Nearly there....

I can't believe that one month today I will be in the penthouse!!! The last few months have flown by and I feel better than ever. Healthwise, if I can get through the rest of this calendar year without pneumonia or pleurisy it will be a first for 10 years!!! I turn 40 later this year and I can't wait as I always said I wanted to be a non smoker by then!

We all know quitting ain't easy, but it really does get easier. I still think about smoking every day, but it's just a passing thought now - not a real crave. I seem to have one or two real craves a month these days but they aren't too bad.

So to all those starting out, stick with it - it really becomes soooo much easier!!

Good luck all

Sarah

Will be a triumphant and very loud welcome awaiting you Sarah :D

If you pause a moment and listen you can probably hear over yonder hill excited voices and the tinkling of beer and wine glasses- as well as Sarah Lou's loud and slightly screechy laugh :D-bit of a party setting set up for you and Penthouse parties are serious affairs that take a month to prepare :D:D

Apologies for the screechiness. Wait until you hear me sing! :rolleyes::p xxx

Thank you!! You can't watch the party!! You have to be at the party - I'm sure we can have the party in the penthouse hallway so everyone can take part and peek in the door to see what it's like inside the penthouse!! This time next year we will ALL be inside!!

Nearly there Sarah. You have done so well to keep going as I recall you finding the early months pretty hard. It's fantastic that your health has improved so dramatically. Looking forward to meeting you very soon. Well done:)

Thanks Una! I had a few hairy moments in the first few months I guess!
