PUP!!!!!!!!
 
Wow......That was an awesome post.  I am so proud of you.  
You looked the problem right in the face and  BAM ......took care of it.  You took control of not one, not two, but THREE
situations. You got in touch with your "inner Rocky Balboa" and came out fighting each time.
I hope your feel like the WINNER you are...
Congratulations on your decision and committment!!   Yes you DID IT!

Wow Pupikat That's so great that you decided to go for quitting the smoking now and with so much more determination than when you first set your quit date.  And to have that computer problem and just take a break and deal with it later, that's fantastic. All of these things you have done to  prepare yourself are going to help you in the days to come.  Make sure you have lots of ice water, give yourself some time to yourself with no responsibilities to your Mom, and make sure to take care of yourself during this time.  That NicoDemon can't survive anymore because it never offered anything for you and you have officially declared divorce, and I second the motion.  Now we can say yes to better health, happiness, and a new appreciation for life.
Way to Go!  Keep posting whatever comes your way, this site will help.

Well just like I said I woke up Wednesday, smoked my last cig,  and was doing ok. UNTIL... Mom ran out of smokes  and was not feeling well enough to go and get them. Up to me.  So I go and gets them. When I come back, I had not told Mom I was not smoking today, I thought the less made of it the better. She offers me one, I take it. I play with it for about 10 minutes, and Guess what I did. Can ya guess? Do ya give up? I threw it back on the table and came in here to "talk" to you guys.  Then guess what happened. The computer crashed with  a fatal error. There is nothing that makes me madder and I chain smoke when I have to fix this computer. So ya know what I did? Can ya guess? I turned it off.  Yep just turned it off and went to watch tv. Now you must know that I am obsessive when it comes to the computer and I can not rest until it is fixed. BUT I say to me self that NicoDemon ain't getting me today. Maybe tomorrow, but not today. Tomorrow is here and so far he ain't got me today either.
Thanks for the straight talk. It was your encouragement that made me believe in myself enough to resist the evil, biliousy, nasty smelling, smoke fog producing, Nicodemon.
I DID IT AND I AM FREE. (for today anyway.)
THANKS AND LOVE YA
Pupikat
