I made it -no slip!!!!

Thanks all for the support about my trip back to OK -- well, we made it! I forgot how much I looked for to all those "stops" and the excuses I made for them! Everytime we pulled in today to let Priss (my dog and second child) out I would have this intense craving. It was sooo hard - I started out by saying "I want a cigarette really bad, but I am a non-smoker now" - by the end of the trip I was much much better. However, we got home and received a bill from a pipe supplier (and not the type of pipe I remember from back in the day!) and lets just say it cost more than my first home. I about had a stroke and my very first thought was... you guessed it - but my second thought was NOPE - I can do this. So now, a few hours and a few reviews of my coping skills ( you all were so right - it really helps), I am tucked in and ready to tackle tomorrow! Blue Cloud - were you the person I passed bopping her head and chewing on a straw? Because I know you weren't the one in the car with so much smoke I couldn't tell if it was a man or woman! Yuck! Thanks again all. I can guarantee without any doubt if I didn't feel the accountability to myself and yes, to all of you, I would have slipped today for sure.
