Remember too that smoking triggers will come out of nowhere as seasons change. You mentioned it is really hot there now with monsoon season coming. Perhaps this is the first time you have faced this seasonal change since quitting and so memories of what you used to do at this time of year are creeping into your head. You have already built a tool chest of ways to ignore these sudden cravings so put those to work. Once you get by these seasonal change cravings, you will never have to worry about them in the future. because you will have already dealt with them. Keep going forward. You are getting to where you want to be. Permanently smoke free!

They are fighting for their corporate survival in any and all ways they can, no matter who they hurt or kill along their way .... like they always have. The Who did a song called; Won't Get Fooled Again! There was a lyric near the end of that song "meet the new boss, same as the old boss" - applies very much to big tobacco unfortunately 😞

OO

Way to go Claire!! 2 Years seems like a lifetime from where you were as a smoker. A healthier, richer and generally fabulous lifetime Enjoy your freedom!

Huge congrats Dizzy for reaching that 1st month smoke free!! The beginning is always the hardest as you learn how to navigate your way along the pathway that takes you to lifelong freedom. Keep up the great work. It does gradually get easier and easier from here on.

Nope!

18 Morning (although it's certainly not morning anymore where you are )

Congrats on 7 months smoke free Kdad! Hope you celebrate the achievement and keep protecting what you have built. Start planning for how you will reward that 1 year mark because it will be here before you know it

I left my heart in San Francisco

All those people and just 1 train? That's nuts!

Yes, I think so but not very familiar with Columbus or how big it is or what it's noted for. I would have thought Cleveland for an Ohio sports team but .... apparently not?

@bakon Time to rip it down & rebuild? Don't feel too bad though. It could be worse. You could be cheering for Tampa, lol. How do you lose 4 straight in the first round after ending the season more than 20 points ahead of every other team in the league? And to top it off, you lose to a team from Columbus?? I don't even know where that place is let alone why that put a hockey team there! That's just bizarre!!

I just wanna go home
