Thank You yurtgirl, I think my fellow quitters are hiding somewhere puffing

minkmama · 23/10/2004 22:31

I AM NOT YOU CHEEKY MARE Yes, i'm finally back to break up cc's very sad conversation with herself. you poor thing, you had started to look loony...

I am shattered!! looking after these 2 in a house that's not ours is the hardest work ever! dh was working whilst we were up there so just had his mum to help but still...

and i managed to avoid the lozenges for the most part as i didn't want people asking me why i was sucking mints all of a sudden (they don't know i started again) or they'd prob think i was smoking again!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY FG!!!!!!!!!!! You must be right now, a)pissed b) up to something naughty

God i've missed chatting to you lot!

charliecat · 23/10/2004 22:34

OMG your back...my headache has lifted...I was starting to feel a little deranged actually
Couldnt help but post even if it was to myself...a couple of days?????????? Youve been gone FOREVER
Please stop going off

minkmama · 23/10/2004 22:34

oh and i finally finished your book, raced through in the end as it got v. exciting! what a great read, really. you should be proud

minkmama · 23/10/2004 22:37

you make me sound like a piece of food

have had some wine and starting to not feel my fingers, so when they eventually stop typing english, that'll be the sign that i'm off...

are you feeling better btw?

my clock says 77 cigs not smoked in 1w 5d and not even £20 saved. that's the problem with only smoking 6ish a day...keep expecting my clock to say something better!!

minkmama · 23/10/2004 22:38

we were supposed to watch 'mean girls' but dh has conked out with the boys so i don't think that's on the cards. had hoped to have a nice bath and cleaned up the bathroom for it only to remember that i came on this morning

minkmama · 23/10/2004 22:39

charliecat · 23/10/2004 22:39

Ahhh but if you look back to a previous thread where youve been trying and failing and the utter despair you have felt..well fuck the money and the fags smoked, you have regained some self respect for yourself

minkmama · 23/10/2004 22:40

thanks cc, that's true.

this clock thing does spur you on though doesn't it?

charliecat · 23/10/2004 22:41

I got in there...so where have you been? And what did you do for all those days?
I HATE staying at other folks houses, even though my kids are very well behaved[most of the time] it is such an effort. And not farting and ohhh things like that I hate it!

charliecat · 23/10/2004 22:42

I had a moment earlier and I thought Just One noone would know...that was my paranoid, everyone else is moment....and then I thought a) I would know and b) the clock would have to be reset. So i didnt.

minkmama · 23/10/2004 22:46

LOL cc, no it wasn't that polite there. we stayed with dh's mum & dad's home in birmingham. it's just not a child friendly place for sockets, chemicals, sharp objects etc. as they are adults after all, so with ds1 running around like a loony, i've got to be really careful.

oh god, he almost got run over! we were in a car park and i was about to put ds2 in the car and mil had ds1 but put him down by the side of the car as she put shopping in teh boot and this van pulled into the space next to us quite quickly and i just heard him drive past me and realised and shouted 'MAX, MAX!!!!' and mil grabbed him! god, i felt so sick.

minkmama · 23/10/2004 22:47

yeah, those everyone else ones are the worst. don't ever think that again as i'm not smoking and you're not smoking and i hope no-one else is smoking!!!!

mammya · 23/10/2004 22:48

111 cigarettes not smoked! woohoo! Am so pleased with myself! How are you guys doing? (sorry haven't read last posts)

charliecat · 23/10/2004 22:48

OMG your heart just stops doesnt it, and when you realise they are o you could kick yourself? My dds are like little elfs and they get behind me so I cant see them i Hate that too!!!!

minkmama · 23/10/2004 22:49
