hi all,
i've had a hectic wkd.
big night out with girls on sat. pretty much spent the whole rest of the wkd with rochester.
there is talk of a holiday with all kids.. infact.. there's more than talk, organisation has begun.
belle - glad you had the big convo. .. as for ds... i think you might need to properly introduce ds if you have already been rumbled and soldier is to be a regular overnight visitor.
eve - i still want a cigarette every single day.when i quit before for a few years length.. i still wanted a ciggy.. every day. it never leaves you. but i do find i found it easier but avoiding situations where i thought about it.
if you have a morning routine of coffee/ciggy.. change it to a chamomile tea.
remove every single thing that reminds you of smoking.. bin every ashtray, lighter, etc out of the house. you dont need to be reminded of a ciggy everytime you go into a cupboard for something else and see an ashtray or stray lighter.
tell smoking friends not to give you ciggy's no matter how much you ask. and even ask them not to smoke infront of you till you feel strong enough not to be tempted.
i find quitting easier without nicotine substitues. its like ripping plaster off. harder at first. but i find the patches / pills are another reminder of smoking.. i aim to try not to think about it as well as not to do it. makes it easier.
monty - how was your night out?
kdk - did you give him your number?
betty - at boilerman. have either of you met eithers dc?
hows everyone else?
i'll try keep up. but hectic week again.
