Off to the specialist. NOPE!

I smoked my last few cigarettes sitting on my back step ,crying I was given a ultimatum... Smoke or face amputation... I was devastated... All my other attempts to quit has failed...but...I had to try something... I was so desperate to succeed.. Tony had already been diagnosed with emphysema... And I still smoked...because I believed I couldn't quit... I had been given a old battered I pad to play about on,as I was not savvy...I decided to Google anything on the internet,that may give me some help I desperately needed.. I can across a forum...thought what have I got to lose ...somehow I managed to sign in ....and watch and listen.... A kind lady ...sent me a message today hello ...I explained to her I couldn't give me a name a ticker nothing...this lady took me under her wing ,set me up and running...I will always be in Nancy,s debt...my fairy godmother... It was a while before I posted I just watch and learned...I didn't sleep at all for a few weeks I read instead.... I Did my Daily NOPE...the days turned into weeks then into months...there was plenty of up and downs ,but I knew I had to plough on ,and as I was assured my those with more quit ..it would pass.... I was so proud to reach the Lido Deck....and I still feel that sense of pride ,4 yrs later.. Joining a forum ,posting ,making friends ,has made the difference to my having another failed quit ..to my success.. I have also been taught some niffty PC skills... I love being smoke free...and all the folks who follow me ,I want them to feel it too I wish to Thank Everyone who has sat on the train...newbies not so newbies ..oldies... You have helped me continue on my journey ..and I hope i have helped you in yours.. And all the folks who jump on the train in the future... You can do it...I did !!!! Xxxx

Good morning lovely NOPErs I have been sitting here reading all about the Scottish wildcats (aka Highland Tigers) and how they are the most endangered mammals in Britain because today is International Cat Day... yep @catlover this one is ligit...so thid year the focus of ICD is the Scottish Wildcat urban spread and crossbreeding have reduced their numbers to around 100 in the wild ? . Ok... back on track... let the cats do the talking, they are the animal masters of NOPE. NOPE .... I control what goes into my body, not a stupid addiction.

^^ I hear you about the salt! Due to my BP issue, I now buy unsalted potato chips, crazy huh?

Drinking cold water and sitting in air conditioned luxury on a break from hacking back the jungle in courtyard. You must know how much I love my machete. thwack thwack thwack. 9:30 am heat index a balmy 97 (36c) humidity 75% only 8 more weeks of this. I love sweat. It is nice and slippery and since I have (mostly) cut out salt after BP fuckedupness, I can lick my sweaty upper lip like a salt lick. That is how much I miss salt and also slightly perverse, I suppose.

Meh, i dont mind being an idiot if i got to spend time with buttocks and mr pig, its worth it

NOPE!!!

Beazel, you sure have come a long way from that self-doubting girl I remember way back when. Happy to see that you made it!
