milaya, To update your buddy list, right-click anywhere over the list and click 'refresh buddies'. Much quicker. :) We CAN do this!

Getting Ready for Tomorrow!!!

:) I'm sure the work will wait! right now, you just do whatever it takes to get through this! Protect the quit. If the 'puter is a trigger, use it as little as possible (but please do try to check in!) And if work has to get done, try setting up a temporary office somewhere else in the house. You're doing great, distraction is the best medicine right now. And don't forget the rewards...we need to retrain our brains that NOT smoking feels good! *laffin* I know right now it doesn't seem like that's true...but it will. You're going through hell week...so just do it a day at a time and trust the decision you made. It'll get better!

I'm so FRUSTRATED!

Island girl, If it was easy to convince a smoker to quit...there wouldn't be any smokers. I have lost several family member to smoking. And I kept smoking. I had pneumo-thorax twice...from smoking. I wanted to quit desperately. And I still had several false starts. Anytime anyone tried to get me to quit, I dug in deeper. Be patient, supportive, lead by example, and keep praying. It worked for me.

Penguin is leaving

I understand, penguin. I have been there. Please don't stay away too long. Take some time to figure out what your stumbling blocks are and how to get around, over them, or through them.
