Super, these last few days, Lainey. I feel like some real acceptance is happening within me. I don't know what tomorrow holds, but I'll take today. It's been good.

Good for you, Lainey. Hope you feel better. I'm feeling blue today as well. Nice weather, staying clear of sitting outside. Season change, new hurdle to jump. Maybe that's why I'm feeling blue today. Hang in there Lainey, this journey only gets better!

"Hold on to what is good, even if it`s a handful of earth. Hold on to what you believe, Even if it`s a tree that stands by itself. Hold on to what you must do, Even if it`s a long way from here. Hold on to your life, Even if it`s easier to let go. Hold on to my hand, Even if I`ve gone away from you."

Lainey, Good for you for getting rid of those thoughts. Take some time to relax before attempting the garden and make sure you relax and enjoy yourself. The weather is amazing, so get out there and be happy :) Josie _____________________ The SSC Support Team.

Thank you Ladies! I do feel better today! Of course I didin't smoke, that is not even on the menu anymore. It's great to have you gals around just to lean on occasionally, as hubby - well he's a guy who just doesn't get the emotional thing, as much as he tries. He's taking me for a drive later this morning and then we'll maybe tackle some yard work. I read the Allen Carr book and one line stuck with me, instead of thinking "I want a cigarette" think "Yipee I am a non smoker" So I have been practicing..... YIPEE I AM A NON SMOKER! :) [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 3/5/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 48 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 1,210 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $506.4 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 5 [B]Hrs:[/B] 20 [B]Mins:[/B] 24 [B]Seconds:[/B] 13

Hi Lainey, I had a similar day. Spring arrived, and I wanted so badly to sit on the deck and enjoy it...but that was always "smokin' time", sitting in the rocker, glass of iced tea, and my cigarettes, watching all the critters and birds, listening to the sounds of nature. How relaxing... I guess that's why they say you have to go through all of the seasons to feel "really quit". So instead I ended up scrubbing the BBQ grill, and then went for a manicure! Tomorrow is another non-smoking day...maybe I can enjoy the deck for a little longer than I did today.
