You are awesome Shay!!!!!! Where are you that there was an ice storm? Yikes.

 

[Shay37]

Aw thanks, Skippy. It''s actually headed here over night. I am in RI. We have a weather advisory as it has rained all day and the temps are dropping. I think Ellen is in MO and they just had one as did my parents in Texas. Same storm no less.

Stay warm and I hope the storm is not too bad!

Hey, Ellen. Did you miss the icestorm or get whacked? Thanks for checking on me.

We got 1 round of ice Friday, and missed the other two predicted rounds.

But the ice we did get managed to do a lot of damage to tree limbs, again. Honestly, between the ice storm in Nov. and now this one, a lot of the trees around here look pitiful. We lost so many on one, we''re going to have to cut it down.

Hope you don''t get it too badly!!

Go you! I heard something about either 21 days or 3 months to break a habit...not sure which is true, but I''m hoping the first!!!

Awesome progress!

 

[poptart]

Good for all of you quitting smoking! Hang in there. DH just recently quit... he said he was finally just ready and it was fairly easy because he actually wanted to quit for good this time. Good luck!

*M*

 

[Mara]

go SHAY! you are a ROCKSTAR!!!! keep it up!

 

[starryeyed]

Shay, good for you! And keep up the good work!

Quitting smoking is incredibly difficult. When you feel like a smoke, do something cardiovascular, or brush your teeth. And whatever you do, don''t hang around with people who smoke! Tell any friends who smoke, you''ll see them in 3-6 months! Sounds harsh, but peer pressure, especially if there are drinks involved, can be deadly!

 

[MINE!!]

WOW.. Congrats everyone for quitting. Stick with it!! IT will happen.. it will get easier. It is nice to know that more of my Pscope family is taking steps to make sure the stick around for a really long time!!!

Gosh you are doing great Shay, just keep on going!!!

 

[Skippy123]

Yippppppeee my dear! We all are so proud!

Keep it up!

 

[Shay37]

Still smoke free. Hmmm, what little splurge should I consider next?

shay

 

[Skippy123]

Oh Shay that is wonderful!!! Rock on

 

[Lorelei]

YIPPEE SHAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Next nice little splurge....

You have the Jhivago now, so I vote for a really fancy moisturizer to complement your new non smoker skin, posh nail polish, matching body lotion in the Jhivago range or.....

You could have a special pot and start saving up for more diamonds with the money you save!

Whatever you decide, make sure you DO splurge and let us know what you get!

That''s awesome Shay, congratulations!!!!!

Checking in Shay to see how you are doing - have you been shopping yet???

Seriously, you should be able to look forward to it getting easier now, get that first month under your belt! 6 months on, I hardly think about cigs now, if I smell them I think they smell terrible now, but I do get the odd fast craving occasionally, but it whooshes through and goes fast.

Hang in there!

Hey - it's a month today????

I call it wanting a cigarette in theory. I think I might, then I smell one, and think um nope. It makes me kind of nauseous.

I am doing really well. I got some CoQ10 wrinkle cream from Serious Skin Care that I just love. (splurge and it was on sale) Woohoo!! When I saw you suggest the cream and it was already on its way after suggesting perfume that I had already bought, I''m thinking she''s psychic or we''re twins separated by the pond.

29 days or four weeks down, and counting, girls.

IrishAngel, Ellen, Kaleigh, Deb, diamondsrock, Skippy, You guys are the best. You have totally helped me be strong. Lorelei, just knowing that you''ve been there helps so much. It''s amazing how little I''m thinking of ciggies lately. Today I had two pieces of the gum, so not doing bad. I was afraid that I would just substitute one addiction for another, but it''s not working out that way.

[Skippy123]

Shay you rock!!! Awesome news!!!! Keep it up and do remember to reward yourself; you are doing great! I am glad you splurged on the cream
