Thank you and yes, absolutely wonderful people here. One of the first things I said when I got here was that I had never asked for help or support in my previous quits & I wasn't all that comfortable with it (I'm from Western Canada, we don't much ask for help) but right away I felt so welcome & it's been incredibly helpful going through the old posts. Also, amazing that long-timers like Penitent, Phil & Butterfly Swimmer as well as others, hang around for newbies. I know I'm gushing more than any self-respecting Canadian should but this has just been so awesome for me. I want to come back & help newbies too, after I have a zillion days on my metre.

Hi Unhooked, yep I am male. The peeps on here have an amazing way of making anyone feel welcome. I owe a large part of my ability to quit to them. I'm just very glad I found the site when I did. Instant best friends if somewhat long distance.
Congrats on passing hell week btw Unhooked. The future is bright.

Ok, that seemed to work. Must keep it short. Many thanks for your support. Am on Day 2 now...somehow. Think happy thoughts and the Tuesday Parade.

Hi Aloha and Phil,
It's Sunday indeed. So now I have set my counter and set forth thinking about songs. Its the first nice day since I last went on my smokefree mission.
As the first to ask, I've come up with a double whammy. Are you sure you want to know?
The first song is :
Kelly Clarkson : Since U Been Gone
But Since U Been Gone
I can breathe for the first time
I'm so moving on
Yeah, yeah
Thanks to you
Now I get
What I want
Since U Been Gone
Why? Well its an ode to smoking and kinda peppy.
And the other, well its
Muse : Butterflies and Hurricanes
Why? Its a link to one of your hobbies, and the fact that you're one powerful poster!
Hope you like. Now Phil on the other hand i'm going to have to think about. p.s. I like the sunflowers!
Kev
