Really, month 4, how did that happen?

Month 4, wowser, how did that happen? This weekend I went to a wedding of the mini bus driver that takes my youngest special boy to school. Just my son and I were invited and not knowing anyone the pressure was on. How would my son behave, would anyone talk to me, alcohol etc.? Well, I watched the smokers come and go out the back door - doesn't that smell linger for ever! Avoided alcohol, thought it best. Met a friend I hadn't seen in ages, so all good on the social front, and my little man behaved beautifully. Didn't even want a fag! Omg!

I'm in a very different place to where I was even a month ago, however, I will not let my guard down, my quit is too precious for me on so many levels

So very pleased for you, all is going great, I have a little twinkle in my eye, re the penthouse.

Your little man, how proud you must be.,!!

Brilliant, bring on the next month

well done on getting to month 4...good feeling isn't it? Wait til you get to the next milestone of 6 months...

About time Caroline! :p

I really do think it's a good idea to avoid alcohol until you're absolutely 100% solid in your quit, and that day is becoming ever closer :)

4 months away from your last smoke, it will soon become a dim and distant memory and the craves will disappear for good. Keep on following NOPE and you really can't go wrong, top stuff! :)

Thanks for the lovely comments x yes the room is lovely, just scoffed a bag of sherbet liquorice that was laying around :)
