Great stuff. Ashamed to be a musician and admitting I had forgotten this until you posted. RIP. What a great funk bass line and playing it with a pick on a hollow body electric bass.

Nope!

5- count the dimples if you're bored

Thank you, Jillar!! I am seeing my Mom this Tuesday as we celebrate her 87th birthday at the nursing home/rehab center. She will be impressed with her awesome stats! As per the new NYS Covid-19 rules: We have to show a negative covid test result from W/I last 7 days to visit with her for 1/2 hour. They only allow 2 visitors at a time. There are 5 of us siblings. You do the math! Right after we visit with her, we have to book an appt to visit her next week (only 1 visit per week) then get another covid test and hope there isn't a delay in getting the results back as right now could take 2-6 days for results!!!! I was lucky this time-got my results back in less than 2 days. If you want the rapid test, you have to find a place doing it....and they charge $50 for that even if you have insurance. Such a mess...but we will be bringing cupcakes for all...lemon w/ lemon cake and chocolate w/ yellow cake...Mom's favorites! 🎉😷

Thanks guys for finding some US friendly clips, means heaps to me...anywho really hope these ones work....

@Rozuki found this and thought it was something you could show your mom the next time you visit her, her awesome stats 😊

Obviously Eve's annihilated 😂

Hi Shezi, welcome to the Quit Train and congratulations on your decision to quit smoking! Like you, I used nicotine patches to help me quit. They were a godsend and made quitting so much easier (I had one other quit that was cold turkey). Personally, I don't think I would continue with nicotine (mints) after finishing the patches. I was very nervous at each step down in the patches. I had a little brain fog when I stepped down from 21 mg to 14 mg. I didn't notice any physical withdrawal symptoms when I stepped down from 14 mg to 7 mg and same thing when I went from 7 mg to no nicotine. So, for me, there was no reason to be nervous at all! I know we're all different though so you should do whatever you feel most comfortable with. Sounds like you are doing really well. Best wishes to you for a successful quit!

Unfortunately, most of Merritt's videos are blocked here in America. I'm sure I've mentioned it before but I hate the practice of Sony and UMG blocking music videos...now is not the time for that rant. Here is one video I found that those of us in the States can access...

Congrats, Bakon! 8 is great...as they say!! Carry on and KTQ! 🎉😷

A good reminder that anybody can quit. ANYBODY! Bakon is an idiot and even he figured it out. Good job dumbass.

Hello everyone , Thanks for the thread jillar !!!! I was going to post a thread about this , but there it was already ... Yes , i am still smoke free and it feels good . Cigarettes are out of my life and i don't even like the smell of it these days when anyone smokes near me . Going through a tough time here because of the Covid 19 issues . Other than that everything is good .

Fun fact....paul Robeson was t h e first profes dfionak singer to preform at the Sydney Opera House when he gave an improptu performance to the consy r into o n workers building it.

What's good for the goose is good for the gander

Downers were prescribed

That's right. Find a way, not an excuse!

Hi Shezi Welcome and congratulations on your six week quit. Sounds like you're doing well and keeping a positive attitude. Of course there will still be some bumps along the way and you'll just need to address them as they arise. Come here and vent, chat, or just browse. Others may start to think you should be "over it" by this point, but you have a new group who know better and will support you all the way. Keep up the good work. I seem to remember that Amazon eliminated their Return Department years ago because no one had ever made a mistaken purchase and all products worked beyond every customers expectations. 🤔

There's a lot of people both ex smokers and never smokers who hate when I suggest this clue but I tell you what, it really did work for me and a lot of others. And I got the clue from another member of the forum I was on. I really missed the hand to mouth thing too and this did a great job until I was strong enough to let it go as well. And fyi, my husband is a never smoker too and he also asked me all the time that shouldn't I be "over it" already. And this was only after a couple months quit. My point being that people who have never smoked can never really understand what we go through when quitting both mentally and physically. So cut your hubby and any other never smoker some slack but keep doing whatever works for you to stay smoke free 😊

Aaawwww thanks you guys.. 😘 still can't believe I'm 3 years done... yay go me 😁

Holy Sh*t that's right, that is a lot of cigarettes! 3,162‬ days here, that translates into about 94,840 cigarettes not smoked for me. Yikes!

7 years, 11 days smoke free (this is also 2,567 days) 51,347 cigarettes not smoked Holy sh*t that's a lot of cigarettes that would have ended up in my lungs!!
