Hey Kayla Actually today is the big 40. But not to worry I,m glad to see you doing something with your daughter it,s far more important than worrying about this old f---- quit date. It,s times she,ll remember for ever. My landlady says I,m travelling 3 bricks short of a full load when I tell her about all my girl friends and likes to remind me I have a daughter and a son the same age as most of the people I,m talking to.. But I can dream can,t I ???? ;p If I quit smoking for the same number of years I smoked I,ll be 118 so 40 days does,nt seem very significant some how .... ;) [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 3/21/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 39 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 713 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $390 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 9 [B]Hrs:[/B] 8 [B]Mins:[/B] 48 [B]Seconds:[/B] 39

Hi Bear you didn't lose me. I tend to just read sometimes when things aren't going well. I don't go too far. I just don't want to bore people with my problems and it's things I can fix. So many life adjustments and thorns along the road. Boyfriend is leaving today and I'm off looking at a house to buy. I hate renting and miss my gardening as well my 2 cats that my brother is keeping for me until I buy a home. My landlord won't allow pets. I did quit using the patch and it's been 4 days without it. The first 2 days were a b**ch which is kind of why I didn't write. Tomorrow is your big 40!!! I'm really happy for you and I know it's had it's bumpy times but you've held strong It doesn't bother me when you growl though it's cute!!! Tutti and changing have done a great job keeping an eye on you and they are both doing great on their quit as well. They don't seem like the kind of people who scare easily and would let you know if you did something to offend them. Great job ladies!!! Fun news though... my daughter and I did a canoe race and had such a great time. We almost flipped the canoe a few times and took on some water and managed to keep it afloat. We came in last and enjoyed it!!! The current was fast due to all the rain in NY and it was the first time for both of us in a canoe. I can't wait til it gets warmer to do more of it. I'll talk to you later and I still love my trucking sweetie. I'll be posting tomorrow on your big 40 :) [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 3/16/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 44 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 1,556 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $484 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 4 [B]Hrs:[/B] 5 [B]Mins:[/B] 16 [B]Seconds:[/B] 14

Hey Bear, Don't panic, I just signed into the site myself today. Changing and I quit the same month so we sign into the February Quitter's thread every time we're on the site. She hasn't posted at all today on the February quitter's thread. It wasn't anything you've said. She just hasn't been on the site today. Silly bear!! LOL I hope you're doing okay tonight. I just now signed in for the first time today myself so I imagine you're not on the site. Once I saw your post, I wanted to reply so you'd have it first thing in the morning. Yee Haw!! You're coming up on 40 HUGE DAYS!!! Bear, that's great. You just keep hanging in there and fighting the good fight. Okay? I'm having a few cravings tonight so I thought I'd read some posts and try to get my mind off of them. They're not too bad but annoying as hell.

Hi There! Of course I haven't found a new boyfriend, I'm a one-Bear kinda gal! I'm sorry that I've been posting less often, work has been way too busy...it should start getting better within a week or two. I hope you're taking good care of Frip and yourself.

I know this may seem silly to some of you but I get inspiration from music. One of the pieces that realy fires me is by Pink Floyd called "Learning To Fly" to me it,s kinda what I,m trying to do right now smoke free. If you can catch the video thats even better you know how to find it don,t you ??? ;p
