Intro and Good Morning

Thanks so much for all of the warm welcomes. I am doing well - haven't touched one in almost a week now - yippee! Definitely helps to be able to log in here and read, especially at 2 and 3 am when I can't sleep, lol.

Well, this is it.

Free - first of all lots of hugs from the new kid on the block! Secondly, PM me PLEASE. Not sure where you guys live, but I know someone in the Payroll/HR software field who MIGHT be able to recommend someone or pass on a resume. Hugs!

Top 5 things that trigger cravings and how we handle them!

1. When on the computer. I have been cleaning like a demon. There is a motto, "you can do anything for 15 minutes". SO, I am using this motto in more than one way - first as a distraction from cravings, and secondly I tell myself " I can go 15 minutes without a cigarette, easy" and by the time 15 minutes if gone, the crave has passed and I have decluttered something. 2. Morning coffee. sip slowly enjoying that I can REALLY appreciate the flavor now. 3. When my hubby lights up. As soon as he leaves, I go through the house and get all of the ashtrays. I wash them and put them up so that when he comes home he has to go get one. 4. In the car - I buy a huge cup of ice from sonic and munch on that. Increases my water intake, no calories, and keeps me busy. 5. After eating - drink more water.

Intro and Good Morning

Thanks Lady! Yeah, I may try the Tylenol PM tonight, as I don't have to set the alarm in the AM. I really thought I would sleep like a rock last night - I was falling asleep sitting up while waiting on my daughter to get home from the High School Football game!! Imagine my surprise when I sat straight up in bed at 3:30 am and couldn't go back to sleep, lol. Oh and your kids sound great! Your bit about trying to get them to let you go back to smoking made me darn near give my monitor a cranberry juice shower ;-) TK [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 8/31/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 2 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 70 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $9 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 0 [B]Hrs:[/B] 4 [B]Mins:[/B] 46 [B]Seconds:[/B] 28
