I hope that everyone is enjoying the month of March so far. I am waiting impatiently for Mother Nature to get off her high horse and spread a little warm weather and put an end to all the snowstorms we've been waiting long enough but I'm told patience is a virtue and when I think about it quitting smoking for me took alot of patience to get through some of the most difficult times of my life, the times when people didn't dare speak or even look at me in case I might rip off their face or bite their heads off. I actually wondered in those first few weeks if quitting smoking would ever get easier and my answer is definitely yes, it most definitely gets easier each day but you must be willing to go through some rough patches in the first few weeks to get to a better place in your quit . Today is my 234 th day and counting a week from Sat on the 14th will be my 8 month milestone, believe me everyone that is new to this site quitting smoking is definitely doable. I smoked just shy of 40 yrs and it's been quite a roller coaster ride but I am living proof that we can be happy after cigarettes. Have a wonderful day everyone.

I'm a proud Gram of 2 grandsons and a granddaughter and I consider myself a jack of all trades and a master of none, plus I enjoy reading and being outside and since quitting smoking breathing is so much easier because I'm not coughing half of my time sucking on a cancer stick....
