It's a very tough morning

Hey Tutti I feel like a yo-yo today too. I had a bad night last night. I sat to long and had my back hurting. I took my meds and I wanted to smoke sooooo bad. But I didn't. Today I am just a crab. Energy is low. Trying to fight this depression. 8 more days til I see the doc. I sure hope he lets me do more. I know thats going to make this a little easier. Yeah I'd hate to see you get fired for being on the net. haha. That could cause you to light up ;p Hope you have a great day. We getting there. Hey whats the deal with Phil and the Tuesdays? Am I missing something? It seems to be a joke but I missed out I guess. Have a good one. Hope to hear from you soon.

Haha Thats just to funny. Maybe if we had bit of honey and couldnt open our mouths we would never smoke ever again. I laughed at that one. I'll try these red hots and things. Yipee a trip to Walmart. I'll be getting out of the house again. Thanks for staying in touch. And really thanks for the laughs. I need all them I can get today. Staying strong with you guys...

I know I thought that was great too. After just talking about them babies and now here comes another. How awesome is that? I just talked to my daughter on the phone. She is on her way to work and feeling much better today. That "thing" she kicked out is not the father of her kids. Thank God!!!! She was scared that I would smoke too. I said if I have gone through all this crap and haven't lit up then maybe this is the real deal. Today is starting out real good. I hope it stays that way. Have a great smoke free day grandma to be ;p [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 2/19/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 11 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 510 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $132 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 1 [B]Hrs:[/B] 7 [B]Mins:[/B] 39 [B]Seconds:[/B] 23

It's a very tough morning

Hello again. I am thinking positive. My daughter has kicked the bum to the curb. At least thats what she said. I have no reason not to trust her but I'm still keeping the kids for awhile. She can use a break. And they do help me not smoke. They both hate it. Another plus for me. You have been so nice to me. I am so grateful for that. I'm still not quite sure what to say to others since I'm not even sure what to say to myself. Does that make sense? Some of them I wish good luck to but the others are so much wiser than me that I just read their thoughts. Today was alot of cravings day. But I am drinking the water and saying things to myself. Like what a difference it will be when I truly kick this habit. Sometimes I cuss myself out too. :p I hope we stay together through all this. I'm glad that I have connected with someone. Stay strong and thanks for hanging with me!!!

I smoked last night!

Good luck to you DJ. Think about the baby and that will help. I was lucky my two kids came out ok. I smoked with both of them. I never really thought about the dangers 30 years ago. Stay strong. It's not easy but this site has real good reading!!! I haven't been here to long and I have learned so much. One day at a time ;) [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 2/19/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 10 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 482 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $120 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 1 [B]Hrs:[/B] 5 [B]Mins:[/B] 56 [B]Seconds:[/B] 37

It's a very tough morning

Hi Tutti. The last 24 hours have been pure hell. Along with this healing process and quitting smoking I just found out my daughter is in an abusive relationship :8o: I should have seen the signs but with everything going on I somehow missed it. Last night was awful and I wanted to smoke a whole pack at one time. But I didn't!!! I feel God is testing me or the devil is trying to get me. LOL Not sure yet.. I feel like I'm losing my mind. I have taken my 2 grandchildren away from her until she comes to her senses. She is such a good mother that i just don't understand what has happened. But hopefully she will think about all I said to her last night and see the light. I feel like I'm losing the battle today. Help me stay strong please!!!

It's a very tough morning

I have been so mean that nobody wants to talk to me. Which is ok. I don't want to talk to them either. I had some real strong cravings today too. I have to fight myself all day long. The evenings aren't as bad cause my Husband is working. So I don't have to smell them. Although I think they smell bad now I would love to have one. But I won't... Spring is coming and I want to be ready with my new back so I can do all the things I haven't been able to do. Plus I have to find another job. I was doing new construction cleaning and I can't do that anymore. So I'll be job hunting in 8 weeks when I am released. Hope tomorrow goes better for us. I'm going to bed now so the demons will leave me alone. Have a great night. And keep in contact please...

It's a very tough morning

Thats neat how we did the same job. I worked for a friend and my job was the bathrooms. These houses are estate homes. The bathrooms are as big as some of the other rooms. Showers that can easily hold 10 people or more!!! I have cleaned up enough paint and drywall mud to last a lifetime ;p But it kept my weight down and the pay was good. Not to mention working with alot of good looking men :p The demons bothered me all through the night. It was either the demons or my pug puppy hehe. I didn't sleep well at all. Hope you have another smoke free day! Sometimes it feels like I'm hanging on a thread. I want to smoke and then I think of all the reasons I don't won't smoke and then try to reason which one is more important. Sound crazy? I know which one is more important but it sure can be a tough choice at times. Stay strong. Hopefully today you will feel better. It's ok to be crabby heck we are crabby!!!! Have a good day, Terri [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 2/19/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 12 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 559 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $144 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 1 [B]Hrs:[/B] 10 [B]Mins:[/B] 41 [B]Seconds:[/B] 36

It's a very tough morning

I hear every word you are saying. I do get tired of fighting all these feelings. Sometimes I just want to throw my hands up and say give me one...But I haven't. I finally will start the Chanrix tomorrow. The doctor thinks it will help. Since I have came this far everyone says just do it. I say if this pill can help me fight then I will take it. No word on the Echo :mad: He knew I was waiting. The only exercise I can do is walk and with retaining all this water I can't hardly do that. I'm getting so fed up.. So now that I said all that---How is everyone else feeling? I hope it will get easier as more days go by.. Right now I'm just praying I don't punch anyone ;p [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 2/19/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 26 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 1,209 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $312 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 3 [B]Hrs:[/B] 3 [B]Mins:[/B] 0 [B]Seconds:[/B] 47
