Congrats, my dear, dear friend! I am so proud of you for not giving in, and ecstatic over the little one! My grandbaby will be one on April 6, and my eldest (in Memphis) is having a little girl on Tuesday (she will be induced)! I am soooooo excited. However, I am MUCH too young to be a granny to 2! Enjoy your time with the little one! They smell sooo sweet...and so do you!

Sparky, Congratulations on he new grandson. Does he have name yet? Well done too on not giving in to the tempatation!! As you say, it would be far too complicated a thing to manage without having to face the shame and disdain of others because you just can't cover it up. Not worth the bother.

yea! Sparky, I'm glad your home safely and beat the craves again. I do know what you mean. I am fighting off craves this week also and I think a lot of it is the fact that I am doing something different.

Sparky, Way to fight off those craves. I suspect they will get less and less over time, and with more life experience without the cigarette in our mouth they will eventually be but wisps of thought, easily brushed away. Trust yourself, give yourself credit, and most of all, reward yourself! So happy you're a smoke free Nana!

You're a veteran in this battle and it'll take a lot for that old demon to get a grip on you agian. Congratulations again on the new grandbaby and cheers for Gran too!!!

Way to GOOOOO Sparky. I know everyone appreciates it. I have noticed my dogs sneeze less... so if i smoked..they would give me away.. and NOT having smoke around them is sooo much healthier for all of us. A new grandbaby... How wonderful.. a big one too.

Way to go Sparky! Congratulations on the newest wee addition. And as far as the smoking goes...now I know why you're a great inspiration for me. You got yourself through one tough time...and you didn't cave!!!! That's awesome you should be REALLY proud of yourself. And as far as Mr. Kitty goes, I'm sure he would have smelled the smoke and you would have had a LOT of making up to do. Just as I'm sure that if Holly and Casey smelled smoke on me they wouldn't be very happy! All our lovely wee pets have VERT sensitive noses.
