Mercy,I can,t keep up with you tonight.So I thought( I do it to from time to time also LOL)I,d pop in hear to catch up to you. These comments are not exactly what you had in mind but here we go . Forever is in the future we can plan for it but we can,t live there.Where we live is here and now.Just as my 30+ days are in the past I don,t live their either.My point being that if I live my life minute by minute I don,t have to concern myself with never. Sorry to be so boring.But I do know I will never do mescaline again. ;) [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 3/21/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 34 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 627 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $340 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 8 [B]Hrs:[/B] 5 [B]Mins:[/B] 40 [B]Seconds:[/B] 49

Got to thinking again. yeh...I do that from time to time..LOL I have been wondering why I have had a harder time the past few days. I also have wondered about that 60 day bump too. I think after the initial excitement from quiting....the high so to speak......... the "finality" hits. Here I am at day 94!! but...so what. It is the same old...and no one cares..(but you guys) It hits you...."THIS IS IT"...FOREVER!! never one...NO.. not one puff....ever..never...ever! There isn't a goal to reach...except FOREVER. A diet has a goal. If you weigh 150 pounds and you want to be 120...you diet. Eventually if you remain on your diet you get to your goal........your "finished" But when you quit smoking.....your never there...are you? Soooooooooooo....is that bad? It sounds so "scary" Maybe that is why many fail after they have quit for so long. The reality of "NEVER ONE PUFF" finally hits home. I think we need to analize NEVER!! There is LOTS of things we would never do and we are not upset about it. Never doesn't have to be bad or scary. So help me out...and lets make a list of things we will never do...or things we have tried that we will NEVER do again. It may put the "never" smoke again in the proper perspective. sooooooooooooooo. I'll start. I will never smoke again.. and I will never go up a chair lift with skis on my feet again!!..EVER [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 1/21/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 93 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 1,876 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $415.71 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 12 [B]Hrs:[/B] 3 [B]Mins:[/B] 56 [B]Seconds:[/B] 7
