Way to go Pumpkin! A cigarette would look so out of place in your hand. Hang in there, stay strong and better days are on the way. Best wishes.

Day Four for you !  Congratulations.  Most nicotine has left your body !

 Day Four of Quitting Smoking

 

Hang in there, Pumpkin.   Do let us know how you are and if you are having any issues.

Hello. I'm ok. Had my first real urge today....because of something that stressed me so the whole "whats the point?" question came to my head. But anyway I came home without buying any cigarettes.

[Sazerac]

Excellent, do not go back to smoking.  What is the point in smoking ?  

Spending gobs of money to put your health and life in peril ?

 

Gather and nurture your power as it is wrenched from addiction

and be kind to yourself.

[Sparkles]

I think it was my addict reaction to another addiction....an idiot of a man that I was seeing and cut contact with some time ago. I saw him in the supermarket and hid like a child.

[Sazerac]

No shame in hiding like a child from freakin' idiots !  

Glad you didn't smoke.

Nurture this new super power you are amassing in every crave, every trigger you conquer.

 

and Reward yourself !

It's a kind of mulberry tree. I wanted something to provide shade in the summer and this was recommended.  Time will tell!

[Sazerac]

Mulberries are delish !  and the leaves are a Silk Worm favourite. Pretty spring blossoms.

 

Wine !  Mulberry

I don't think it's a fruiting kind unfortunately. But it has very large leaves for me to put my hammock under!
