Soberjulie

So today is my first day back to work (since Dec. uggg. Government restructuring) But (yay!) I've been called back. So......last time I was here....I was a smoker. My lunch hour was spent in my car, smoking and drinking coffee. It didn't occur to me to pack a lunch today. I am smoke free.....but also lunch free. ;) New habits to form. This is a first......an entire lunch hour and I'm not one of the stinky folks, hiding in their car, smoking.

Currently 1:25am here Can't sleep and I need to be up in 4hours to get ready for work. :(

Bakon. There you are! -15

Oh ya. I'm doing the pledge super-early. I'm working early tomorrow morning and I don't want to miss my pledge. So.......here it comes...... NOPE!

Holy, Tracey.....we could be twins. My story is the same. Im 43, started at 14.....smoked 15-20 a day Geez.

Hat.......yoohooo.......Hat....... :huh:

OOOOhhhhhhhhhhh.............pretty :)

Aren't mandalas so cool? I print them and take them with me to the cottage. I couldn't tell you how many rainy afternoons I've spent with cottage kids, coloring. It's an incredibly peaceful way to spend an afternoon. :) Crayons or pencil crayons? I use pencil crayons for mandalas but even at my age, a brand new box of crayolas makes me giddy. :)

Jim Croce.......I love him :) I begged my daughter to learn "Time in A Bottle" on her guitar. She thought it was the lamest song ever. :p

Keep marching Juan. We are all marching with you :)

Woot woot!! Sending you an internet high 5!

Andrew, 8 months is incredibly fantastic. Thanks for being here for folks like me. :)

Anna, MQ swears that anyone who does the NTAP daily, will never smoke again. And they will be smoke free with a good attitude Meh. What have I got to lose? My dignity? Lol....I lost that a looooong time ago ;)

Awwwww I'm so happy for you :) Have fun with the furball. :)

Awesome. Reading this is like doing another pledge I will never smoke again

It's a NOPE from me on this beautiful Sunday

Yes but we are so damned polite that the animals and birds ask nicely if they can have a nibble first. You just politely decline and you're fine!

So glad you had a smoke-free, enjoyable vacation :)
