Hi Gonna - Notice how helpful I am....I wait a full hour after your post to finally find it and then respond when you are already better. (Which is maybe a good thing because otherwise I would feel the need to say something comforting and wise....and there are only so many "bright" thoughts left in my head) Is it winter blues or what? I'm going through abit of a funk...not wanting to smoke....just kinda a whiney...little bit cranky (perhaps because I have nobody to be cranky with right now!!) I don't need a cigarette but I NEED A BIG HAIRY BODY!! (Are we allowed to say that on SCC?) Maybe I should clarify....I have a big hairy body whom I love dearly and he is working out of province and I'm feeling a little lonely and out of sorts........so I don't need just ANY big hair body. PHew! That's better.........

Glad you clarified that not just ANY hairy body will do. Phil should be logging on at any time and you know how he is....LOL! I'm better already...nothing a few thousand calories in comfort foods couldn't cure! :blush: Actually that is not true. I have been eating sensibly and still not losing...funny how those pounds appear almost overnight and then take FOREVER to get rid of!

Why now? I've been such a good girl! The last two days have been especially hard for me. Thoughts of smoking seem to come in waves. There is no real reason, but it is happening. Yesterday I fought it almost all day. Today is a tad bit better, but again I thought more about 'it' than I have in quite awhile.....I know this will pass and believe me when I say I do not think I am at risk of smoking. A smoking co-worker (my enabler in a failed previous attempt) and I met today. She said let's go for a ride. I said only if it is in my car and there is no smoking..I have gone almost 140 days now. So we continued our conversation in the front corridor. I miss seeing her every day as I used to and she told me she misses me, but I told her until I think I am strong enough to be around her smoking, I cannot be with her in a 'smoking allowed' environment. That was a big step for me, especially in the midst of 'my thoughts' lately. This has not happened to me since the steering wheel incident.... I'll have to do a search...that's been quite awhile ago, I think. Thanks for letting me vent. Golly...I feel so much better already and I have not even hit the 'post new discussion button'.
