the link didn't open for me ... hope it's safe.

There were opportunities.

Lovely pond and landscaping, very tasteful.

Congratulations on 6 months, Linda!

Congratulations on 1 month, @Steven Drojensky. That's a great milestone.

that's nicotine's way, isn't it? Waiting to ambush you - hey, it's 6 months, wow, let's celebrate with ... a smoke. It really is important to stay on guard at these milestones. You're doing great with the quit.

@Robbie, there used to be threads about smoking all the time in the past as @jillar already pointed out. Now that you posted one, it does seem odd that there hasn't been one for some time. It's normal - I dreamed as well a few times and it is a relief to find it was a dream Early in the quit, dreams can be quite vivid (and I'm sure there's a thread explaining that).

Nope!

where?

@jillar Congratulations! It's a marathon I think.

Congratulations @MLMR. Agree - this thread is possibly a great help to others in a similar situation. Sometimes our challenges and how we deal with them can be an inspiration to others and so is important to share. And yes, your English is very good - I wouldn't have guessed.

@Doreensfree, Congratulations! @Katgirl, @Boo Our work is cut out for us - let's up our killing game to become a rising star.

Congratulations on 5 months AceWhite.

Congratulations on 8 years, Nancy!

Congratulations on 3 months, Robbie!

Congratulations on 8 months!

Congratulations on 10 years!

Nope!

You 'could' NOPE for that.

Sounds like it's time to come up with a formula .... If x = initial price y = current price z = number of years (assuming we're still alive in spite of smoking at the same rate, otherwise adjust z accordingly).

Please do be more careful with preparation h next time. Perhaps try to be a little less happy while clicking please. Well, 2 confessions and 1 crime - now who's the 'real' culprit. Was thinking it could have been a disk space issue resulting in catastrophic failure.

Have no idea where the savings went - there 'should' be all this extra money in the bank except there isn't. Should we be adjusting the ticker to reflect current prices - seems unfair that newbies get to save 'more' money than oldies.

Nope! Nope!

@Sirius, Hello friend!

@StevenHere, such a great post. Well done! You're doing all the right things, walking etc. For me, I decided it was too risky to leave it to chance. I mean, if I got into a situation like that and wasn't ready, it would likely lead to a bad outcome. So I decided to prepare and practice on my own terms. Decided to go and join the smoke buddies deliberately while they smoked. I think since it was done as an exercise, it was possible to stay on top of the situation without giving in and of course it helped going forward cause those muscles were already strong. Go for it buddy. What else is the saved money for?
