Nope!

Every statement you've made here shows a maturity in attitude toward your quit, which will serve you well in the long run! Carry on AceWhite.

It's human nature to deny, deny, deny. We're special somehow and it won't happen to us, only other people. Well, clearly that's not the case yet that invincible thought process seems to stay with us. It is crazy! Sorry to hear your friend is in the situation he's in but I'm sure he's pleased you got the message and are doing something to try and limit you own ongoing exposure.

You want the boat ready when?

Nope!

Will there be "spring surprises" in your back yard for hubby to clean up @Mee

I can tell you that with my own quit, the last really big (quit threatening) day I had was at about my 6 week quit point. After that time, things just seemed to be much more manageable to me. Having said that Linda, we are all different and milestones we reach in our quits happen at different times. I just wanted to relate my story to you in hopes it would bring a ray of sunshine into your life. The early days and yes, even weeks, of quitting are tough. You need a few rays of light along the way. As Mee said, things do get easier along the way. The thing that always bothers me is that I could not notice that happening at the time. I could only see it looking back at my own quit. Stay the course Linda and you too will get there. Battles becoming fewer and less intense along the way
