Good morning all,

Back to normal in Yorkshire weather wise. Grey and rainy. Never mind at least we don't have to go outside in it for a smoke..

Whatever you have planned enjoy your day. Don't let old Nic get the better of you. Like Jonathan says make it a NOPE day :)

Hello & good morning all

Starting another week as a NON smoker - up & down "yes" but levelling out I think / hope.

Great to be able to breathe, have the capacity to breathe now & let's see what the day does or doesn't bring !!

Best wishes

Jonathan

Non smoker (day 10 underway now since that slip - so a winner)

NOPE

Good morning everyone.

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. :P 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. :)

Morning Andi

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 !!

Have a great day

non smoker

Good morning Andi, Sue and Jonathan. Day 10 Jonathan BIG well done, you cant go back now. :)

Andi don't you over do it with the housework. I think you should join Sue and I today and chill out. :)

I have just whizzed round with the vac and duster whist hubby out. Like you say Sue they are always in your way.

Good morning everyone,

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 :D :D

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. :)

in reply to jillygirl

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 :o :D :D 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 :)

in reply to sue52

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 :)

in reply to sue52

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.

no you can never win, he'll go for his 6 week check up and his surgeon will moan at him for not being further on in his physio :o :D

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 :-)

in reply to Bellabella

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 ya Sinfree, I was just wondering, as you mentioned clearing clutter, did you read the post I posted about - discomfort - ??

andi22 in reply to Bellabella

Hiya Bella, that's just what I need - it seems to take me that long to do the washing up - and there's only me, no animals, and I've got a dishwasher! :D :D

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. :)

Just checking in as we head to 9.05pm

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

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 :) :)
