LB, Very nice! Your interpretation is right on! Thanks for writing and sharing!

LB, I had thought you wrote that up untill the end! I will say it was a nice find and thanks for sharing!

TPAM would be a excellent comedian doing stand up!

Nice job MQ! Should of got some marshmallows too!

TPAM got a hair cut!

Always thought you were from down under but anyway have a great time at home with friends and family! I heard the Uk is not a bad place, lots of good people like yourself from there! Enjoy the holiday!

You have a choice Evelyn and go with the choice that is in your heart, then stick with it!

Good to hear that Rachael, You can use you time to keep helping others and keep playing it forward! Nice job on the quit and the post!

Nope from me for today!

I can relate Ladybug but not to the solon thing. Since my quit I have been doing a lot of personal revamping. A lot of physical stuff but a lot of things around me I am changing to go with the new me! Basically turning my life upside down and starting over for the most part! Nice post!

Very nice post Jonny! What is probably even worse is when the triggers camouflage themselves too! One type of trigger could have 3 or 4 different associations with it! (Arguments, pissed off, mad, bills) That's why you always have to be on your guard!

isn't it nice when things work out for the good unexpectedly!

I have to agree with the sarge. When I used to smoke there was a lot of stuff I liked about it including the taste. After saying that, I liked a lot of things that were bad for me! Now I have cut out about 90% of the bad stuff and replaced it with good stuff! The biggest and worst one was smoking, that was the first to go! Still working on smaller ones like donuts! ;)

Jackie, Congratulations on a truly non smoking day because you did not even think about it! Like Markus said, You have arrived!!!!!!

TPAM always has interesting avatars! What the heck is that Tracey? :o Looks like a chicken suit! :D :lol: lol

TPAM loves taking her dog out on walks!

Two big triggers all in the same week! You are now in control of your own quit! You have tested yourself and won, Congratulations Tracey! I bet your nieces are very proud of you too! Very good week for you!

TPAM has a couple of dogs!

Hi Paula, how about a loan! Lol Great to here about an additional benefit from quitting! You should be able to get yourself something really nice with that! Good for you!

Hello Sarah, missed your welcoming so, Welcome glad you are taking back your life! Its not an easy road to travel, lots of bumps along the way, but with each bump you overcome your strength gets stronger and something else happens, you feel pride and a sence of accomplishment because not a lot of people can do what you are doing! Other good things like breathing better, feeling better, whiter teeth, sence of smell returns, ect, ect, lots of good things also happens. You have a lot on your plate is sounds but deal with each thing one at a time like your quit, one day at a time! You came to the right place to start and your mum im sure is very proud of you too! Best of luck to you!!!

Good Friday nope from me
