Glad to hear it Bristol.  We get plenty of snow too in the winter time so I feel your pain.  Actually this time around it looks like neither of us will feel that pain.  Take care.  Your doing great.

Thanks to all.  Your all very special to me.  Ah Jim, thanks.  To be honest I wrote the manuscript because there was no way I would be able to respond to all the newbies.  This is great that so many people have taken a stand.  Oh and Pupikat thank you much.  I only wish I could be looking at the oceans tide right now.  lol.  Karren and everyone else I love you all.  Thanks.

I may have blown it!

Hi Bristol,
 
Glad to hear that you kept with the fight even after the slip.  Not an easy thing to do.  I would just like to offer a different perspective on the quit meter.  It is your quit meter so I do believe you should do what's right for you; however, I just want to remind you of the tip I gave before.  You are already free.  Use the quit meter for celebritory purposes and not to define whether you are a success or not.  After all, you will torture yourself all your life if you let it become a "Wow, I've lasted 3 years now I must be free."  Just accept that you are free now and use the quit meter to go "Wow, I have quit for 30 days, I deserve somthing great.  Speaking of great your doing great.  Keep it up.  Take care.

What A Beautiful Day To Be A Non Smoker

And by beautiful day to be a non smoker I mean what a horrible day to be a smoker.  It's cold, I mean it's really friggin cold here today.  I know there are other places that are colder, like Antarctica perhaps.  The kind of day where it would be cold even if there were no wind, but there is wind, and a lot of it, and as I pass the smokers on my way into my workplace I can't help but think a couple thoughts.
 
1) I can't believe that I was ever that addicted that I would torture myself like that.
2) I just felt bad for them because I have been in their shoes.
 
For every veteren quitter and every new quitter remember these days and remember how I feel not even 5 months quit.  It's what I would imagine it would feel like if I escaped from prison after being there for years even after I had accepted that I may never leave.  Every day is a gift and all your really need to do is put the cigarettes down and accept that you are already free.

Happy Anniversary to me!!

Hey Frosty Congratulations!!!  What a great accomplishment.  I hope you have a terrific reward ready.

Mr Q

P.S - By definition a non smoker is someone that doesn't smoke.  Congratulations on a year of being a non smoker.
