Just popped in to check in on u ;) Girl u really are good at the venting part, lol.
The serenity prayer really helps me get through times like what you're going through. GOD, grant me the serenity to ACCEPT the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things that I can, AND THE WISDOM TO KNOW THE DIFFERENCE :)
So the next time you feel like you just can't take it and you're going to explode, no matter where u are just close your eyes, take a deep breath and say the prayer cuz it really really helps :) For real, lol.
No matter what don't lite up...
Keep on keepin on...

We have to "change"/grow up emotionally into a different person cuz "The same person will smoke again". And you should be so very proud of yourself for doing all the extremely hard work to change. WOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
What a beautiful, wonderful post! I love it :) xoxo

WOOHOOOOOOOOO CUDDLES!!! Just wanted to tell u that one thing that's really helped me to stay quit is remembering how good it feels to still be smoke-free after I make it through a "temporary" rough time. Sometime it seems sooooo unbearable but then sheese I'm soooooo happy when I made it through and I can still smell the conditioner in my hair! And it does smell really good,,,so fresh and clean! LOL My friend got into my car the other night and reeked so badly and I just had to say something. I wasn't trying to hurt her feelings. She quit one time for 12 yrs. so she knows what it's like to be a non-smoker. It just erks me cuz she's such a sweetheart and has children. And I just want to see her be around for their weddings and grandkids etc.
Anyhow, I'm really proud of you ms. cuddles! Keep it up :)

I promised myself a long time ago that if I ever felt like or thought I was going to give in,,,run down to 7-11, get a pack and start stinking again that I would come in here 1st and ask for help. I've kept that promise to myself and I'm still smoke-free.
This is a thread for all who want to make the same promise to yourself. I thought it might be a good idea to put it in writing. It's kinda like the weekend promise thread but just basically to confirm the promise to everyone in here that I & you WILL come in here and ask for help before giving up. If you still give up after you've come in here and have read the reply's to your call for help, then so be it.
[color=Red]I promise to come to this site, ask for help and read the replys before I give up :) [/color]
I just thought of this b/c sometimes I come in here and get so afraid that I'm going to find that someone I care about is going to post about a slip or relapse. And then also b/c it's worked for me so it might help someone else.

Hi Lady,
Take time to say a prayer for yourself :) GOD please watch over our Lady! She is so special to us and needs to know how much we all care about her. Just like she cares about her Dad and wants him to quit smoking, we care that she takes it easy on herself and rewards herself for quitting smoking and helping all of us to stay quit. She's a gr8 example to us all. Please guide and direct her thinking, actions and words that she speaks, especially to her Dad and please give her the knowledge of your will to be done and the power to carry that out. Please watch over her Dad too and please help him to quit smoking for good. Please send the knowledge his way to help him to quit. Amen :)
Hang in there Lady :) Everything happens for a reason...
No matter what don't lite up...
Keep on keepin on...
