Big O in the morning

Did you know that ***** (as in The Owl and the ***** cat) is edited OUT (as in censored) but, boxshitters is OK ? Hardly seems fair to Felines.

I've been listening to this all week and thinking about you. What you think ? A Woman Who Went To Alaska

wrong wrong wrong. just another trick from sticks to make them more attractive. Easy, now to hold our ground. huh ? -17 p.s. I will ship eye bleach when needed.

Is that what you do with Jerky ? Does it feel real good ? Does it satisfy ? Is it sanitary ? Is it SAFE ? -15

Congratulations Jimmy and Quitta Happy 19th Anniversary !

-13 poor, poor sticks, limp sticks, cracked and broken sticks, not very stick like sticks at all lately :(

Scouring autos and clothes and lungs will keep you a busy woman with no time for smokes ! Glad you have some Joy planned for the weekend. You are going to be amazed at your new lung capacity, they start their healing so quickly and the tiredness will soon pass. In the meantime, take luscious naps when you can. Don't Forget To Reward Yourself as this re-trains your brain to signal what rewards and pleasure are all about. Nicotine hijacks that capacity.

this is a beautiful visual, Sirius.

What a poignant story, Doreen. The Lad promising to Granddad...very powerful. He has seen so much and lived with the horrors of smoking. I pray it is impossible for him to smoke, just impossible. I am glad you spoke with him and keep speaking with him about important matters. You are his valuable ally, he is a lucky young man.

dammit Ev, if you are coming back DON'T PLAY FOR THE OTHER SIDE. :P Ev is -10 I am -11

The Balm of N O P E

Evelyn, Because of your forthrightness through the years, we know you have deep psychological scars, issues that none of us here can help you with, as sympathetic or forgiving as we might be. We are only here to free ourselves, to keep our freedom and to help free others from nicotine addiction, maybe have some laughs along the way. You were wrong to be cruel or 'bad' and 'negative' towards members who, in their own way, try to 'be there' for you. I do accept your apology. Thank you. A most healing salve for you, for me, for others will be for YOU to Quit Smoking. It starts with the Balm of NOPE. Love, S

Every Day gets better, you are doing so great putting smoking down and facing triggers. Hold on to your resolve. . If you are not vaping, nicotine has left your body - FOREVER to vape again will resume the addiction. It takes around 72 hours to free yourself from Nicotine. NOPE NOPE NOPE...a bottomless cup of NOPE and don't forget HALT Are you Hungry, Angry, Lonesome, Tired ? Address those issues instead of smoking through them like we used to do . Here is a Post about HALT. and HERE is another one Learning about what my body was asking for really changed things for me.
