So maybe it's a game like golf?

Like wild pig game or like Monopoly game?

@notsmokinjo, you too have brought me to tears now. I'm honored to be your bassman and I know you ARE already someone else's bassman. I'm so glad I could be there for you and everyone else who needed a hand. But please remember that I too need you guys I've said many a time that no one knows better than we do, what we're going through and that's what makes these boards work. I love you my partner in crime

Could I just ask a board if they get bored?

Should I try to get board to see if I get bored?

Beazel you always make me cry from the nice things you say. I agree it must have been fate. And those of us who have traveled this journey have a special bond that no one and no distance can ever take away from us. I love you too my friend

No I'm not much into being cold. Isn't that one of the perks of living here?

It totally does. Sometimes it's hangover Saturday too, is it ok though that I don't use a duvet?

Begins with a single step. I took that single step May 29, 2016. The thing is I knew way before that day that I needed to quit smoking. Heck my doctor had told me I had 10-12 years left to live if I didn't quit just a month prior. He was my replacement doctor for my doctor who had moved on to other things and I instantly didn't like him. He was so mean but also so honest, I knew I needed to quit. My breathing was suffering. I was wheezing and the phlegmy cough, yuck. But then the addict in me would say it's all good, my dad's side die in their early 60's so that too will be my fate. I'm ok with that, after all there's a lot of people up there I'm eager to see. So what made me quit that Sunday May 29, 2016? A few things really. My poor hubby just hated the phlegmy cough and the wheezing. I also was mad at my Dr. for claiming my demise when in fact he had no way of knowing. So I quit. But I didn't tell anyone, with the exception of telling my hubby at about the 28 hour mark. I figured as long as I didn't tell anyone I wouldn't let anyone down. I had no plan, no procedures in place, nothing. The first couple of days weren't as bad as I thought. By day 3 though my body was jonesing for its fix. My tongue was sore so I Googled it which led me to my future message board. The next symptom for me was bleeding gums then insomnia. As each of these happened Google led me to the same board of people who had experienced the same things I had. So knowing that I wasn't that special snowflake eased my mind immensely. But then something else happened. As I began to read the replies to the various posts I was reading I found that I wasn't dwelling on my quit. I was getting a reprieve from the 24/7 thoughts of smoking. So I read. Discussions, celebrations, socializing. I read it all and was glued to the board I had found yet remained a lurker there. Then one day a member posted an SOS and I got to watch everyone rally to help this member through. I registered right then and there and an old pharte named Bassman was the first to welcome me and friend me. I wasn't alone in my fight anymore......

Is a duvet day like my hang over Sunday?

More of a chant don't you think?

@notsmokinjo do we care? And @WeegieWoman wasn't that song a little one note?

Exactly, so do you think you're missing anything by not seeing Jerry Springer?

No it's not unless you like to watch total chaos?

Wasn't Jerry Springer's audience much more routy?
