That's good that you aren't tired all the time, 5card. For me, it's lights out, until the alarm wakes me in the morning. Oh yeah and a few bathroom breaks during the night, but I go right back to sleep.
This and that and Chat

The older guy I used to work with said he only slept 5 hours a night but he was 65. All the ones that worked my shift 4 am to 1 pm said the older you get the less sleep you need. If I don't get at least 7 I'm no good the next day.
Ahhhhhh!!! BLT's too Jerry? Yum!
5c, I go through a period like that every once in awhile, but I'm worthless on brain power if I don't get my 7-8 hours a night. And I nap in the afternoons! I call it a nap, sometimes I don't fall asleep, but it's mainly a good excuse for a break from Katie.
How's the pool holding up Tracy? I got a little too much sun on my face today.

Hey Bov!
The pool is awesome!! I told Miss Maddie that she's going to turn her Mama into shoe leather if she keeps wanting to spend everyday in the pool. LOL! She's a little fish, just like I was when young. I do like the changes they've made in this new line. The liner is nicer looking, the filter is more like a "real" pools and does a better job. Come on over girl, the water is perfect!!!
Going to bed now though, will chat tomorrow!
P.S.- ElDee, I am letting the Snake Oil steep still, although it's quite difficult. Smells amazing!!! I meant to mention the thank you for your answer earlier but somehow it got away from me. I have a mini blem in the cart, along with batts, extended cap, a blem flower cap, and a tank ring. (aka beauty ring) Blue LED this time. I haven't pulled the trigger yet, but it's loaded!!!

CL a re-buildable dripping atty is a fine performer..I only built down to .6 ohms with a Trident clone...Dripping thru the tip was pretty much a recipe for disaster...Pop the cap and fill 'er up...Vape and repeat..Great vape and likely the best available...Just gotta work for it...Great for when you lounging but not so great on the go...
Guilty food pleasure??? Salt n Vinegar or Wasabi Almonds...Still sticking tight on a diet...239 down to 202....
Finally all the parts ordered for the Ranger have arrived...Now I gotta suck it up and head too the junkyard and pull the clutch and brake pedals outta a donor...100* and I gotta dive in a junker...for an hour???? Gotta break some eggs to make a cake...a cake that I can't eat...
I've pocket carried my Pro since day one...It's a durable pv and likely one of the heaviest for it's size due to stainless construction...El Dee loves stainless though...IMO the ultimate combo would include the one I have and a cut down version...Should be easier on the pocket carry and just smaller all around...I kept buying other rigs when I really wanted the one I ordered today...
The KayFun??? I always wrap my coils around a 5/64ths drill bit...The knitting yarn fits perfectly...I've got the sterile cotton as well but always tried to use too much...I'll just stick with the yarn as it works pretty dang good...10 wraps on the 5/64ths comes out to 1.5 ohms every time and the ProVari loves 1.5...I usually fire it at 3.7~3.9 volts and everything just flies right there...Once a week I burn the coil off and add new wick...A coil goes for around a month...Airflow is adjustable on the KF and I run mine dead wide open...100 bucks is the best money I've spent vaping...Soon I'll have two...I like them that much...
Hopefully 5 is sawing logs up in the great North West...

Good morning, 5c, everyone...
I do hope you got some sleep? For it being overrated at times, it does have its benefits Haha, yes...do the extra reps for the orange indulgence...I am a fitness gurus nightmare though I have been trying to eat clean(er) these past few weeks, a fun and beneficial challenge to stay away from processed foods and the like. Gratz to you, Dee, for your losses, most impressive as is your dedication to the eating lifestyle. I actually saw the Salt 'n Vinegar and Wasabi almonds at CVS yesterday and nearly put the Wasabi in my basket. Hindsight says I should have—they sound yum.
OOOooo, DARK chocolate and mint, a fave of mine as are the CheezIts of any white or sharp variety. And chocolate cake (or yellow, even better) with chocolate frosting? A no-brainer...we would have quite a party amongst us with our pleasures A BLT, too? I had my first tomato of the season yesterday...it was no less than divine.
I have tried the cotton ball wick and cannot get past the cotton taste. A hang-up of mine, I should try to work through it...a B&M around here sells the cotton wicking/yarn? but I have become so accustomed to the silica, stuck in my ways...time to stretch a bit, methinks. And the Kayfun keeps calling my name ever since Dee and Wharf first brought up. Et tu, Tracy? We can learn together, perhaps It still surprises me that I have a B&M here, three actually. They aren't much to look at and when I go to visit, I feel an old and very experienced vaper amongst them, from a different world.
Do you microcoil it, Dee? That is my preference on the IGO-L but it seemed a bitter fail on the tanks.
Alas, no wascally wabbit sighting (or smelling, thank goodness)—woe is me. 'Tis and will remain a mystery.
Best wishes for a good day to each of you, I am out to do my yardwork before the mercury touches 90+

Good morning Pokey and 5c!
How sweet of you to post the good morning salutations in Fran's absence! It truly has become how I differentiate between what was said last night vs this morning. I hope you got some sleep?
Pokey we could have a party indeed with all of our faves!! Yummm! Happy you are not seeing / smelling any lost little rabbits. Alls well that ends well!! Good luck with the yard work. I hope you get it all done before the temps rise. Madison wants to go swimming again today! We've had a 2 day break now so I guess we will be in the pool at some point today. The humidity has broken with a bit of rain we had 2 days ago, so that's nice but not real sure if it'll be warm enough to swim comfortably yet.
At my B&M I sometimes feel the same way. There are certain things that they for sure know more about, but then we will get talking and they start asking me a bunch of questions and all of a sudden I feel like the expert! hahaha The owner has been vaping a long time like us, but the employees do not have near the time under their belts. The owner is hardly ever there, he has 3 locations now.
ElDee, You know I just copied your rebuilding instructions into my phone for future reference!!! You have not steered me wrong yet!!! hahaha

Jerry, getting up in the night to use the restroom, I don't like the sound of that have you had your prostrate checked lately? Maybe I am overly conscious because it runs in my family.
Good Morning everyone !
This X 100!! ^^^^^
A little needle, a little blood test (PSA), a little(?) finger—think of it as a little trip on the wild side to potentially further/improve your existence on this side...
Heading back out, sigh. I am not into this yard thing today.

Morning all
Pull that trigger Tracy! Like you said...Dee's never steered us wrong!
Pokey, I sympathize on the yard work...I have the dreaded hedges to do today. Ladder, electric trimmer that only works half the time, and a gazillion feet of electric cord to drag around. At least the cord is orange, so I'll think of you while it follows me
Moon, that pic made me laugh, but it's no laughing matter if the prostate is not in good working order. Great advice for all the men-folk.
5c, hope you slept...awesome wake up pic!

Pretty sure Cheeze Its are RJR/Nabisco...If so that's a double triple no no....Definitely highly processed as well....
Pokey my coils are micros....I boil the Wally World yarn twice in RO water...No cotton taste afterwards and I too had a strong cotton taste when using the sterile cotton..The Dragon's Blood will leave the coil so gunky it actually catches fire on a dry burn...Thinking about crafting a small tool for coil building...A small scrap of wood with a screw to hold one end of the wire...Then an indented area with the drill bit just drilled in a couple inches below...It would ease the grip the bit and one end of the wire in one hand thingy...My most useful coil building tool is the magnified lamp...The KayFun is way easier to get the coil set up on...After a couple of times it becomes easy....Note that a small handheld torch, a roll of kanthal, hemostats or long tweezers and a couple other small items are required..I'm looking for a set of long tweezers now...the kind that open when squeezed...Those dang things get triple hot when heating the coil...My big hemos work but hold heat big time as well...
Through this vaping journey one thing has been a constant...The ProV...The KayFun strengthened this combo...It's world class IMO...Initially it's one of the most expensive but as time goes by that kinda equals out...ProV sells AW....You will never go wrong with an AW...They look cheap but kick all other batteries to the curb...They just keep on charging and performing...A spool of wire and a roll of knitting yarn will last indefinitely...These days that's a good thing...When the new rig arrives I'll throw my Aspires and I Clears to my cousin and his son...They've been sitting idle a while now...Hoping the ProV tank ring works as the SvoeMesto I use now...If not I'll get another Svoemesto...The Pro Has channels for airflow and the KF feeds from the side not the bottom..Adjustable airflow means you can set it and forget it...I find the draw through anything else way to tight for my liking now....A loose draw and huge vapor is how I roll...I've been on the KF since January and have only replaced the fill port o ring last week...All else has been golden....

I can't even get close to crackers any more. Too much salt. I remember my cheetos addiction that ended last yr. Everywhere I went people would check my fingers and say YUP you been eating your cheetos. The cheeto stain is gone forever. Poor Chester will have to do without me. Too much sodium in everything we eat. That's why I also quit drinking OJ by the gallon. I miss that.
Moonlit, I have been that way all of my life. Small bladder, maybe, drink too much liquid before bedtime, maybe. I don't really know what the reason is, but it runs in the family, so maybe we all have tiny bladders.Jerry, getting up in the night to use the restroom, I don't like the sound of that have you had your prostrate checked lately?

Good Morning everyone !
Good morning Peeps. I have yard work to do today, but it's a cool day with low humidity, so it will be a nice day for working outdoors.
I agree 110% 5....Last week I stole a BoJangles french fry from a friend...It was like wagging your tongue in the ocean...I spit it out...Everything I eat now is unprocessed....Encounter a little processed and your azz will get torn outta the frame...OJ?? I know there are some brands that are supposedly additive free...IDK any safe brand names...I do know a good juicer is in my future and it's highly likely that a good portion of my diet will become liquid...Just too many healthful benefits to be overlooked...A juicer and a good supplier of bulk oranges and I'm betting your OJ would shine....
On the prostate cancer and such...These details will remain sketchy at best...5 years back I was doing some reading from the Journel of the AMA...Research from the 30s/40s just after a certain plant became illegal....Indication was that an extract from this plant cured virtually all types of cancer...Cancer cells are protected by a protein shell...The extracted oils were found to break down this shell and kill the cancer cells....Now this plant is listed as a Schedule 1 narcotic....No items in Schedule 1 can be studied in the lab legally...There is a reason for that....I dug and dug into the subject and found this oil had many, many uses...preventative and cure...As life played out a dear friend's wife was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and told to get her affairs in order...As I said SKETCHY...Some country boys survive better than others...We do what we gotta do...Now 15 months after diagnosis and 11 months past her dead date her cancer is in remission...Even though on oral chemo she goes to the zoo and cuts grass with a push mower all the while getting better every day....Myself...Maybe I had a roll in it and maybe I didn't...
And now it's off to buy Greenies...I've got an addict on my hands...Sure hope I don't find RJR on the box!!!!!

**GULP!** Looks like I'd better watch a youtube vid or two. Didn't know I'd need a torch!!!
LOL @ what I bolded!!! lmao A salt addict I am.
Forgot about that RJR/Nabisco boycott!! As for the paragraph prior to the Greenies, that's awesome that your friend beat it, and kudos for your possible roll, or not, in it!!! hahah I just love happy endings!
I thought that they had to remove my prostrate, to examine it and then sew it back into place !!!!!
They can stick a needle into my arm and suck out a gallon of blood and it doesn't bother me at all. But a pin ..... in a finger.
