Reciprocity

My mother in Atlantic Canada is gonna get whacked by what ever is left of this thing. Looks like Sat evening or night. Likely just heavy rain and winds by that point. Power outage will be her biggest concern I expect. That and the potential of trees falling on her house. Her property is pretty heavily treed. We'll see what happens.

I bet your Kitties are happy you quit too!

Here's an indication of how often this happens Chicks!

I didn't understand this concept of "a craving" in the early days of my quit (almost the entire 1st month) because if I was awake, I was almost overwhelmed with the desire to smoke. It had no beginning and no end. I just didn't think about it as often when I kept myself busy. occupied and distracted. It wasn't until later that I would occasionally get a sudden urge to have a smoke. I mostly couldn't tie those to "triggers" either. It would just come out of nowhere when I was almost anything - sometimes nothing at all. I was never really tempted to smoke due to stress or life situations. I suppose I was able to keep my life and my quit separate like that. What was in my brain in terms of what I thought a cigarette would do for me? Not really sure. I guess that Ahhhhh feeling of pleasure from taking those first couple of drags. Sure am glad I never gave it up though.

How many of us didn't say at some point; "I'll quit when a pack of smokes costs (fill in the $ number)!" Then we made an excuse to continue when the price got there.

Nope!

Go to Australia if you want a real shocker for the cost of a pack of smokes. Then there's Saint Martin, in the Caribbean. Price per Carton!! (10 packs of 20):

I think it's the same way for all of us Martian! Different circumstances perhaps but always the same pride of accomplishing something we never thought we could or would. Great feeling eh?
