so you continue to smoke while on the meds? and then quit the meds and the smokes?
No, I'll be on the medication for months. No more smokes after fourteen days though.
Six packs left. I'm thinking by the weekend I should be finished with them. Gettin really sick of the darn things.
Well, you don't have to smoke them just because they are already paid for, you know.
Damnit! I miscounted. I had seven and a half packs left. Just opened number seven. Oy.
Less than fifteen cigarettes left. Any left over before I hit the sack will be destroyed.
Tomorrow is my day.
Please be kind.
And patient. :wink:
Go Rae Go Rae Go Rae!!!
You can do it!!
(And I should know!

)
(That's a Rosie the Riveter joke...

)
Rae, you KNOW it's not gonna be THAT hard! You've already quit mentally. So get out there and tend your garden, plant that pineapple that's been sitting there for weeks, write those letters you've been putting off, soak up the sun .............. etc.
You've done this before, but this time it's gonna work.
There will always be times in life when we feel more stress than others, and times of crisis too. That doesn't mean you need a cigarette to get through it, after all, you weren't born with a cigarette in your mouth, and you made it until you started smoking.
You can do it:)
Thanks sozobe! So, like, I can call you tomorrow to whine? Please?
I'm just kiddin. I'll be just fine. And rid of a nasty habit.
But, fair warning.....I'll be around A2K more often.....gotta keep the fingers movin ya know...... :wink:
Done deal, Ma. Be patient with me though. Please.
Good luck, Rae - I'll be thinking about you!
Little fingers reach for toothpicks.
Or fudge.
skip the fudge, that becomes another problem..
Weeding, that's good. Did someone say dancing? Moving? Basically, change the subject..
and, of course, congratulations. You ex-smoker, you.
Deep breaths and sips of water. Hang in there.
My man has just reached 33 days without a smoke - after over 50 years of smoking. But it took a minor heart attack and a quadruple bypass for him to do it. Don't put yourself through what we have both been through for the last month - quit now.
nextone ~ wish I could take a deep breath ~ that'll come back in a few days, I'm sure. Thanks for the encouragement though!
I know it's too soon for my lungs to be back to right, but I'm already seeing improvement with my voice (I love to sing) as well as my breathing.
Tomorrow is another day.....Keep me in your thoughts, please! :wink:
ahhhhhhh, singing for the babies! a wonderful goal.
(((((((((((((((( rae )))))))))))))))))))))
hang in, girl.
