Good morning everybody I hope the weather is still being kind to you
Weekends, although I love them are one of the most hardest times for me to stay quit and have found out, that to keep my quit thoughts in one place in my 1 brain cell, this helps me when I get the urge to smoke, cos there all at hand when i need them Try to memorise the reasons you are quitting for, then when the cravings come, just bombard them with your reasons to quit
Jonathan, this is what I meant about '' collected '' as in having all your reasons for quitting, ready and waiting to pounce on them cravings when they come, you've got a small army behind you, telling you NOPE
Please keep letting us know how your feeling, what you are going through cos I know that i couldnt express my feelings like that just wish I could
Rite you flippin lot, thats enough of me gassin on, brrrmm whoops, sorry, if you have a window thats closed, then open it now please I assure you , it wll be for your own benefit

Good morning Pete , and everyone else. A few clouds around but still very hot and sunny. Well shopping this morning and child minding this afternoon. Hope everyone has a NOPE day. p.s. 2 weeks for jonathan.
Good morning Pete, Jillygirl and everyone, It's cloudy here and not as hot, I'm glad to say, having a relaxing day today then get my hubby's stuff ready for him going to hospital tomorrow, 3 days peace and quiet for me then, yipeeee
I think it was the hottest night yet for me. I woke up about 1 and couldn't get back to sleep then some noisy neighbours (obviously had a few) spent the next couple of hours outside chatting and playing yuk music. I gave up tossing and turning just before 7 and got up. I was just about to make my tea when the phone rang and a friend of mine had just fallen over and had a suspected broken wrist. Helped her get dressed and dropped her at the hospital and now waiting to hear from her.
She's just phoned to say that her wrist is broken in more than one place and she'll need an operation. (She was on her bed trying to get a spider on the ceiling when she fell over. )
Jonathan, congratulations on getting to 2 weeks today.
I must have a practice to get the hang of doing pictures on this site. The above works on the hilight/view route.
huh, tell me about noisy neighbours, some muppet thought it would be a really good idea to put their wheely bins out for the bin men at 1.15am on Friday morning grrrr - trundling them around at that time of the day tsk. Still, at least it didn't take them 2 hours to do it.
Good afternoon to everyone. A little bit cooler and cloudier here today. Good luck for your hubby in hospital Sue. Perhaps you could have a little snooze on a breezy beach this afternoon andi to catch up on your missed zzzzzz's last night, mind you its a bit late now, its tea time. I've spent the last two days at work in my nice air conditioned reception, so missed out on the really hot weather.
I've been child minding too today Jilly. We had to take my daughter shopping cos she can't find her way there then we looked after baby while she hit the shops. Just found out we have both 3 year old grandson and baby next Saturday afternoon until Sunday morning as daughter is going to a wedding. Eeeeek, I feel massive cravings coming on already at the mere thought of it. I don't like looking after 'ittle babys, they scare me. I will be up all night staring into the cot making sure she's still breathing
I wish i'd been with you in your air conditioned work I've been melting the past few days at least I'll get a few days peace when hubby has his knee replacement, and the telly all to myself, that will make a change
I know what you mean about looking after babies, I get like that when I'm just watching Nairn for a couple of hours hope you have a great NOPE evening

Hi sinfree, what a daunting feeling looking after baby and a 3 year old. I am sure you will be fine.
Good evening all. It did cloud over here a bit at times today and was quite breezy but the wind didn't do anything to cool us down. I went to the beach this afternoon and the sea was lovely and rough. My friends wimped out of going in today.
Had my friend with the broken wrist round for a cuppa this evening and then fed her. She didn't realise how hungry she was and had struggled to do toast for her lunch. It turns out that she fell off a chair not the bed - one bone in the arm broken and one in the wrist is in bits. We hope they operate asap cos we're going on holiday together in September and she's like to be swimming again by then.
I will go on yesterday's post as not senior enough to start my own day yet and also didn't add anything yesterday !! Well it is good news at 12 noon today as it will be exactly 2 weeks since I QUIT - hooray ....
Things should be easier after this !!!!!!!!!!!??
Have a great day everyone & soooooo glad to be a NON Smoker.
Best wishes from
Jonathan
NOPE ever again
P.S. Do not want to go through another 2 weeks like that again - ever again
(Sorry tone of bricks should have beed ton of bricks - but don't need to worry about being illiterate as well at this stage in the quit)
