Fortunately you can walk nearly a mile. All you need to do is give your best. :)

You posted this in the exercise thread. Have you done this yet today? If not, do it and get your mind away from smoking.

You've already quit and are a non-smoker. Smoking benefits you in no way at all. Focus your thoughts on something else... Smoking will just give you something else to worry about. Look how far you've come and focus on how much easier your breathing.

History classes were my favorite and I always seemed to breeze through them with ease. Accounting came easy as did business classes but chemistry was incredibly boring, difficult and I hated every minute of it. Art history was the single most excruciating class I ever took. The first exam I failed in a huge way. Our scores were posted outside the classroom by our student ID number and mine was dead last. 46%. I'll never forget that the girl in front of me said "Oh my God! Look at that score! 46%! How could anybody score that low in Art History?" I looked closer saw it was my score and said "****!!" The girl turned around and looked at me and I said "yep, that's me. Thank me for the curve later." lol :ok: I went to the teacher (who was a very strict German woman) and I asked her for a re-do. I made up some sob story about an ill family member or something and she gave me a week to prepare and re-take and I got a C-. I was thrilled with this grade. What was your favorite class?

Remember what helped you before, lollipops. Do you have any at the ready? Welcome day 4! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2XzFNLJIpUQ

As a parent I would put foot to ass and give my cat whatever cats like. lol Horrifying for the child and for a parent to watch something like that happen to your child. PS, love the security cameras. Give those parents an award for that.

Then I have to assume that you must been a very industrious student. Were you?

Kent State University.

Have you ever been to Lincoln Caverns or Indian Caverns?

Ah Penn State. Have you ever been to the creamery for ice cream? We have a cabin not too far from Penn State.

I was traveling way too much. My last job in the horticulture industry I traveled an awful lot (gone 4 out of every 5 weeks) and did so for 8 years. It got old but I got to see much of the United States and Canada which was nice. The work was a bit stressful as I was doing Patent administration and enforcement for U.S. Patents and well as foreign Patents for clients. I was the Field Coordinator for North America. It was time to relax and live a normal life.

Say whaaaaaaa? 24 more than the dead? Must be the tree pollen getting to you. :scratch_one-s_head: What is your favorite song?

Ohio and Pennsylvania are known for saying pop. What makes you special? You forget where you came from? lol :rofl:

Yeah, mail them to me and I'll start them for you. lol J/K Nope, no more greenhouses. I work in the concrete jungle of Washington, D.C. now :)

Not One Puff, Ever. Period. /story

I pledge to not smoke today, all 47 minutes that are left of it. :)

Okay, but before you moved to Texas, you didn't say "pop" as a general term for soft drinks like Pepsi, Coke, Dr. Pepper, Fanta, Mountain Dew, 7up, Snapple, Faygo, Sprite, Canada Dry, A&W, Shasta, Sunkist Orange, Barq's root beer, Mug root beer, RC Cola, Mellow Yellow, Diet Rite or even Stewarts?

All annuals and an herb garden. I take care of the gardens (I was in the horticulture industry for 20+ years). I built that pond and had it displayed at two businesses before it ended up in my back yard. It took me approximately 45 min to an hour to water everything at my house. I used to own/operate a garden center and wholesale greenhouse business which consisted of over 100,000 sq/ft of glass covered greenhouses so everything single annual in those pics were either started by seed or cutting and grown by yours truly. Prior to that, I was the production manager for an international plant breeder which had 750,000 sq/ft of glass covered houses. Needless to say, I'm very particular on how things are taken care of so I'm the gardener at the ranch (not too much these days though). PS, those pics were from my house in Ohio and few others were from landscaping jobs that I did on the side here in Maryland two years ago.

Do you say "pop" or "soda"?

Eating asparagus will give your urine a strong odor to the point that it will give the air an unpleasant aroma. http://www.dailycal.org/2013/04/17/fun-food-fact-of-the-week-why-asparagus-makes-urine-smell-funny/

Most people are even afraid to try to quit smoking. Take that leap of faith and quit before it's too late. You've already found a great quit smoking support group so what else do you need to quit?

Do you have a question? :on_the_quiet2:
