I'm so FRUSTRATED!

And to Hummy, Ladybugg and Christine (Cobenfan) - Thanks to you as well for your kinds words and tremendous support. Ya'll have made this quit the easiest one for me. Having quit by myself before with no support it didn't go too well. But coming here to the SSC and hanging with ya'll has made all the difference in the world. I know that I will never go back - even the cravin' has quit! There is just too much at stake here in life to sabotage myself now! Have a blessed weekend!

Ok who wants a cigarette???

I have been missing you - where have you been? and how is your Mom? I think that you are just going through a blah stage. It sounds like you need a great big reward for being strong and continuing on owning your quit. What can you do for yourself that will make you forget about this sudden tremendous urge to put a cancer stick in your mouth and suck on it? The folks (which includes you and me) who are quit from 50-100 days have started a cruise to get to the beach - in the "Avoid Slipping" discussion threads - so first of all come hop on the boat! Then think of something wonderful for yourself just yourself - and do it! Don't compare your quit to your husbands. You know that everybodys quit is different. It effects us in different ways, in our thoughts and also in our physical response to the nicotine oozing out of our systems (do you really want to go back there to let that happen again)? Am I painting a bleak enough picture? I know that you are a strong woman. You helped me through every day of my quit - to begin with as a newbie - and now as someone who wants all the February Knights to stay committed to a fresh smoke free lifestyle. You ARE an inspiration to me and all others here!

50 to 99 Cruise Ship Departing for the Century Beach!

Welcome Healer!!! What a wonderful view we have from your stateroom! The dolphins are coming up to my side - I think I might go for a swim with them! Later on come on up on the deck - I'm sure that we'll have something fun going on - maybe a calypso band!!

A Knights call to the Round Table

Island Girl here - checking in at the Round Table. Doing well - not smoking and finally being able to travel and hang out with my friends that do. They just are stinky but I love them so I can get past it. Am joining the Masters swim team again tomorrow morning -pretty nervous about that - but I got to get moving! Knights Rule!
