I am very pleased- it's not been the easiest of weeks, but i think it's more down to family stuff etc, and me feeling very low about it all ( hence my posts dried up a bit- no point depressing you all!)
The family stuff is ongoing, but I think the feeling of needing to go and get a pack of cigs to relieve the stress is going- I was dreading work last night knowing how tempted I'd been during the week, yet it was all okay!
A good workmate was very encouraging last night- and my other half was lovely and encouraging too!!!
I am pleased that despite the tempting moments i have remained strong and not given in to that little devil sitting on my shoulder!
It's a beautiful sunny day, and although I had hardly any sleep( I have a toddler who's just discovered how to open the bedroom stairgate!!) I think it's a perfect Sunday to take said toddler to the woods and have muddy, sunny wellyboot time
Wishing you all a lovely Sunday xxx

Well done in not smoking especially with the 'family stuff' going on.
I TOTALY get you about the young family thing Our youngest , bless her wee cotton socks, is not sleeping that well at all at the moment. A combination of teething, the cold and not just not being able to settle at nights is meaning a max of 4 hrs sleep a and with these early starts at work...zzzzzzz.
Its a sunny day here too . I am envious of your day out with the kids. Ah well I am off tomorrow at least..
Welcome to a lovely sunny Sunday.. Well done Andy and Minnie you are leaving me behind again and moving into weel 3 but hey I will soon be with you again.
I'm day 12 today, had a rubbish day yesterday because i had a headache, felt stuffy and felt a bit sick BUT that may be due to completing my first full week back at work after being off since before christmas with a broken leg !! Maybe doing a full week just took it out of me, still feel a bit 'off' today though so perhaps them toxins are all leaving my body too and making me feel a bit off or perhaps as nic said yesterday i may just have a bit of a cold anyway.
Dunno why i was waffling on there, anyhows yes minnie you should be sooo proud of yourself and really need to give yourself credit, you have such a lot to deal with and yet you are coping so well, there will not be any stress put to you that you cant deal with as a non smoker as you have proved to yourself this week. Keep strong and remember a fag changes nothing in a positive way. I find my mouth 'tastes' awful every morning, almost as bad as a smokers o i hope that stops soon.
Have a lovely day and will meet you either later on or in weel 3, keep strong both of you. xx
Didn't get to take littley to the woods, as he wasn't feeling too great, so we planted bulbs in the garden instead.. he enjoyed that too though
Luckily today was a much easier day than the last 2- I thought i had more resolve than to linger over the ciggy counter when passing( weirdly it doesn't bother me when I'm working there!! I have also directed some of my customers to this web site>grin<)
But although i cried a lot, and thought i *needed* a smoke, i was helped by my OH and friends, and didn't crack <big smile>
We have put an extra fixing on the kidlets stairgate, so I'm hoping tonight I'll get more than 3 hours sleep too!!
Well done all you other quitters... you're all doing fab!
See you in WEEK 3 tomorrow.. whoo, never imagined I'd be there when i started posting on this site! I used to read week 2 and week 3 posts with awe
Thank you SO much for the support over the last few emotional days xxx
