, you ever need to add "Strawberries and cream" you will be set. Unless it tastes good, in which case you will also be set.

    I woke up and limped to the bathroom like the little old lady I will some day become but nothing is badly broken I just hurt all over. Walmart, definitely I think today. Plus job prep and application sigh.

    I can't mix more I have so many vaping and seeping it's gonna be a little while.... I did my first custard I can't wait to try it but I have to. IDK still considering adding stuff to the mango but it is too soon.... I don't want to OVERDO it either....

    Brings back scary memories of taking my daughters. Good luck.

    I, shockingly enough am a SUPER awesome driving instructor. Every mistake I have already made (well, not running over a parent by mistake, that has to suck but no parent would be foolish enough to be OUTSIDE the car and near me in any fashion they have seen me back up.... I kind of think that was the PARENT's fault honestly I have never heard of a parent instructing from outside the car.

    I am a cruel taskmistress. I think everyone should learn to drive stick first because (I realize this is getting less likely and my next care may well HAVE to be an automatic) but what if you gotta take someone to the hospital and all you have is a stick. So but yeah I am pretty much bomb proof no matter what you do or don't do and I just calmly say, "When I do that... this is what I do." The boy was easy but like, I had been letting him drive (on this long private driveway to a farm for ever, the last time, it was like I taught him parallel parking.

    Anyway, so I took him to a parking lot and my first instruction is always, "Stall the car. But pay attention. Notice exactly where it stalls. Then the kid did it and freaked out and was like, "OMG OMG OMG" and I was like, "You are no going to break this car. I have done that thousands of times, probably. Stall it again, and let the clutch out slowly, and I want you to notice where you foot is when it stalls." So that is the reference point and then you go through making the car move, and how there is this sort of kinesthetic (I think driving is anyway) where as the car is GONNA stall you press the accelerator and it's this sort of reverse motion and then you go though grinding the gear (no kid, you are not going to break this car, I have done that hundreds of times) and steering and braking and ALL that and I yell ZERO times.

    I was so proud because when the kid came to visit I let him drive to Sierra Vista in my car and we had this hailstorm and my husband was yelling at my kid and my kid was just getting TENSE (I don't blame him it was like "The bad part" where you could plunge off a cliff, and I jus said calmly to the kid, "You remember when we did hydroplaning right? This is the same, just a little more unpleasant. So, remember, if you feel you are losing traction, you remember what that feels like, right? Don't worry just downshift, coast a tiny bit then brake, gently." My skills are madness.

    It is 100% for driving (for me) if you cannot do, teach.

    I just loaded a tank with the ry4 cream. If you like rich and sweet then you might give it a try. It’s one I found on FB.

    I'm glad that works for you. I don't bother looking on the recipe sites anymore.

    Took a few extra minutes to pull the flavors but no big deal. I line up all my flavors with the caps off and start putting them all in one syringe and they were all 1 ml and then squirt them all in the bottle. Now that I’ve organized my flavors it’s pretty easy.
