I wish everyone a great day and if anyone here hasn't quit smoking yet , this is the time to take back your life while you can , there's a wealth of information here to strengthen your resolve to quit smoking and remain quit and if there's anyone struggling hang on tight and continue to choose Freedom because S.I.N.A.O - Smoking Is Not An Option - Vigilance is key to success so please stick with your precious quit because N.O.P.E - Not One Puff Ever really does work when applied on a daily basis . I really do remember the early days and wks of my quit and I know just how horrid some of the craves are because there were quite a few times that I wanted to throw my hands up in the air and head straight to the grocery store and buy a carton of cigarettes instead of just a pk , I am also a recovering alcoholic by almost 6 yrs but in the beginning of my quit I thought I should buy a 40 ouncer of bacardi rumto go along with the smokes , but thankfully I would go to Dales page instead concerning the first 4 months of quitting smoking ( jonescarps aka dales page ), which always reinforced my resolve to stay quit plus I blogged at least twice a day and sometimes 3 if I was having a rough time but the bottom line was it was up to me whether I relapsed back into the clutches of the cancer sticks and I chose to continue on with my presious quit because I wanted the Freedom to go anywhere , anytime whenever , wherever and however without worrying about where to sneak off to suck on a killer cigarette . Quitting smoking isn't easy by no means but it's absolutely doable and absolutely worth it and we must remember that it's bound to take some time to relearn life without the crutch especially after decades of smoking with just about everything we ever did was wrapped around smoking but I love my new found Freedom and so will you , just be willing , determined and totally committed to succeed and you can and will be successful and each day you get through is another day WON ! and if you've been quit for awhile N.E.F - Never Ever Forget the early days of your quit because Boo on another day ONE ! - keep moving forward and stacking up those splendiferous DOF !

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....
