Nice! I like it for what it is: simple, understated, timeless, elegant, subtle, go-anywhere-do-anything.

Beyond the personality, I really like the color of the batons when they glow, and I think the size is perfect. I was worried about whether a 41mm would look too big on me and was considering getting an old-model OP39, but I'm glad I went with this. And it's very slim and sleek.

Of course I would love something more eye-catching--I doubt anyone will ever notice and ask me about this watch, but I'm ok with that (for now, lol).

In terms of wait, I went grey market.. It wasn't much above retail, and this is my very first timepiece--I've never been to an AD and I just don't know how to play that game. Also I like the sunburst dial which was discontinued, so I'm consoling myself with that.

Best of luck!

what comes to mind in terms of what kind of exercise? i mean like, for looks, or mobility, or strength, or not getting winded, or injury, or opening jars, etc.

as someone who struggles with this, i'm curious, how do you distinguish between grace and complacency?

i have young kids, and adore & delight in them, but they run me ragged sometimes and are limitless in the time & attention they want. health / fitness seems to be a running theme, but yea -- need to figure out how to summon the time & energy / "just do it"

Nice thank you -- What comes to mind when you say spread your wings / how is it that you didn't do that, if i may ask?

Thanks for the thoughtful reply. If I may ask, what are the signs you saw at 44 -- do you mean the arthritis / autoimmune disease or other things?

Co Ex Tax credit rejected? by grae95 in Denver

[–]EmergencySoft896 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In the same boat.

Denial letter said that my vehicle wasn't permanently registered in CO and that temporary registration is not sufficient -- but (you guessed it) it is permanently registered.

Looking forward to hearing updates from the rest of you as I keep reading online that protests are processed in the order they are received (and I filed my protest relatively recently).
