You receive a mountain that is never dirty again. I insert hue and saturation values of colour

Yep, this isn't what Ok. I saw that. but, I don't like the way it shows up on the front page I am confused and can't articulate well. Let me give it some thought. Thanks SueBeDoo you are a marvel

I have done all that but, still see no place for comments.

I am right with you MQ. Still, the subject remains more contentious than with other NRT's and I would like it to be open for discussion.

I don't want to discuss it here, chrys. I would like it to be a topic for a weekly discussion

With the invention of Electronic Cigaretts, there are a slew of non smoking Nicotine addicts. Some will maintain their addiction. Some will want to quit Nicotine and others will quit nicotine and still vape (like Nay Nay). ECigs have been a contentious subject on many boards and with many people but, I think we need to address the reality and learn how we can help people deal with the Vaping side of Nicotine addiction. I know ECigs haven't been 'approved' as an NRT but, that doesn't stop people from using them as an NRT. (and I never gave a rat's a s s what was 'approved' or not approved) Perhaps, in the not so distant future, it will be the 'vapers' along with a dwindling amount of 'smokers' that we can help with Nicotine addiction. I would like to educate myself further about this and make them welcome here. Thoughts ?

I wish we could have comments and conversations on the profile page. A 'howdy do' every now and then would be cheering and not as involved or private as a pm

-6 I've got to wet brushes fgs. just spent half an hour watching Sesame Street numbers and letters on your post in celebration, Doll :D

I think you are right Doll but, I am going to say snorkeling . Many Scuba divers don't care much for it and maybe Pet is one ?

-5 sorry about that tube, Doll. My grandmother would stick a clove of garlic in my ear.

Yep. I owe my quit to Me ! It is the best thing I have ever done for myself. I have many to thank for my education like Joel and Alan and all y'all by reading on the boards. But, it was my idea out of the blue to try to quit smoking.

-3 feel better Doll not like walking dead ?

-1 :) good morning all. glad Joe got his Big O this morning. a reward for all those leaves raked ?

I was really resistant to 'pledging' or committing to ANYTHING, . It felt silly and ridiculous. When I learned the truth about nicotine addiction , the truth about MY ADDICTION, I realized I HAD to commit to myself and my quit if I truly wanted to Be Free. The TRUTH was that I could NEVER have another puff . I tentatively whispered NOPE to myself and that small voice became louder and stronger and helped break down my resistance, NOPE helped to harden my resolve and helped me to understand my addiction. I know you can 'NOPE' in different ways...it may be semantics but, for me, NOPE is neat and tidy and convenient and ALWAYS True.. eta: The 'ever' part of NOPE has been most instructive and thought provoking to me. The never forever part that hangs people up. It hung me up too. I had to really accept the truth about addiction. I am an addict FOREVER and that can't be changed. I can handle not smoking day by day or hour by hour and living in The Now but, I am an addict forever and ever.

Watching the Sun rise or the Sun set or the clouds flurry around. Reading and editing some of my abandoned writings.

Wendy, Every Day is a celebration when you are FREE !! Happy One Month
