A woman possessed......

Just been thinking about Day 1 of my quit....thought I'd share it with you Day 1'ers........

I'm a nurse and on Day 1 I had applied a patch (to my arm) on this particular day I was in school with my colleagues immunizing Year 8 pupils....

I was really pleased to be distracted, then out of the blue....I felt something slide off my arm....and land on the floor :eek:now according to my colleagues I let out a squeal and fell to my knees like a woman possessed....bemoaning the fate of my squidged patch :rolleyes: I had to go home after the session and reapply another one!!!!! Now I'm chuckling to myself writing this ......but honestly it felt like my world had ended at the time.......:eek:

So guys hang in there......it really does get better...small steps at a time.....
