One lovely calendar month

Today is my first anniversary and I really cant believe it still. I cant think of a single draw back to not smoking. Not one. Could bore the pants off any one for hours though about the plus points. If only they'd let me :)

I also feel very very lucky coz i'm honestly finding it fairly easy. I think this is coz i've read and read and read every thing there is to read about the nicotine habit until I think there's no opinion on the subject i'm not, at least, aware of. In short I'm steeped in knowledge.......clanking about in a big knowledge suit of armour and chain mail that no nico demon could possibly penetrate. Its so obvious and simple a truth that one puff would see me back to my old (40 a day eeep) ways.......that I dont even waste my time entertaining the idea. N.O.P.E works for me.

So....off I trot, oh so happily, into my second smoke free month....and, as ever, offer up my undying thanks to this forum......its people....its support.....and it endless links to massively important information re the nico demon. Hoorah :)

Well done Dippy. It's nice in the penthouse. There are furry pillows and huge vats of non-fattening cake and ice cream. Colin Firth serves drinks at the bar, Johnny Depp gives you shoulder rubs, and you can wipe your feet on your choice of politician when you come in.

So keep going.

Helsbelles. I try to stand up straight and tall as befits a member of this proud, triumphant forum, but you keep folding me over into a giggle sandwich. Colin Firth indeed. Next you'll be telling me that he can only access the bar via a slow walk through the penthouse lake in his lovely wet white shirt. :o :) Anyway i'm taking you at your word and will be chucking the months over my shoulders as I scrabble to get there. :)

Thankyou everyone for your lovely comments.
