Congratulations on your quit Katv. You say, "For me, I'd say it isn't that big of a deal..." well, It IS a BIG deal. It is addiction ! You must learn all you can about nicotine addiction, this will help you figure out 'what am I gonna do instead', read read read until your eyes bleed. Understand what Nicotine addiction is all about. Make a commitment to Not One Puff Ever (NOPE) and stick to it. This is a serious commitment....like life and death serious and the way you keep yourself from buying or bumming smokes. Take smoking off the table. You don't smoke anymore. That is that. Sure, you may have some gruesome moments but, these are nothing you cannot handle by breathing deep beautiful breaths of oxygen, watching your blood sugar, drinking water and distracting you brain while it heals up. Don't smoke, start reading and watching the scary movies and the informative videos. You may find this thread helpful 10 Ways To Effectively Use This Forum To Help Yourself Quit Smoking

Triumphant Chicks ! BIG O

You got it, Ms V. Compassion will replace envy before long. I remember well the addiction yanking my chain every 20 or less minutes and I obeyed immediately, groveling then grateful for the hit.

AH ! Temps are under 90, 32c for the first time since May. it is only 67f, 19c this morning ! and only climbing to 75f, 23c today. What BLISS ! Windows open and work to be done in the courtyard

NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE NOPE

You are building a sturdy quit Ms V. It takes a year to conquer craves and seasonal triggers, might as well be with your troops here. I am so happy you are on QTrain, your experience is sure to resonate with everyone dealing with Nicotine Addiction. AND This may mean a year of Triumphant Chicks, always a bonus !

Oh these new fangled contraptions, I swear. I'm glad not to worry about hot water for Ms V. I've lived without and still appreciate it everyday. Although this summer could've turned hot water heater off and get a hot shower/do dishes around noon from El Sol.

@Vivianne Read the directions and learn your machine, Ms V ! You can't be going into Winter w/out running HOT. Can you at least fill up a tub with kettle water ? Hot water is essential luxury.

You are a RIOT, Ms V 🤣🤣 -6 The fact is....I have a bottomless bottom for slaps also, in the dark days (and not so long ago ! ) we Chicks were not as Triumphant as we have been of late. No little thanks to You !

@catlover, Love is in the house !
