I remember back in the first few months of my quit how lifes stressers was really difficult to get through without thinking about having just one cigarette but thankfully I never had that one because if I did I doubt that I would be here right now because one probably would have screwed me up for quite some time. Believe it or not, it takes time to relearn different ways of handling situations without the crutch of smoking but it's absolutely wonderful when it does . Thank you everyone for your prayers for my daughter and her man and their son my little Mason, my Mack Attack, they're back together and they are ok, I never asked what happened and it doesn't matter as long as they're all ok, Mason said awhile ago on the phone that he really missed his Dad, I talked to Jason and my daughter Mandy and told them all how much I love them. I am to a point in my quit that no matter what I will not screw up my quit and smoking never entered my mind other than thinking about how happy I am that I don't smoke anymore and each one of you here that's struggling please know that it's going to get easier and easier as time goes by, read jonescarps aka dales page concerning the first 4 months of your quit , I read Dales page many times when I was having rough times and wanted to scream or rip your face off or tear my hair out by the roots and some days I might blog 2 or 3 times a day and there was always someone here to help me through ,stay close and know that quitting smoking and remaining quit is absolutely doable and absolutely worth it to be FREE!

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....
