THE FAG FREE LADEEZ CLUB INVITES YOU TO JOIN!

[dropinthe]

New thread started just for you,honey!Could you get in trouble?Who has done this?Why?

You crazy cats.

Vous êtes folles, complètement!!

That list though, mll, is a good idea. Did a thing like that while reading Allen Carr. I'd add to your list that it's a reward, after baby is asleep, drink and fag is like my special quiet moment. It's this reason that I find the hardest to unpick. The others can all be linked simply to addiction. Habit, obviously. Stress is actually caused by the lack of nicotine, so naturally, smoking eases the stress. Pleasure, only in so much as it 'scratches the itch' bought on by the lack of nicotine. And identity, well quite frankly, I could do without an identity that involves smoking. Not bery pretty, is it?!

OMFG now its my fault dp is going to HAVE to go up the shop, because i said No Smoking...to jolly myself along..............HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA

that would be like saying it was his fault that ive stopped

I must be a witch, for his insult he is now in bed with a bug

Tomorrow's the day, I think

Whats the I think about? Go for it...how have you been feling about the fags since your last blip?

Hi there folks, still ciggie free, v confused about what's happening to poor mll but perhaps had better just stick to ciggie talk....

have not been tempted really, it's been easier with kids around all the time (they go back to school tomorrow here in scotland - mixture of sadness & relief, but MAINLY sadness...)

cc, your wee one will be starting soon I guess, how you feeling about that? Also how do you post on m'net under a different name? xx

Hey FG Tanya starts on the 5th of September, I feel quite sad that the poor wee mouse will have to do another year of nursery type stuff as shes ready for more. I hope she makes some good friends to make the time go quicker.
Your lucky tommorow .
To post under a diff name go up to top of this page useful stuff your member profile click on that and change your name ...you can flip to and from very easily.

thanks cc xx as you prob know in scotland they don't do reception, but go straight into P1, which am glad about cos dd has done 2 years of nursery as I think your dd has... anyway, with all kids at school will be able to loll about and smoke (joke!)

Heellooo! Don't worry about me, I'm just having an identity crisis

My little dd starts her first bit of pre-school in Sept. too. AGH. My eyes fill with tears whenever I think about it and she's not taking the thought of it seriously at all. She keeps saying 'mummmmyyy ... I think YOU have to stay with me at schoooolll ...'

Well done, em, by the way! Go for it!!

fiona, I keep meaning to ask you a very banal question. Which contemporary authors do you like? Do you read novels yourself? What kind? (nosey mll as always...)

Hi all. I'm still fag-free. It's been nearly 6 months. I'm still overweight though, and haven't continued with the running thing. Oh well. Hang in there, you all.

LOL lean legs...FG remember to swop your new name back to FG before you post anywhere else x

Heh heh heh ...

I've changed my name so many times now I'm not sure who I am. Or why.

Maybe mummylooselegs could be a smoker ... all the others will abstain of course ...

... cough ... splutter ...

thanks cc you're a pal

looselegs - I like fairly mainstream fiction, nothing too tricky - authors like Anne Tyler (my hero), Melissa bank (girl's guide to hinting & fishing), also julia darling (fantastic, sadly died earlier this year), julie myerson, and I also love reading nutty childhood-type memoirs (faves at the moment are Augusten Burroughs and David Sedaris). One of fave books last year was How I Live Now by Meg Rossoff.

Me and dh have just taken dd to school for her first day (I got a wee bit watery eyed, but was spookily self controlled) - he came home and lit fag in kitchen, PONGO!!!! Am starting to really not like fags.

Thanks for that, fg, it's always intesting to know who a writer reads! I read stacks of fiction, some of it more 'tricky' but lots of choices from the 3 for 2 selection on big booksellers tables so I also read what I'd guess you call 'mainstream'? Would someone like Anita Shreve class as mainstream? I just read Ghost Story by Toby Litt which I thought was amazing but very upsetting.

HOW do you get time to read you lucky ladeez?
I used to be an avid reader,(can read really fast too so could get through books in a few days-this of course was pre-kids!)
Tried to pick the habit up again on holiday-read a trashy,"Shopoholic abroad"type of book,in fact that's what is was called,really enjoyed the banality of it but it still took me nearly 2 bloody weeks to read it!

Didn't manage it. It's too sunny.

I would always find it hard to contemplate stopping smoking when it was sunny-the two,(and copius amounts of alcohol),go hand in hand don't they! Know where you are coming from!!

CC-have just spotted that you reside in Tonbridge Wells-YOU MUST come to the London Meet up with MLL and myself-you could get a train there,no???

Ah, em, imagine how sad that sun will look when you're seeing it through your hospital window, plugged into your oxygen machine ...

(sorry, I'm still going for the morbid treatment!) (you'll get all walks of therapy on her em )

drop, I read when dd naps, before I go to bed in the evening and on the bus to and fro from work twice a week. I'd be lost, absolutely lost without a fictional world to get involved in. Or rather I'm such a total worrier that having a nose in my book helps me to think about something other than my own woes. Plus I love language.

Have you seen my email? Was worried I got your address wrong.

By the way mll-you sound like I did when you were contemplating stopping!

By the way mll-you sound like I did when you were contemplating stopping!

I know. I'm adopting your hard approach for a while, drop. We're gonna get this em stopped once and for all between us!
