Morning, mixers,

Rain continues, although said to be scattered. Uh huh.

Well, it's over a week since I bought vape products, I'm proud of myself who has held myself back, every day is a big battle, want to buy, want to buy.
Do you others have it just as bad / tough to go through the days?

No, not any more :) As mentioned, some of us did that a few years back. Now, well stocked, it's just the occasional shiny :)

Please keep Barb in your thoughts.

And you as well, Katmar! You do need to also take care of yourself, or you'll be no use to Barb.

Hello Wonderful Mixers....just checking in to say hey. Things here have been pretty rough. We have made the decision to place my best friend in a home, as it is getting harder to care for her, and I'm not in the greatest health, although, I am GRATEFUL for the health I DO have. I have never been sadder or more down watching her fade away and, now, having to place her for 24 hour care. Her will is strong, but her body is so weak. She is eating next to nothing now and sleeps a lot, but tries to get out of bed herself. The home is about 20 minutes away from me (that is if they accept her, but I see no reason why they wouldn't, at this point). Home hospice has been a help, but NOT enough. They are never here very long and we are left to do the heavy work AND watch our loved one decline. I do not ever want to be the one to decide the end of life stage for another. I wish she could make the decision herself. Either way, I feel horrible. Horrible that I can't keep her as I promised, and horrible that I can't handle watching this process. I feel I've failed her in some way, but I know she wouldn't think so. I've been having bradycardia that needs checked, but haven't been able to leave. This is something new, and it may be a benign type, or may need pacemaker and/or meds. Please keep Barb in your thoughts. She is so special and precious to me and so many others. Take care and I hope EVERYONE is doing well here.
Kat, I know this has been pretty rough on You, Marsha and Barb. As hard as this is for You and Marsha, I do think you are doing the right thing for Barb. I know Barb is very grateful, thankful and appreciative for the loving care you two have provided.

Take care of yourself Kat and please get that bradycardia checked out and taken care of.

Barb, Marsha and You are in my thoughts. :wub:

I got my Kroma-z from Innokin today and I got a charger and batteries from 18650batteries. They are for the Coolfire which hasn't shipped yet, I think Innokin really got slammed with orders during that Easter sale.

I'm also trying to organize a little by putting a device I'm not using and all of it's coils, pods, whatever into a zip-lock bag. Before The Purge I had stuff spread out everywhere so I'm trying to avoid that here. Even if I'm using a device the box and coils go in a bag. :D

What charger did you get? I've been using an XTAR VP2 for years and the screen is fading, which is apparently a common thing. I have a second one in reserve which is still fine but I was going to get another just in case and they are out of production. I'm out of touch with what's good these days.

I think you should keep everything in a metal briefcase handcuffed to your wrist. Safer.

Good morning ladies and gentlemen,
a round at the chiropractor, bought groceries, bought juice & coil's, painted the baseboard, ie half of the room.
I take a break for the rest of the day, the packages floating in the air as far as I know. The only thing that comes later is a NiteCore UMS-4.

If you spend some time in the Shinyitis Support Group you will find all sorts of folks who are more than happy to help you spend some money.

These days I'm mostly hunting for a few rare items.

Tor, I am diagnosing you with having a very serious case of Shinyitis. :D
Ummmm, I'm not sure if it's that bad ..... yet.
Before I managed to shop and put everything I bought into use, lately it has fallen in so much that I have more than enough to sort and put in system.

What rare things are you looking for?

Kathy, you did everything you could and more. You did a lot for Barb, and you did everything you could.
Do not be hard on yourself, be proud of yourself.

Or. He could get a piece of paper and write a list of his vape gear down the left hand side. Then check the bathroom and write a list of hair care products down the right hand side. Write Hmmm at the bottom and leave it lying around somewhere.

    Somewhere between here and there
    You've counted your flavors.

    But... have you counted all the mods, tanks and RBA's you have? ;) :D

    I didn't really count my flavors. I just entered them into my flavor list on ELR over the years and it told me how many.

    I wouldn't say I've counted the mods and tanks. I did do a pretty big reorganization and got some stuff out of cardboard boxes and into plastic storage bins a few weeks ago. I do have a solid list of what's in those six containers as well as the remaining cardboard boxes. I have two larger tubs that need to be inventoried. Everything I have organized so far is on a hand written list as well as in a document I created on my laptop. I honestly doubt I'll ever count all the tanks. I have a few different storage containers with just tanks in them that I've bought and used over the years.

    I got the Efest Luc V2 charger. Also bought some Molicel batteries, but the Coolfire only takes one 18650 so I just got a 2 bay charger.
