And Pinky... thanks for the "Doreen's" tip... I will definitely try it out... and yes, I did mean "Irma".... not sure why Isabel came out of the keyboard. I assume you are from that area... glad to hear that it's mostly cleaned up and no real issues to deal with.

I'm with you, Bakon... 3 of my daughters live in the Columbus area... between 2 and 3 hrs south of me. They want to know when we are going to move down with them . (1daughter and 4 of our granddaughters still live "up here".) I told the ones in C-bus, that if I pack up and move South, the truck isn't going to stop anywhere in Ohio... I will be looking for blue water and sand before the brake lights come on.... they will then have to drive south to visit me.

Obviously you have not been around too long or read many or the previous posts where help was indeed asked for, and advice given. By your own admittance , you don't need any help nor have inquired on how to handle cravings, but many others have...including me , early in my quit, and excellent advice was (and is) givin. The daily N.O.P.E. pledge is a commitment each person makes to themself . When advise is asked for it is willingly given by many of us. If they feel like they want to find answers for themselves, the search function will turn up a multitude of posts dealing with their questions. Every aspect of quit smoking is discussed anytime someone asks.... There is a whole section of sticky posts at the top of a couple of the forums dealing with many of the questions new quitters are faced with, and in addition, many videos are also available to help educate anyone looking for more answers. I feel you painted us with a pretty broad stroke ...just because you didn't ask or receive the advice you mentioned, does not mean it isn't available for someone who is truely struggling.

-16 good morning D!

In the middle of January, we have reserved a condo on Marco Island (Fl.) We will be going with our daughter, son-in-law and new (4 month old) granddaughter. Jodi (daughter)generally stays on the Gulf side when they visit...usually Sanabelle Island, but the last few times they have gone, they have stayed in Marco Island, and love it. We ( me and the wife) have always stayed ocean side, around West Palm Beach-Pompano Beach area,so this will be a new experience for us. Marco island got hit pretty hard with hurricane Isabel, and the place Jodi usually rents is still damaged, so it's not available. I could care less about the condo...I'm sure they are all nice,... I'm there for the sun and sand! ... Unfortunately a week is not very long and I will have to return to the cold and snow of northern Ohio MUCH too soon. anyhow...to keep it relevant to the forum.. ( ) ... I love spending all the money I do on little vacations instead of cigarettes and Dr. bills...
