WITH THE PATCH THAT IS..................(14mg still in my system)  Yesterday I forgot to put one on and about 1pm was wondering what the heck was up when I realized it.  Went to see my oldest daughter and we had to go to a 2 year olds birthday party.  I was there when the nicotene demon hit me out of nowhere...... I just took alot of deep breaths and stayed away from the little ones....... Scared I would act like a crazy woman....Anyway made it thru and glad I got a patch on today.  But think about it.....I made it all day Saturday without a patch on....  I do know when it is time to completely ween off the patch I will be nervous.... I am soooooo proud of all of us. Especially the person that fell off and went at it again  I loved that he went to the store and told them not to let him buy anymore cigs......Good for you.,  We will make this, we just have to stay strong and this our major goal.  I know one day these demons will go away.  Hope everyone has a wonderful Sunday evening.n  Stay strong.
