Hey, how come the different countries have different sign languages?

OMG... frucking aresholes are in there knowing Sian will be out to it cos of B-Northy night time and they are openly goading me to participate... are they frickin kidding me... wait.. there's a new post.... oooohhhh lookit ^^^ how frickin hot is that! .... Only a few hours to go, Sian said sneaky likes were kosher and will not be me on a re-start... I can frickin do this.... Thanks Mac, that pick helped me keep the NONE.... I was so close to caving...

You know you really don't need one more Mac, that's just junky talk. You can do this mate. We got ya back, don't listen to that COSdemon's lies about needing 'just one more'.

Welcome, Maclaren, I'm Fred. Sorry for the delay I was wiping the coffee off my monitor. You'll find drinks and doughnuts on the table to your left. Sian, has almost reached the 48hr exclusion and is just contemplating her options. I've just checked records and definitely no Boobies on our books, but its clear we have some stool pigeons and quite a few dodos. If you would to joins us and pledge NONE (not one number ever) and try the 48hr you will be most welcome. Together we can beat the COSdemon.

and if ya can't I've got ya six.... never doubt that.

Oh Sian... 5 a day limit... I know there's no just 1 but surely 5 a day sweety... you can do just 5 yeah. ?

^^ Wot he said... Well bloody done with fighting the pull. Round 3,962 goes to Givvy... you are so rocking this... I hate the Tobies who are all about the $... my old Tobie is actually my biggest supporter... I still by my pre-pay recharges from him and the occasional can of softdrink.. (cans $2) every time I walk up he says "I no sell you smokes, you good girl now" and then asks what I wont. Thanks heaps for sharing too... its something we are going to face from time to time... and I bet he's charging more than $1 smoke these days too.... money in your pocket, head high, pride and quit intact.

So Sian... you are nearly free of the 48 hr detox. Will you maintain your NONE or will you observe a daily limit?? I'm just pushing through to get that 48hrs up.

Today I pledge NONE ... Not One Number Ever... even if it is flippin Irish Numeracy Day... The whole world is out to tempt me... Stay strong Sian, I see Well Never Mind has already tossed their quit... I really want to woohoo the wees and other chick crew but I can't cos then I'll be on a reset. OH the numbers are calling. But no, I will not # today....half way there.

HAPPY - Pherel Williams... so its not OLD but it is Happy and another song the kid sang at primary school graduation so mummy pride moment happy... AND NOW ITS time for a subject switcherooski.... Today we will be listing thos things we do to or for our family... Iron her school uniform, especially those pesky white shirts.

Good Morning my fellow NOPErs.... with today being National Numeracy Day in Ireland we should I thought it would be a perfect time for some wonderful Irish Mathematics.... But much more important than being able to count to 100, even if we can no do so in Irish, we must all follow the lead of Flyod Mayweather... because it doesn't matter what life throws at it the only answer is NOPE... nothing rules my life but me. Topic of the Day: Things I do To and/or for my family & friends.

Thanks Saz... always with finding the gold in the vault.... well let me add to those who have gone before: So the usual, I thought I loved smoking, I thought it was how I coped with stress, I figured I didn't drink or doing anything else anymore it was my only "thing", smoking let me justify taking me time (alone in the backyard), I had failed at quitting before and monumentally so at that by tossing a big quit so what was the point, I'd just toss any other quit...but the reality is I was scared. I knew I could quit because I had for pregnancy and feeding... but I was petrified of quitting, I don't just mean scarred of detox and failure and it being hard... I was paralysied with fear at the thought of quitting. I would have panic attacks to the point of hyperventilating and blacking out at the mere mention of maybe quitting. I was so scared of running out I am still finding secret smokes stashed in random places around the house 5 months after quitting.... I know it sounds irrational and it is but long story super short I had an extreme and rare reaction to champix that resulted in me developing an actual phobia to quitting. The logical, scientific part of me knew that there were a few different factors that had to line up in just the right order for the champix to cause the reaction it did, I knew this... but all my brain latched onto was that I took Champix to quit smoking, and scary xyz happened when I took champix to quit smoking ...so... quitting smoking is bad and dangerous and I shouldn't be doing it. Now sane rational Jo knew this was the biggest load of crap on earth but that's what was there in my brain... If I quit smoking it would be catastrophically bad and I would die... so, not wanting to state the obvious or anything... but I did quit, 5 months ago and omg surprise, surprise the world didn't come to a grinding halt and I did not die. Yep, pretty sure I still have a pulse and a heartbeat and I am not a zombie. for 9 years I clung to the fear that if I 'tried' to quit something bad was going to happen and I was going to die.... held on to this phobia as justification for not quitting. The thing is, even though I have proved this phobia is unfounded the fear still sits there and I am fighting it every day. Every day before I post NOPE I have a little mini panic attack that this will be the day. Any snuffle, or niggle, or slight ache, pain or cough has me convinced I am going to die and its because I quit. Every day. So I honestly feel like I nearly have the heinous b1tch of a nicodemon beat into total submission, she rarely raises her her to anything more than a passing "oh we'd like a smoke now" that is so pathetic it is laughable, and sometimes I actually do laugh at her... but then at the same time is this constant fear (despite all evidence to the contrary). So if my nopes are big and flamboyant and over the top they are that way because for me NOPE is the cornerstone holding me up... and my quit castle might be built on psycological quicksand but I'm not sinking, and quitting has not killed me.

huh?
