I'm hoping you are feeling better too Gonna. I hate to see you stressed because you always DESTRESS me. Keep up the good fight and don't EVER lose that sense of humour! (By the well - I just checked hubby's breath - much better than cat) You are doing great and we are with you (esp on the tough days) [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 9/11/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 8 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 178 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $40 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 0 [B]Hrs:[/B] 20 [B]Mins:[/B] 23 [B]Seconds:[/B] 56

Me too! Wish I could get that monkey off my shoulder and run over him with the car. (Ooops...there's that mean and cranky windy talking again) I keep reminding myself that I wasn't really calm before I quit. I kept planning when I was going to get to have my next cigarette. I couldn't relax and enjoy smoke-free events....avoided my friends that didn't smoke. After ball games, my nephews always invite us back for a pop. I always decline because 2 hours was long enough to go without smoking. (My goodness - I had less time to get those 20 smokes in before bed!!) I have missed out on so much by smoking. I want to enjoy the ball game and the visit after. Gotta get those smokes out of my life and out of my mind!

Gonna, kids will stress you out every time. Mine are always in need of money!!! And they never want to help around the house. Hope you are feeling better now. Those stressful situations are a real test, and quite truthfully, they suck! Be strong, as I know you are, and keep on posting, as I know you will!

I have been posting for about 20 minutes. I came here because I was really feeling miserable and cranky. After spending time reading the posts and just being here, I feel better! I actually do! I tell ya, I absolutely love this place. Ah well...time to walk the beagles now. Cheers, Jan

...and I keep tuning that voice out. The one that rationalizes the reasons for smoking. How much better you'll feel, how calm you'll be, oh...and just think, you'll be able to take off those extra pounds much easier. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I will NOT listen! I'll make it through this. There's no way smoking can be glamourized in my eyes, not when my sister's husband died at 50 years old from lung cancer. And yes, he was a heavy smoker! Time for a good round of deep breathing and a bottle of ice water. Thanks for letting me vent.

gonna he loves you to pieces anyway, that's his way of showing it, he has to be strong and act like a man no holding mom by the hand that's not manly. I remember going to the mall with my son he would walk behind me or in front not too close in case he met friends he wanted them to think he was on his own certainly not with his mom, how dorky is that? walking with mom come on :)Marie [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 6/13/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 99 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 1,493 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $396 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 13 [B]Hrs:[/B] 2 [B]Mins:[/B] 57 [B]Seconds:[/B] 27
