We woke up to a winter wonderland yesterday morning with 10 1/2 inches of snow down and a snow day for the kids well we're waking up to another snow day with 12 to 14 inches predicted by the end of the day but we're used to this even though I detest winter . Hubby headed off to work , my daughter switched jobs last week so she'll be dropping Mason off around noon to stay the night and I'll get him off to school tommorrow, there should be school surely! as long as we don't lose power I was watching the news on TV and just shut it off because the satellite is screwed up ugh . I used to travel in all of this weather but not anymore so now I worry about hubby but his job is less than 10 minutes away but my daughter and her man works 40 minutes away so I worry and this morning on the highway it's 110 kms an hr normally but the news broadcast is saying that the traffic is going at a snails pace at 50 kms an hr but I won't smoke over it or anything else because it's out of my control so I will pray for traveling safety for everyone and get on with my day and hopefully keep my power . we all have stressers and situations that we could use for an EXcuse to put off quitting smoking if you haven't yet quit you might just as well read everything you can about quitting and remaining quit , there's a wealth of information here to help strengthen your resolve to do so because there's never ever going to be a good time to quit so why not bite the bullet and set up a quit date and take back your life while you are still vertical and if you have quit and are struggling , don't give up and relapse because it'not going to solve anything and it's probably going to make you miserable and dang it all , you'd have to start back to day ONE , instead choose life ,chin up and make the right choice , choose another day WON instead because whether or not we smoke life happens and to me smoking only adds to whatever is happening so choose to remain smoke free ! - N.E.F. - Never Ever Forget -  I remember my early days and wks of quitting and I never want to go back EVER ,nobody needs to see a day ONE again only days WON!

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....
