How was the turkish harsh? The TH? I like it but it is like inhaling air.

It wasn't the TH, Peng, it was the flavor. It was like breathing somebody else's campfire smoke. I'm sure if it was the first one I'd tried after my old Marlboro Lights, I'd have thought nothing of it. But as I mentioned a few posts ago, my first non-disposable vape ever was Tribeca, and once you go Tribe you never go back. Now even Midnight Apple is almost too smoky for my taste.

Of course, opinions are like elbows (or whatever,) and that's just one of mine.

It tastes exactly like a camel blue to me.

And no, I liked Tribeca at first but now it isn't so good. The flavors don't mix well to me. It taste like I'm drinking vanilla extract with a caramel candy in my mouth.

What a day. Thought my little monster broke his collar bone for a little while. He's OK just sore and fussy now. Geez these 2 will be the death of me. He is 3 and has already been in the er 3 times for various injuries. Thankfully didn't end up going today.

This mama is sooooo tired

Oh my I remember those times. Nobody can truly prepare you for toddlers. I was washing dishes one day and my 3 year old says "Look at me mommy" (never good). I look down the hall towards the play room and my son is in the hall ON THE CEILING hands & feet against the walls creeping down the hall like spiderman but facing the floor!!! OMG even if someone had told me I wouldn't have believed toddlers could do that!!

They're good for that.. Gotta love the 5 billion heart attacks a month. As much as I'm looking forward to summer, my two clutzy kids have me buying absolutely everything I can for a huge first aid kit.

On the plus side my dad is an er/ trauma nurse so I always call him first. "Do I need to take them in to the hospital / Dr or not?" Bet he hates seeing my name come up on caller ID ;)

So AngiBe? Why is it that you aren't wanting a little one?

Mainly what Evie said..hit it on the nail. Not sure. I didn't play w/baby dolls as kid either. Barbies ya cuz they were "grown ups" w/cool outfits and shoes.

Like I said, it's such a selfless thing to do and I guess I'm a bit selfish in that respect cuz I babysat A LOT from 11 yrs old up. (Yes, 11 yrs old LOLOL)

I do volunteer for kids now and nieces and nephews to spoil. Good enough for me. ;)

I like that answer. My wife and I get that a lot. "When are you guys gonna have babies," "Any grandkids for us yet," "Breed, breed, breed! You're not fulfilling your genetic imperative!"

We just want to be the best parents we can be to our dogs and cats and live our lives without that additional stress. We both volunteer with CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates) helping kids in the Texas foster care system, though we don't have nieces/nephews yet. My CASA kid is a great 15-yr old girl of two ....-head parents both doing jail time for production and distribution, my wife's is an 11-yr old Autistic boy whose parents abandoned him by a supermarket dumpster. When he was 8. He doesn't even remember their names. With kids like that in such need of adult guidance and compassion, it feels selfish to have our own. We love our CASA kids, don't get me wrong, but when they get forever homes we can help two more, then two more after that. I find this more fulfilling than blindly contributing to the surplus population.

Sorry, end rant.

What you are doing is a wonderful thing, an d should not be considered a "rant"
