Survived the Storms

Wow - you must be proud of yourself for staying strong. Keep it up! I've been watching your postings (and Mr. Magic and LadyCigevictor's too) since I also started Chantix around the same time. I got a little off track due to panic and didn't actually quit till day 10, but I'm here now. (I have a more detailed post in introduce yourself forum). Reading of your success has been an inspiration for me. May I make a suggestion of a new song for the Magic Ship? Cher's "Strong Enough". "Now I'm strong enough to live without you Strong enough, now I've quit crying long enough, now I'm strong enough to know - you've got to go" [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 1/29/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 4 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 53 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $16.32 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 0 [B]Hrs:[/B] 9 [B]Mins:[/B] 47 [B]Seconds:[/B] 49

Rainy, Where are you exactly? How did you know to go into the closet in the middle of the night? My parents are in Vero Beach, which I believe is Indian River county which has a tornado warning, and my brother and sister are in WPB. My brother has not replied to my email so perhaps he is without power? Do you think they are ok? I have no idea where lady lake is. I'm so glad you are safe. You must have been scared to death.

Thanks Rainy. That helps until I can make some phone calls at lunchtime. This thread should be ok. You made it through a HUGE TRIGGER! :) [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 1/16/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 17 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 349 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $47.6 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 1 [B]Hrs:[/B] 16 [B]Mins:[/B] 47 [B]Seconds:[/B] 17

Wow, I hadn't heard about the storms yet. Glad that you are okay Rainie. If you didn't smoke through that, you can get through anything.

Rainie, I'da thunk it!!!! Just saw this thread after I posted on the Magic Ship. Whew, I'm glad you're ok and you should be very, very proud of yourself for being so strong....that had to be terrifying. I will pray there are no more casualties.

Wow, Rainie: What an awful night you must have had! Frightening situation, but SO glad you and yours are all ok. The video they've been showing is scary -- whole areas just flattened! I cannot even imagine what that's like -- our storms are just never that violent here in the northwest. Mother Nature can be such a force to reckon with. And so can you, Rainie! You got through that terrible night without a smoke! That means you are truly now a non-smoker! How about that?!! Keep the faith, my friend.

Glad you and your family are ok Rainie. I didn't call my boyfriend today cause I had to work. When I came home I saw the news about the tornado in Florida and got scared. I called my boyfriend right away but he was not in that area thank God. Good for you that you didn't smoke. Be careful for the tornado's.
