Octobreathers, how are you doing?

Still going strong! I was wondering what happened to you as well OMT. This weekend we had a visit from some friends from Syracuse. We lived there for seven years, and we averaged 182 inches of snow a year. They told us it was snowing when they left. Bummer. I'm planning on golfing again this weekend. I believe it's only going to be in the low 80's. I wish that could be my golf score. Smoking never entered my mind this weekend, but my wife kept telling me she misses it. I keep reminding her how much money we're saving. Well have a great day. NOPE.

Octobreathers, how are you doing?

Well, the blahs have struck! I've gotten my first cold since i moved to Florida 8 years ago. I don't think I felt this bad when I got a cold in Syracuse. All I want to do is get home and climb into bed. I just had some chicken soup for lunch, and I feel worse. I know that it'll be no trouble to not smoke for a while. The rest of my family had colds until last week, so I thought it go by me. Should be an interesting Thanksgiving. Hope sprquits is hanging tough, I was going to ask how she made out this weekend. Wrong terminology, huh? Take care guys.

I am Thankful to The SSC because....

I took it upon myself to decide to quit. Had my last cigarette Oct. 28th. Found SSC on the 30th, and the guidance from everyone here has made it so much easier for me. Everyday, I see how much money I've saved, and I see how much better the holiday season will be for my family. Thanks to all at SSC. You definitely know how to make quitting a much easier experience. Special thanks to one more try, and sprquits. You guys were my strength through hell, and heck week. Now I'd also like to thank everyone else, but the list is way too long. The support from everyone is overwhelming. I am forever eternally grateful.

Here Goes

I'm impressed by the amount of Canadian ladies giving up smoking. If this keep up, there won't be anyone buying cigarettes there anymore. That's a nice thought.... Congratulations to you freedom, and mischell. Keep it going, Everyone is here to help.

- 10 c + 5 f

Well bear, we don't have that problem in Florida. It's going to be in the 70's today. We just need to find a diversion. Working in the garden, etc. Maybe I'll clean the garage. Anyhow, no matter what the weather, we just can't give in to the addiction of so many years. There's just too much at stake.

I slipped ..... :(

I'm crushed! Well, not really. You almost made a full month! That's something to feel great about. I almost did the same thing Saturday while at a friends' house watching a football game. I ended up eating an entire bag of Doritos. I'm still hanging tough One more try, and I know that you can get it back together. I haven't seen a post from sprquits, I hope she's hanging in there as well. You can do it!!
