Reciprocity

Is this @notsmokinjo talk?

I bet your friend will not forget that encounter - lol Good for you in facing that and winning! Shows your commitment is strong and you are on solid ground. And you're right. Being around a group of others with the same commitment as you and who have experienced the same stuff as you are now going through is a powerful tool. That will become even more important down the road as many around you may start taking it for granted that your quit is done and in the past when in reality, you will still have work to do in crafting your new smoke free life. I would definitely post up in the 1 year pledge. You know there are different seasonal triggers that come up with the changing of the seasons. Those can present new challenges you haven't had to deal with yet. That's what makes the 1 year celebration (the Lido party) such a big deal. Doesn't mean you are completely done building your life long quit but it does mean you have likely seen all the triggers you will need to deal with.

You are doing the right thing Vivianne! Avoiding friends that would give you a cig would be pushing it at this early stage. You can and will face that situation later once your quit is stronger and you are making it that way daily now by adhering to NOPE! Trust in the process and stick with NOPE. You will never regret it, that's for sure!

Don't think I have ever seen any Purge movies?

I love those saw movies I also liked the Final Destination movies! Not sure why I'm not getting any cool movies here lately. Think it's the provider I have. We get noting of interest any more unless we pay up big time. Mostly "reality shows"; ha, reality .... right!

No you don't have to but you will get ripped on the exchange rate by some vendors if you hand over US $$. I would have Canadian on hand if using cash money. Credit card well ... the bank behind it will handle the exchange and take a small piece. US $$ are accepted everywhere in Canada. It's just the exchange rate you will get that is the issue. Right now you should be getting minimum $1.30 Canadian for a Greenback. Any less, you're getting hosed!

Wow .... Dodgers gone too now! Very strange night. Astros face their game 5 challenge later today.

We're at home polishing our trophies

Wrong Turn (the original) one of the best

Holly double digits Batman .............. 13 - 1 after 5? Think of the children!

OMG!! I can't see a damn thing even if I wanted to but if Cards are winning, I guess @garry mhudson will be happy?

Nope!

Happy smoke-free day Vivianne

I'm pissed because they're blocking out the Cards/Braves series on TV where I live Pretty much all others are on channels I get but this series is only on the specialty channels and I'm not forking out an extra $25.00/month for those. Even the dodgers are in tough in their series. I wasn't expecting that.

With Stewie, there was no "beating around the bush", so to speak

We all come face to face with the worst our addiction can throw at us during the early days of our quit Juan. You have done that as well now and have beaten your urge to smoke. Well done! Winning these especially hard battles is what strengthens the foundation of our quits. Keep moving forward - you're winning!!

I had that for dinner myself this evening
