This has been the worst week for me and I am in my third week..First week was not all that bad neither was the second. But this week is the closest I have come to caving in since I started this.

As many here know coffee and a smoke or any nicotine for that matter with coffee goes hand in hand...For me giving up my coffee in the mornings was not an option...No way Jose! But a couple weeks ago I ran into what they call Death Wish Coffee...Now you can buy this stuff in ground form or in the K Cups which is what I have....This coffee is strong! Strong enough to bring a T-Rex to it's knees! And thats pretty damn strong... I have one cup in the morning which is when the cravings seem to be the worst...And what I have found especially for me is that this stuff takes the edge off! Now, this may not work for everybody but it has for me so far....But one word of warning here do not drink this stuff at night especially before bedtime or you will be a zombie the next day!! If you would like to check it out just Google "Death Wish Coffee Co".....

Who you gonna call Butt Busters....LoL

NODE!

CanKickers! For those trying to ditch the Dip!

I recall back in elementary school my brother and I got our hides tanned for smoking! Yeah you guessed it, elementary school kids! Well we laid off the stuff for years picked it back up in high school and the race was on.....I smoked all through high school and through my days in the US Military....Smoking as such did not bother me much back then being young and running six miles a day in the military kept my stamina up pretty good.... Once I got out of the military I continued on the smoking path for about another 20 years all that money I wished I had back...Of course back then cigs were only like $1.75 a pack high for the time but not nearly what they cost now...Then my brother, who has since passed God rest his soul got me on the Dip craze as he like me was a smoker....I avoided the Dip for a while but then took his lead and gave it try and from there the rest is history...I continued to Dip for about another 10 years or so but one visit to an ENT doctor changed the only complexion.. It's funny how all it takes is a doctor giving you the long face to change your attitude. And makes you see just how fragile life can be....

NODE - Not One Dip Ever! Day 15.. Death Wish Coffee knocks off the edge.
