We are having the first sunny day in a week here today. Temperature is very nice too. That will all change quickly I expect though. Autumn here is as unpredictable as springtime!

I like the idea of bringing your "A" game

And this is exactly what Quit Train is to me and so many others. Matters not the name or who the people are at the foundation of the site. It only matters that there are sites where anyone who wants to quit this horrible addiction have a supportive community to lean on while they are battling the monster that is our addiction! Welcome to Quit Train Kathleen0515 .We salute those who have gone before us and we remain here to support those who are following in our footsteps

I was attending a wedding in downtown Toronto this weekend and the saddest thing I have seen in awhile is a baseball stadium completely empty and not even anyone around it in the heart of a major city that is full of people looking for things to do. As you say ..... if you are still putting on a uniform this time of year .... there's a chance and a hope you will continue. If not, the ,magic is gone until at least next season. For the teams still in it ...... go team go!!

Thanks for dropping in. It great for newbies to hear from people who have been quit for awhile! There's a lot of us in between peeps too (not newbies but not really oldies yet) that are just cruisin' now doing the same thing - not getting complacent I have read a few stories about people who have figured after a year or two, they could have just 1 for old times sake and they have learned a very hard lesson 1st hand! The daily NOPE pledge applies to all of us for the rest of our lives. Whether you make it here or just to yourself each day, doesn't matter, as long as you never take another puff

Tavares & Matthews pulled it out in the end - regardless of absent D-men

LA now tied in Atlanta - WOW! Doesn't look good for the Braves ?

What's the dip you would serve with these little beauties? Must be something that isn't too overpowering but should have a bit of "tang" or "bite" to it? There's a lot you could go with but mine would be a mixture of Mayo, Dijon Mustard then a sprinkle of black pepper, salt then a tiny squeeze of either steak sauce or BBQ sauce. Mix well and serve

Braves are gettin 'er done at home 2-nite so far Of course .... a grand slam doesn't hurt

It is as Linda Thomas said t4c! Linda is fairly new to this place too and the thing she didn't tell you because she may not even realize it herself yet is that she is strengthening her own quit by caring and giving advise to you about your quit! That's how things work here. It's give and take. We take knowledge and advise from others who have gone before us and we leave those same bread crumbs of knowledge behind us for those newer people following in our footsteps. This is why participation here is a valuable use of your time. It will develop and strengthen your own quit while you help others

At least it's gonna be sunshine on Wed.

I hope your hubby does quit as well. That would be great for both of you

Looking forward to seeing that post

The early days do suck - big time but, the good news is that those days don't last all that long in retrospect and the rewards you give to yourself by quitting last forever so just grit your teeth and power through the early days. You will experience any number of quit symptoms and your addiction will try it's best to lure you back to feeding it but you know what? Your addiction doesn't call the shots - YOU DO!! So, just say NOPE each and every day. A day at a time, that;s how it's done. Those single days add up to a life long quit. Remember to stay here as much as you can. Partisipation with other quitters seems to really help most people

I wondered why all the Turkeys up this way were carrying firearms last week
