Hi Sara, (do you own 4 cows? are you a cow rights advocate? is your kitchen decorated with cows?) He he. A BIG CONGRATULATIONS ON BEING SMOKE FREE FOR 5 ENTIRE 24 HOUR PERIODS~! You have quit smoking. Are you using any NRT or medications? Whatever, you have not had a cig for 5 days, so you know that quitting will not kill you; in opposition to smoking, which will. It is really important for your hubby to stay quit. It is not easy, but using self talk to keep reminding yourself how wonderful it is to not be a slave to nicotine any longer really helps when the cravings hit. Remember that smoking is a choice. We choose NOT to smoke because we want to be free of this horrible addiction, this poison smoke. remember NOPE; not one puff ever. You all can do it. Be happy and thankful that you are quitting!

Sue,
I also have noticed a big improvement in the appearance of my skin. It actually had a slight grey/yellowish cast. Now, my cheeks have a pink cast to them. It really is amazing. Are you over the 30 day slump?

Hi Sue,
Does DH get to do photography for a LIVING? I did sports teams, weddings, trade shows, etc. for a while, but with the big digital photo shops around that can have all 500 photos back in 3 days, it is hard to compete. It's like photography factory work, anyway. So, now I do a straight job and photography as a hobby.
I have not had any problems with the quitzits, thank goodness. My main problem is my brain. I think about cigs so much. It is irritating. I really feel ,though, that now I have the committment to not have "just one" (yeah, right, sure, just one). I know where it will lead...back to the merry go round of cravings and addiction. Time will pass and we will all feel better.
