Great News- so happy you are well! :)

Hi Nancy- I have to say it is just only okay. But the day is almost over..7 more hours to go. I am at work and the office is slow so I am sure this does not help- the day kind of drags.

Do you normally have issues parking? If so Congratulations on your perfect parking. This is great :P :bye: :angel: :clapping: :thank_you2: LOL..

When I was younger blue was my favorite nail polish- I used to get them done once a week with designs. Then I started to fish and the nails had to go. So my nails are only done for an occasion. They are plain. Orange is great as well as long as it is neon orange for summer.

I would love to just call out sick and take an unplanned day off from work. I just can't find it in me. This is a huge problem because I cherish my free time and want more of it.

Looks like you have lots of reds..

Happy April 29th! I am wondering If I just wanted my first week back. I wanted the feeling of being on top of the world. I woke up this morning and did not get out of bed immediately since I did not have to smoke. Thought I might run out and just buy cigarettes and be a closet smoker (which was just a dumb thought I know this will not work). So I started to think - standing in the bathroom I am realizing my body is fine - few little aches from yard work but other than that there is nothing wrong with my body. It is my brain that likes to make things difficult. I will have to remember this little body check idea and remind myself that I am okay there is nothing physically wrong. There is no reason to smoke.

So you are addicted to nail polish?? This is not a sin. Happy Nail polishing :D

I didn't clean the dinner dishes.. Have to get them done today after work. I wanted to work outside yesterday since for the next 3 days we will have rain. :( Action I ran out Milk as well These seem to be really small issues

Congratulations MQ and all Quit Train members and volunteers!!

I signed up as a member of the quit Train on April 7th and was so excited just like that I picked a quit date of April 9th. I did it- I quit smoking. for 13 days.The first week I was in a state of euphoria. The second week not so much I started missing my wicked little friend. I was determined to not buy cigarettes for if I did then I knew that would be the end of it. I have heard that the quitting process can be quite easy and I am reading a book by Alan Carrs the Easy Way. I have to say it did not seem very easy to me. Everyday is a fight to not smoke. This is a fight for my life. I have to win. I have to make this Easy. There were a lot of things that I liked about not smoking. My clothes do not smell, the house does not smell,I can smell things better, my chest stopped hurting, my cough was almost gone. My other half was very proud. Saving money is really awesome. Along with the good stuff it is actually very hard to not think about smoking all day long. Maybe this is the key. I have to figure out how to turn by brain off when it comes to smoking. Just pretend that I have always been a non smoker question my urges to smoke. For some unknown reason after 13 days I had enough. It was a constant feeling of struggling to do what I know is right. Not to smoke. I bummed a cigarette from the neighbor. I actually had 1 cigarette a night for 3 nights when I caved and bought a pack of cigarettes . Anyway before I purchased the pack of cigarettes I picked another quit day April 23rd. I did not quit. So here I am. I have smoked 5 1/2 packs of cigarettes in 4 and half days. My chest hurts, I can hear my wheezing again, and I have my daytime smokers cough back. I signed on to the board today to make my announcement that I did not quit. That was my only plan. I was not going to do this again. With the help and support of everyone here tomorrow I will not smoke. Tomorrow will be the first day of the rest of my life.

Happy Belated Birthday! I hope you had a great day :)

Congratulations!
