You are here

Two days smoke free....+

and I am becoming a cleaning freak!  So some good is coming from this!!!!!!  Imagine not smoking for 14 years then starting again for 3 1/2 months.  Looked at the picture of the lung.  Doesn't do it for me because I still remember the actual lung they brought to my grade 7 or 8 class.  The picture looks lovely in comparison.  No, when I decide to quit, I decide to quit and then I battle all my demons or little voices telling me to go and buy smokes. I have wanted to go and buy smokes about 20 times in the last two days.  Interesting that I don't have one dollar in my wallet.  No, I am done with it.  OK, sounds good but I will still love the continued support because there are always those weak moments.  Keep it up everyone!!!!  Together, we can make it happen!!!!!!

Di and the now bad dog named Cali that decided it would be enjoyable to chew on my dining room table legs.  Have I mentioned I love this dog????  :)

:D

Congratulations!
Quiting smoking is such a wonderful thing to do for your body and those around you, including your furry friends. Well done and good on you. Saying 'no' takes courage.

BTW Di I resisted second helpings at lunch today and it was Ungreen's Ennui Chilli, so you know it was hard! I even resisted a choc chip cookie after that.  I'm fighting on your side, girl. We can both do this. We both just have to keep the wrong things out of our mouths. :D

Thanks everyone!!!!!!! And Yabbitgirl, you make me laugh!  Way to go on the seconds.  You are fighting on my side and I on yours!  You are absolutely right, we can both do this.  And yes, we do have to keep the wrong things out of our mouths....... hee hee hee. 
It is day three.  Actually don't even have a craving.  Although coughing up a lung might be helping with that thought.  Took today off and now I am in a huge cleaning mood. 

Sorry about NY!  :-(

Good job!
gonna make it look easy for me, eh?

When Will and I quit for a few weeks last summer, we got more yard work done, more bike rides in the woods, my house was spotless...we weren't much fun to be around, but we got a lot done.

We picked April 1 as our quit date; that gets me through my exam and something about ceasing to do something foolish on April Fools Day seems appropriate.

You are in my thoughts, girl.  ;)

Hey good on you and how funny to pick April Fools Day.  It does seem appropriate and I will be cheering you on. 

I know I will have my hard days but I swear, I am so angry at myself for starting again after 14 years that I hope the anger manifests itself into cleaning, and eating right and taking care of myself! 

Yepper, I will be one boring person too and not much fun to be around.

On a cheery note, I just booked a hike to do with Cali in June to learn how to paddle (with a dog in the canoe) and then we are doing a doggy and women's retreat three day thing in August with two of my girlfriends and of course, the dogs!  A fourth girl may join us too.  These hikes are all planned with a wonderful organization and they are a blast.  Did two one day ones with Cali this past fall.  Photography workshop hike and animal communication workshop hike.

So, back to smoking or not smoking.  Post the second you quit so we can be your cheering section!!!!!!
