NOPE Happy Friday, everybody!

Glad to hear you are safe, @Lust4Life

Stay safe during hurricane Michael @Lust4Life

Cute song by the White Stripes

It escalated pretty rapidly. It was one MPH below Category 5 at landfall (155 mph) after just forming a few days ago. For the weather geeks, some info on Michael from CNN: Prayers for @Lust4Life and everyone else impacted by this.

NOPE, never again.

Good for you, Lilly! This is a truly great thing you are doing.

Great post, L4L. I hid my smoking from some people and, looking back, I realize I wasn't fooling anyone either. Best of luck during Hurricane Michael. Stay safe.

Congratulations on 9 months smoke free, Shane! Thanks for all the awesomeness that you add here.

Congratulations Rose! Awesome job!

NOPE - I don't smoke anymore.

Hoping for the best for the folks in Florida and Georgia, in the direct path of Michael. South Carolina and North Carolina are also in his path as a tropical storm. There wasn't much flooding in my area but areas closely south of here are still dealing with high rivers, flooding damage, etc. The last thing they need is more rain.

Great stuff, T4C! What you are going through sounds normal. It might not feel this way but you are doing great!

NOPE - I don't smoke anymore.

NOPE

I had a number of short quit attempts over my past few years as a smoker and became very discouraged. I found that joining a quit smoking support group, like this one, really helped me quit smoking for good and I might not have quit otherwise. You will gain a lot of support in your quit journey as well as learn a lot about nicotine addiction (knowledge is power). It will also help hold you accountable in your quit. Being active here can really help, especially in the early days.

Welcome, Time4Change. Congratulations on quitting smoking. It is great to have you here.

Congratulations on 1 year smoke free, Sparkzzz! I hope you celebrate your big accomplishment today.

NOPE
