I've managed to hold on to the positive vibe so far. I also managed to get some more sleep last night. I think that might make a big difference. Plus is is Friday, and the sun is out for a bit.
I promise to my SSC friends and my quit buddy that I WILL NOT SMOKE TODAY.
Nance, coincidentally, I did manage to find a new word for that negative word. 'Quit Buddy Appreciation (QBA)'. Appreciation for the fact that a thought of her (my quit buddy) carrying on happily smokefree ensures that I cannot smoke. I think that is a positive spin on it.
I thought of all of this in the bath. :)

Hi Danielle,
Well that seems to have done the trick, thanks! A nice hot bath with essential oils and I found my positive vibe again! I forget about the rewards thing sometimes, though I know how important it is.
Hope I keep the vibe going through tomorrow.
I should stay away from bees because I imagine I smell like a sunflower right now. :)

Kev,
Whoever told you to "fake it til you make it" was right! Start faking it today, and you will make it so!
We are here, use us!

Hi Nance, struggling a little today, hence my positivity slipped a bit. Am working on it again. Its still not enough to make me smoke of course. Especially after I make a promise.

Kevin,
Long-shot target? Maybe you should make that a short-term goal. Sounds a bit more positive, doesn't it? Actually, your short-term goal is to not smoke today, and since you have promised us all, you will achieve it!
Be positive!
Nance

Kev,
You've got to know...........you must know.............that I was then, where you are now - both in timeline and frame of mind. I went through day 15 and it was tough but I refer to it for you to realise that you too will be on day 1164 if you continue to go through day 15s and you can if you really want to.
Great effort so far, JFDI !!! :)
