Woo Hoo - Wow that's fantastic, congratulations and a massive warm welcome to the site!! :) :) :)

Hey as you posted a 2 minutes ago, that means it's 1 week and 44 minutes now - doesn't time fly when you're having fun!

So how are you doing this and how are you feeling having achieved a whole week of not smoking? I hope you are feeling as proud as punch and very very happy with yourself?

best wishes

Chrissie xxx

ChrissieG in reply to monky

Yes, and no, actually I've been back to the supermarket (I gave the car a run!) to get one of those cooked chickens for danielle and I to have before she goes back - somehow I ended up spending about £30 - how did that happen??? Mind you a big jar of decaff coffee - no I just couldn't find the half and half, was £5.50 - it costs more without the caffeine - daylight robbery!!!

So what have you been up to? It's a gorgeous day out there, warmer than I was expecting :) :) xx

Thank you for the welcome. Crazy but every minute that goes by is another minute but I think I'm gonna stop counting now or I will become addicted to that and end up at Counters Anonymous

Counters Anonymous - Love it! :D :D :D - so come on which date was it you stopped? Sunday 20th or Monday 21st April?- I'm guessing Sunday 20th but your profile confused me :)

Thanks for the supportive Good wishes. No it's not my first quit I gave up from 1977 to 1993 but have smoked since then. I tried a few times in between but used every excuse in the "it's not the right time" book

Hey Supertamp, welcome abaord :D :D

I seemed to have missed this post completely sorry :-/

I hope you are doing as well as you seem to be, if there is anything we can do to compliment the advice you already get each Tuesday, let us know :-)

You look like you are out enjoying the sea air quite a bit, how did you manage to put that little sail-boat symbol on your reply?

I'm well curious... or just plain nosie! :D :D
