Good morning everyone, I hope you are all feeling well. Some of you early quitters have been feeling sad and a little depressed, but dont worry it will pass. Your body is still adjusting to being smokefree. Once your brain excepts there is no more harmful chemicals heading your way you will start to feel much better.
I have lost track on how many days you PIPPS are on but your doing great.
Enjoy your Saturday and stay Happy!

I hope you are all well and have your sun glasses ready cos have ordered some sun for today to cheer us all up
I bought some petrol lastnight, soooooo now I've got no excuse not to mow the lawns so thats my first job today. Mind you, I do like the smell of freshly cut grass especially now I can smell it more with quitting smoking
Hey Jillygirl, you done your supermarket dash yet ??
Morning everyone a lovely day in the North West this morning, sun is shining, blue sky, grass cutting here today as well it's so very long noticed it when I got home from work last night. Hope everyone has a fab day today and gets out in the lovely fresh air, keep smiling x x
Good Morning Kaprin, well you sound on top of the world today! Fantastic
Sadly the sun hasn't reached Sheffield yet but I'm sure it will get here eventually! I'm actually thinking of hanging my washing outside today (first time this year) - I do love the smell of freshly dried washing don't you!
I thought the same Chrissie hung it all out and it decided to rain, just brought it all in and put in the dryer and guess what yep it's sunny again, never mind exercise is good for me x
Well I'm afraid I never got my washing out, the sun did not shine here at all today and is still very overcast! So you got further than I did! I bet your washing still smells fresher than mine will! xxx
Morning everyone , so you have the sun huh! I read this in the paper last night and thought it was so good I would share it with you all. Life doesn't get better by CHANCE, it gets better by CHANGE. I think that about sums up what we are doing - making changes so life gets better. Good luck with the changes everyone, we are all on this journey together x x
Wow Briarwood, that is awesome!!! and yes that sums us up beautifully!!! Thank you for posting it, this will now be my thought of the day! Have a lovely day sweetie xxx
I can barely believe it myself but today is DAY 20 for the PIPPs, we are now in Double Double Figures!!! (day 10 being the first double figure)
Double Double Figures for the PIPPs is AWESOME!
I guess we should do a Double Double Dance to Celebrate!
I had the most wonderful evening with my girls last night and I cannot describe to you how proud they are that I've stopped smoking. Emily joked that I only had to get them out of the way (off to uni) to do it and they really believed that this was happening now. I was actually online here when they arrived last night and so I showed them the site and what was happening and they were SO impressed,.They could see what a fantastic support system this was to help people like me - long term smokers who were determined to kick the habit once and for all, and they LOVED it!
So that was lovely wasn't it!
Anyway I left my car at the pub last night so now I have to try to cadge a lift from my ex husband to fetch it, or I've got a fairly long walk , a good part of which is up a fairly steep hill ahead of me! I actually wouldn't mind either, it would really be quite a challenge for me!
Ha Ha ha - thanks my friend - but it's Double Double figures you know! That extra double is so important!

Aup Chrissie, Day 20 now then eh, wow, thats gone sooooo quick and a massive big well done to you hmmmm, I see I will have to watch you too, otherwise you will be catching me up as well as Briarwood
Am sooooooooo glad your night went well with your Daughters and you enjoyed it
My '' Now 87 '' CD has just come, so am going to listen to that for a bit while I do a bum wiggle dance for you
Hey, you flippin walk for your car, about time you did some flippin exercise gal
Hey thank you Monky Minky! Yes I'm pretty proud of hitting the double double figures now! So EXCITING!!!
hey I'm happy your NOW 87 CD has arrived - I stopped buying them when I didn't know any of the artists who were on them anymore
And you are so right - I really should walk to fetch my car back - it really is lazy of me to ask for a lift - it would be very very good for me to text my fitness too (although that hill scares me a bit!)
I shall let you know if and when I do it!
Enjoy the happy dancing - I might join in if you do it again tonight
Hi Pete, aww I was looking at that CD in Asda the other day. They were playing it and first I heard Tsunami which I love but like Chrissie am rubbish with names so I used my Track ID app on my phone to see what it was, then Calvin Harris came on which I know so I thought ha! compilation CD and went and found it. Enjoy your bum wiggle dancing, though Happy and Hey Brother am just a tad sick and tired of hearing so I don't think I'll buy it myself.
Hi Jillygirl, oh, I just remembered reading yesterday that you didn't sleep too well cos of cramps and stuff. Hope you're feeling a bit better today and that you managed to catch up on your zzzzz's last night.
Hi ya Sinfree, so sorry gal, I must have missed you before ermmmm, am not sure how I did that
just wondering if you have heard '' All of me '' by John Legend I bought this CD cos it has 46 songs on it, it cost me £13.99, sooooooo, what I do is, sort the songs I like, maybe 20 - 25 and burn them to a CD if I bought these songs single, then it would cost me at least £20.00 eh
Just listening to them now - "If I didn't Care" - it sounds sooooooooooooooooo Old! It sounds like the sort of music they had on Downton Abbey or something like that!
Hi Sinfree, yeah there ancient gal, but when I was young, my Dad always listened to them, and when I had been dumped by a ermmmm, female, I used to listen to them and they eased my sorrow
I remember absolutely ages ago, when we were all putting video's on off youtube, I put a series of songs on all lamenting my sad loss of old nic. Oh well, never completely kicked nicotine into touch anyway, she says typing away with e-cig hanging out of her mouth. They're flipping heavy these things to have hanging out of your mouth. haha not that I ever used to go round with a fag hanging out of my mouth
Is anyone watching BGT on ITV at the moment, those light people dancing were good.
Hi Pete I think you went off to potter in your garden :D. I had a look on Amazon, CD2 is the better out of the two for me. John Legend :0 dunno, will have to look back on Amazon.

Stupid tablet, will have to wind up the laptop. this has done my faces all wrong
I just found it on Amazon, John Legend, nope, in all honesty despite I listen to radio 1 have never heard it, but.........I may well not have noticed it, not my kinda music, too slow. When I got married (my 32nd wedding anniversary coming up on Wednesday) the useless DJ at the reception never asked me what I would like for the first dance, what did he play? 3 times a lady!! Lionel piggn Richie, I hate, hate, hate that song soooooo much.

My Love - Route 94 is better than All of Me, me thinks.
Hi jillygirl, the voice of experience. You are here to keep everyone on the straight and narrow, you are like our Mother Hen looking after her little chicks! We all need a little looking after at times, so thanks Mother Hen for looking after us and setting such a good example. 2 years - we all want to follow in your footsteps x x x x

I thought I'd throw that one in. I loved it too. Did you see Jools Holland's Hootenanny on new years eve just gone, one of the original Gap Band did that hit, haha, it was really good to say he must be knockin on a bit now. I love Hootenanny, watch it every New Years Eve, sooooo much better than going out. It's on youtube if you want to look.
