First of all thanks to Pete and sinfree for last nights comments,got a lump in my throat. (no pete it wasn't your lumpy gravy )
Tuesday and bright and sunny at the moment.
All you members who are just starting on your quit journey why not do like the picture says and make a list of reasons to stop smoking and the benefits you will gain. When you get a craving look at the list.I know Pete did that to help him. or simply bob on this site and have a chat or a moan we don't mind. So stay positive and have a lovely Tuesday.

Not been on for a while as I've been baby sitting for a few days, to say It tired me out is the understatement of the century Nairn is gorgeous but demands so much attention I never got a minute to myself.
Jillygirl I agree with Pete and sinfree, you are an amazing woman Making up a list of reasons to stop smoking is a great idea, I had one too, it's still on my fridge as a reminder, it really helped me stay focused.
I hope you all have a great smoke free, craving free day
Hi Sue, lovely to hear from you. How I envy you with Nairn. I love my two granddaughters to bits , but at 12 years ad 8 years old they are a bit big to cuddle in your arms. However I do get plenty of Grannie hugs, thats what the eldest calls them. Thank you for your comment but I aren't any different to you and the others your all amazing . well busy afternoon coming up got roped in to helping (not playing) bingo. as Miranda say oh! such fun.
Sorry for the silence but I have been getting out and getting on with life !!! Most of the time stressed to hell !!?
Yeah - what a trip this is though and it is still all change as my lungs, throat & mouth etc still try and recover !!
What flipping damage that .... smoking did !! Taste & smell still coming back and sometimes I get a smell that I haven't had for 37 years or so, that might then bring in a memory of something I hadn't thought about in all this time.
I am not out of the woods so to speak but I remain so very very grateful that I have QUIT and stay a NON SMOKER whatever happens.
Jonathan so hlad your enjoying your smokefree nope life.

I will have to pop the question to our lovely Emjay and see what she can come up with eh
Take care pal, and if you find that you need any huggs, I will send you some, but you've got to realise that they are man to man ones eh
Hi Jonathan, it's nice to see you on here again, it can take a while for taste and smell to come back fully, it is great when you get a memory from them though isn't
