Of course there are snacks, how could there not be, with this bunch? We have a vat of popcorn, a barrell of sunflower seeds, a tubfull of twizzlers, & whatever else anybody brings. Of course, there are always nozzly things & the puching bag. Come on over, everybody!

(I need Mercy at my house!!!!) I got a huge list of things needing done at the house, but never seem to have the time to do them.....when I do have a few spare moments, I look intently at the list and then need to nap! I try to stay busy in public places where you can't smoke---like the mall! The credit cards are in my husband's name, and I have made a solemn oath to visit every Saturday when he's committed to debters prison! ;) You are lookin' really good, Jan!

Way to go Jan, That is all you can do. You need time on your side. Stay busy. That is a good thing. Reading and watching movies takes up time which helps. Make a list of things you have put off doing. Sewing...cleaning out the medicine cabinet....defrost the freezer.....clean the garage. It is theraputic. You can do this....(and you are) Mercy [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B]1/21/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 135 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 2,700 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $603.45 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 17 [B]Hrs:[/B] 19 [B]Mins:[/B] 57 [B]Seconds:[/B] 18

Hi Jan, We quit on the same day! AND, I am a huge Law and Order fan. My favorite is Criminal Intent! I am on my umptenth quit. Mentally, I have tried to get to the place where smoking is NOT an option. It helps, It is my mantra. There is so many positive aspects of NOT smoking. I can not think of ONE positive thing about smoking. That is what we need to dwell on, The positives of being free from this addiction. Have a great smoke free day. new me [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B]5/26/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 10 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 240 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $50.00 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 1 [B]Hrs:[/B] 10 [B]Mins:[/B] 49 [B]Seconds:[/B] 56

Hi Jan, keeping busy really helps me a lot - especially things where my hands are occupied.
