This quitting is contagious. I am too busy to stay online today, the kids are home because school was cancelled because we are supposed to be having a snowstorm. That is just what we need in the middle of getting ready for Christmas. I am cranky today so I think I will go lay down and get back up again in a little while.

I wanted a cigarette all day long, arrrrrgh, I thought these days would be over. I'll get through it. I am going to bed early so tomorrow will get here and this will be all gone.

You just think you want one, Llkoolaid, but you really don't. You know why? Because you don't smoke.

Thanks but don't worry I don't have any intention of giving in when a bad day hits. I am fine today, I was very surprised at how bad it was. It reminded me of the first week, I kept waiting for it to pass. Oh well maybe it is for the best, the rest of us quitters can be prepared for bad days to come and they can get through them too. I forgot that this would happen , I remember now that this happened for a few months when I quit before. It feels good though because I won. Thanks for the support, gotta go survivor will be on in 15 minutes.

Merry Christmas non-smokers (and everybody else, of course). This will be a special Christmas for you. In fact, you will probably be able to place things in time by counting back to this Christmas. Oh yeah, that must have been 2001, the year I finally quit smoking.

Llkoolaid, how is your mom doing?

My mother is doing good, thanks for asking, she is having a little trouble with the stress, she is helping my brother raise his kids because their mother walked out on them, the kids are having a lot of trouble because of it and they were hard to handle before this happened. My mother is 66 and this is hard on her but she is where she wants to be. I ask her how she is doing every few days and she says she has had some bad cravings but she can do it. I keep telling her that she is trough the worst of it and my kids keep telling her how great she is and praising her for it. This helps her a lot. She has tried to quit many times just like the rest of us but usually didn't make it through a day, I think she is impressed with herself that she has made it this far. This is so hard for her. My mother has had a hard life and she is one of those women that spends her time trying to make people like her, thats why we praise her so much, I think it works better than telling her that she is doing it for herself and her health.

Thanks for caring Juju2bigdog, you are probably our number one supporter on this thread and I can't tell you and everyone else how much we new non smokers appreciate the help. This thread is starting to fade out and I would abandon it all together if it were not for you great supporters and I am hoping that the others that have quit are just too busy because of the holidays. I don't want to stop this thread because I think it played a big role in my success at quitting and I am hoping it helps some others. I always try to find a minute each day to check in, it is like a security blanket for me. Thanks for all your help.

<pins on #1 badge and struts around for a bit> And, the funny thing is, it's not even a normal thing for me to do. I just posted once to be polite and supportive, and then somehow I got sucked in and kept coming back.

Glad your Mom is still hanging in there, Llkoolaid. It has got to be an even bigger task for her than it was for you. She has been addicted longer.

We have to keep the thread going for Fruitbat, who should be gearing up to quit whenever she recovers from her Ryder truck ordeal.

I haven't posted lately, but read the read each day. It's great to see the growing number of nonsmokers, and hope more are able to join in.

Kool, War, Kool's mom, Dilli (wtg Dilli!), Franny, Chance and Dahli--great job!!!!!!!!

Bat, it will be great adding you to the ranks of the nonsmokers--best of luck to you with the adventure.

You guys are great!!!!!!!!!

Based on the comments of others, it seems I've been thaht way long before the approach of Christmas.

Oops, Tess is correct! Dilli's assistant is also a nonsmoker!! Sorry for the oversight.

I still say becoming a nonsmoker is about the best present you will get this year.:)

Hey ya'll!! Do you realize you've made it through half the holidays as non-smokers!! In just a few short days you are going to start the new year as non-smokers for the first time in ages. What a remarkable accomplishment. I am in awe.

HI All!
I keep dropping by here to see how everyone is doing, and it's great to see a New Year coming with all these new Non Smokers. My step-mom is doing great - going into week three and making it through Christmas feeling fine without the noxious weed in hand.
Congrats all and I hope your mom is doing good Llkool - I can't wait for my mom to get in here too!!

My mom is also hanging in there.

I haven't been able to get on-line until now, I don't know what is wrong with my netscape so I tried internet explorer and I got on here but I can't get around as good on it.

I am doing fine now, I am glad Christmas is over, it was too hectic and I am looking forward to a nice boring winter.
