I've come over all musically inclined...

Good morning all!

So moving up a forum today (yay!) flipped some switches in my head and reminded me of two songs which I've not listened to in years, but which perfectly describe how I feel today.

Firstly, and perhaps most obviously, its One Week by The Barenaked Ladies.

Secondly I came up with "I'm feeling good" by Nina Simone, although I prefer the Muse version.

One week simply because I'm in day 8 of my quit now and I'm feeling good because, well, I am and also because the lyrics perfectly descibe how I feel right now about my quit in relation to my life: "Its a new dawn, its a new day, its a new life for me, and I'm feeling good".

And who can argue with that? :)

In other news, after the emotional rollercoaster of my first week, today, I woke up feeling......normal. No massive high, but crucially no hideous low like the last two days, so a definite improvement :D

Good luck to everyone else and Caroline: I'm heading to your thread now :)

Rob

Well done Rob, sounds like you really have your head in a good place today. Have to agree with your song choices however i would have to go with the Nina version.

glad to hear that you woke feeling normal, i think i have almost forgotten what normal is, i am having huge dreams still almost every night.

I have just gone into the month, and let me tell you it feels great and i know you'll be here soon.

Hope you have a great day.
