Good morning Jillygirl and everyone,love the pic we don't have rain yet but it's on it's way, so a stay indoors day. I'll get some housework done when hubby goes out, i hate it when he gets under my feet
Jonathan, I was really pleased to see your report in last night cos I had started worrying a bit in case you hadn't made it again. You must be so proud of yourself and I bet your family notice the difference as in you probably don't stink of fags any more. Well done!
A bit of a grey and wet morning down south today too so I'm knuckling down and doing a bit of housework this morning. I even did my ironing before I went out yesterday.
I hope you don't overdo it today Jilly and Sue, cos you need to rest up and recuperate a bit.
Thanks so much.... my wife says I am calmer (although I do not feel it most of the time!!) ... yes nice for everyone else that I do not stink of fags (my sense of smell had gone so it didn't bother me that much). Most important thing though is if I had smoked again I would have been so disappointed in myself and this would have made me feel very down + the asthma / lungs were not at all good.
My daughter & son would also have been very disappointed in me if I had gone back to smoking again & I told everybody I know that I had stopped .. sure put myself into a corner / straight jacket !!
Jonathan well done on day 10, i'm glad you got through your stucky patch, your a winner
Andi i think you should jpun me abd jillygirl too, have a chilled out day
Jillygirl i did the same as you, whizzed round the living room while hubby was out, now time to get a cuppa, if anyone wants one, and wrestle the laptop away from my son
Have a great nope day everyone
Good afternoon everyone, you sound like you're feeling a bit better now Sue. Well it's 2.00pm and the aspiring domestic goddess has cleaned the bathroom, swished and swiped the toilet, dusted the bedroom, room rescued the kitchen and dusted and hoovered the living room, plumped the cushions, polished the sofa to a buff look with junk Power Force leather wipes (do not buy), sprayed with Avon cranberry and cinnamon room spray (do buy, smells yummy) discarded dead flowers and needs to go out and buy some fresh flowers that don't drop dead within a day of purchase. Haaaah, time for a nice cup of char and a browse of t'internet. It's looking a little black outside here, hope you're all having a better day weather wise.
Hi sinfree, don't envy you getting to hospital at that time. Do you have far to travel. Anyway good luck. I tell you we do need our own healthunlocked hospital.
It's only about 30 minutes away, might take a bit longer getting back as it will be into rush hour time by then. Yes, good idea we could do with a hospital.
Hi sinfree, you've not half been busy today, I only managed the living room We're meant to get rain now but it's not arrived yet, it is dull and grey though, and humid, which i hate.
You should join the rest of us now and chillax the rest of the day
Am chillin now too. Got to go out though and its raining hard, need something for tea and some flowers. Hubby's going in hospital tomorrow for a nose job. Not really that sure what they're doing, cleaning out sinuses I think but he also has a misaligned septum which causes his nose to be permanently blocked. He's hoping they're not doing anything too rash. Gotta be there for 7.30am, middle of the flipping night lol.
That's awful early, I hope all goes well for your hubby mines is slowly recovering, he had to get paper stitches put on by the nurse though, the outer layer of skin is not healed yet, i think he might have been over doing the knee exercises,now he's not allowed to do any till he goes back.
I hope the rain has gone off before you go out, I hope the sun comes back soon too
oooh that sounds sore. Am sure it will soon get better once he stops moving it around, only trouble is it's going to stiffen up I would have thought, can't win can you.
Ladies, the best investment ever... Anna, my cleaner. Every Monday I come home to a house thats spotless. I just can't understand how she does what would take me all weekend in two and a half hours. All for £25!!
Sounds lavish i know but when you work full time... have three dogs, 5 chickens (that bolt through the back door into the kitchen at every opportunity) and himself who wouldn't know how to put away his tools and more than cleaning the kitchen work top after slicing some bread you'd agree... best spent money ever!!
Jonathan well done Day 10, everyone's so proud of you....
And me, today I won a bottle of wine so I'm off you make some mediterranean veg couscous couple with a glass of chilled vino!!
Oh and Jillygirl, your pics are so funny, they really do make me smile.... keep em coming
I've quite got into this cleaning lark, mind you I only work two days a week. Still its taken me oooh what, 31 years to get around to actually enjoying making my house look nice. Mind you still a long, long way to go to clear clutter. Keep putting that bit off.
Hi Bella, My daughter works for herself as a cleaner, but she never does mine. I know she would if I asked but I don't like to . I just want to sit with a cuppa when she comes to see me. I don't want to waste time watching her clean. So I will wait until I really need her , then ask. couscous and wine. boy you know how to enjoy your day.
I wish! I was actually having a sports massage. Not much pampering about it - more agony at times, really, I've got tight glutes and he gave me lots of trigger point therapy. To be continued next week.

It seemed to get tougher as the day went on .... half of me stuck in the cravings / addiction / madness while the other side of me tried to console that side and say keep going it will all be okay (in the end) .... great I can lie to myself so well .... !!
And an improvement if only 50% is in the .... !!
Being v. positive I am NOT smoking however I feel .....
Have a great evening everyone and thanks for your comments / support, like being told "we are proud of you" - that makes me feel v. good - many thanks.
Best wishes
Jonathan
NOPE

Aup Jonathan, just calm down pal, take some deep breaths, hold your head up high, cos your going to beat that nic this time
Try some of Emjays breathing exercises, cos they do help, or do some press-ups, exercise, cos that helps me, when I've done them, I just feel on top of the world
Night Sue, Jilly, Pete, Andi, Jonathan, bloody hell this is some roll call, it'll be morning in a bit. Have a nice sleep everyone, I'm off for a piece of toast and a rich tea biscuit, I have the calories so am gonna eat them, night.
