Mee

That can't be possible. Why would your hubby call you so much. He loves to talk to his sweetie!?

Gee sounds cute. Can we have a picture?

Happy Birthday to You!!! Have a wonderful day!

Don't like either of them cooked but love them raw and in salads. Between the two, I like raw peas the best.

Nope!

Oh this is me right now. Sometimes I wonder who that person is. I can be pretty ornery some days but then I cut myself some slack. I kind of look at that meanness as a way to turbo charge me through the crave. At the end of the day I did not smoke and that is what counts.

Hoping you weren't one of the casualties. Praying for all the families this will affect. Also praying things could still change their course. Nope for me!

Just watched The Christmas Chronicles, with Kurt Russel, on Netflix. He made the cutest darn Santa. I thoroughly enjoyed this movie. Laughed, cried and just got into the Christmas mood.

Nope!

Knew you were hot!

I can relate. I have two puppies. We have had many dogs but these two are a true challenge. Tis The Season ';

I wish we could get rid of the cable service. It is the worst. My husband is checking into the streaming thing but we would still need the service for internet.

Congratulations Jo! Celebrate your milestone - you deserve it. Thanks for all you do on this forum and for supporting me on my journey.

I feel like the bestest quit story ever. I was feeling like I was at the lowest point of my life. Not only have you encouraged me to get my life back, you have made me feel worthy of that life. I wish I could reach across the miles and hug you all.!

Nope!

Wow. Very pretty. Lights do get me in the mood. Thanks for sharing.

Well, I am usually a slow bear at things and I really thought I would have to be put in a coma to quit. Boy you guys really got me thinking and guided me through it. I don't know what my attitude showed in my first posts but you all knew the words to keep my attention. Wow, next thing I knew I am almost 4 mos. I have no thoughts of not hanging around. Of course I am waiting for bakon to post a selfie lol.

Well Leon, I have never vaped but was a smoker for 42 years. I have googled vaping and, from what I read, vaping is not really a healthy alternative. There are particles that cause cancer and some of the flavors have toxins and chemicals in them. Seems to me you are trading one addiction for another. My suggestion to you would be to stop smoking and vaping altogether.

Nope!

Hi Leon, If you are really serious about quitting smoking, this is the place to do it. There is so much information and support here. As said by others, you just have to stop. I can tell you it will be uncomfortable for a couple of weeks but then it is just a matter of redirecting your brain. I smoked for 42 years and tried many attempts to quit. I finally found the strength and support on this forum. You can do this. It is the best thing you can do for your life.

Am definitely taking a lazy day today. Wanted you to know your orange/cranberry relish was such a hit. I think it topped grandma's sticky buns. Yes, my son wants to host Xmas also. Maybe this will be our new family tradition.

It went very well. I actually did not have time for smoky thoughts the day of the event. I do, however, find myself pretty crabby still, when I am under pressure. Fortunately, my husband would rather have a crabby nonsmoker and still loves me . I do think it was a little more work having it at my son's home and I am really tired today. My son spent all his time building his dining room table, which he finished the night before. When my son is focused on something, everything else suffers. Mom spent two days, going over to his house to help him organize and clean for the big event. He probably will never have cleaner toilets. I did find it very hard relinquishing the turkey rights. I laid in bed worrying about him stuffing the bird properly and it took every ounce of power in me not to get up at 5:00 a.m. and go over to his house to help him stuff it. Everything turned out great. Food was wonderful, and everyone behaved themselves. One holiday down, only one more to go! I'm attaching a picture of my son's table. Pretty proud of that kid. Lighting was not the greatest but I think you can see enough of it. He now wants to build the chairs to go with it. My elderly dad is at the corner of the table. Brother-in-law in the doorway.

I am on my way. Don't leave without me.
