arghhh, I always forget the time differences. How about 5 or 6pm-midnight EST to accomodate all the time zones? Will that do it?

hahaha, me too . Wish I had come up with it myself. So nice to have clever people leaving their ideas on google.

How about the Rack Pack?

I'm thinking it might be fun to have a chat party on Friday at 800pm EST. Would love if the newbies could make it too! It's always fun to get a bunch of quitters in a chat room! Colleen will be your hostess for the evening providing the musical entertainment. There are generally others who provide entertainment too...... Hope you can make it and bring your own wine!

So good to know you are still with us and doing so well! Attitude when quitting is everything and your attitude is awesome! It's magical when people have been quit a short time and it dawns on them, often for the first time, that quitting is doable. Most of us felt like it wasn't for so long. Keep marching forward and remember what you hated about smoking when you have a bad moment.

Happy Birthday Babs! lol

Bosom Buddies ;)

Congrats Belle! So good to know you are still with us. One month is AWESOME. Keep rocking it!

How was it? You want to be careful in there. Things have been known to happen in chat. action can tell you all about it. ;)

Dinner sounds great! I'll set the table!

Excellent post Ross! It is so important to stay connected to the board for at least a year. It helps to keep you accountable, keep you educated and helping others to find the same freedom you have is both rewarding and helpful to your own quit.

That is true. It was Colleen not you Ava. pffft

Ugh , I know what you mean about hating interviews I do too. Try to relax and just let your awesome personality show through. they're gonna love you!

So sorry to read this my little tiny monkey friend. I used chantix and it helped lots. It took the edge off just enough to get my quit rolling. Just don't expect it to be a magic bullet because at the end of the day, you have to want to quit more than you want to smoke. No matter what. Even taking chantix I thought I might die it was so awful at first, but then it gets better. So when you start again try to hold on until the gets better part. That's were you want to be. It's a really good idea to try something different when what you've done isn't working and I am so very glad that you are not giving up on quitting. XX

I've noticed this too. I hope it's just temporary and that she checks in soon. :)

LOL, every time I see your user name that songs plays in my head! Love the monkeys!!

Does Bakon know you are practicing to be humbled? More importantly does Humbled know? I'm used to you being a girl with new purple hair but if you want to be a Martin I can support that too. xx ;)

YA! what she said!

LOL, this reminds me of a joke my mother played on me once. We both used to go tanning at this place and the owner always seemed a little "sketchy" to me. I used to mention this to my mother and say that he prob has camera's set up recording us etc.....half kidding but not completely... Then one day when I was leaving after tanning he stopped me on the way out and said...."nice tattoo". I FREAKED! I could not even breathe for a few minutes. He broke out in hysterics and told me how my mother had set it all up and gave him info on a tattoo I had recently got to make me think there were cameras! So Bakon, did you use to own a tanning salon?

I think that is an excellent suggestion. Of course we want you to quit smoking but I think adding that pressure right would only increase what is clearly an emergent time for you. Please come here anyway as we are your friends too. Praying for you Nat. I am so sorry for what you've endured. xx
