SVTKate - 12 Apr 2005 22:49 GMT Most of you know that even on a normal day I can be ... let's say BLUNT.
However, recently things have changed a bit.
In all fairness, you should know I just quit smoking. Today is the third day.
Add to that the normal hormonal imbalances of a woman in her mid 40's and a life long "kiss my a.s" attitude...
Anyway...
You've been warned. If I'm meaner than normal for awhile... It should pass.

Defiant - 12 Apr 2005 23:25 GMT your family has my sympathies. My ex tried and tried to quit and she had the same head long attitude as well. this wasn't fun believe me, hope you fare better than she did. Me personally I think I'm going to hide... now I'm glad you decided to quit smoking that is the best thing you can do for both you and your family so you will live longer and stay healthy. I hope you stay not smoking atleast if not for yourself but for your family. (BTW I've never smoked and never will) but I understand it is hard, so I'm sure most of us will understand if you a little out of sorts for awhile, me personally I'm used to it most women I know are crabby anyway...:) Gook luck.

Damn at least with my wife I can throw her in the basement and feed her raw meat when the mood strikes.
Keep up the good work It took a Heart attack to get me to quit, and yes quitting makes ya meaner than owl sh.t.

SVTKate - 13 Apr 2005 02:09 GMT Good thing that you quit DD! One of my motivators is my "much older" hubby. I want to keep him around awhile, and in good shape. WOuld hate to have to push him around with an oxygen tank before his time. He's in good shape, I wanna keep him that way. Poor guy.. I like him enough to keep him around.. there is no hope LOL

SVTKate - 13 Apr 2005 02:04 GMT I have only been smoking (again) for 5 years. The last time I quit was for 16 years. I think It's going to be just fine. I really got so that I didn't much like it any more anyway. The REALLY good thing is hubby quitting too. If he wasn't then there would be no way I could.
Are you really old enough to have broken bad habits that long ago?
geeze!! ya ol' coot!

Here are my stats:
This is to CERTIFY that:
JOHN L. HERRING
Has neither smoked nor puffed a single cigarette for: Three years, three months, two weeks, five days, 11 hours, 23 minutes and 36 seconds. This means he has not lit 60273 cigarettes, and has saved $9,041.06. The additional time he has to spend his daughters' inheritance is about: 29 weeks, 6 days, 6 hours, and 45 minutes.
Soon you will be able to do the same! BTW, the folks in the chat room at:
http://quitnet.com/
were a great help to me.
Best of luck!! Please keep us informed about how the quit is going.

SVTKate - 13 Apr 2005 19:41 GMT Dang John! How do you know th toe second when you quit? I something like this on a group sponsored by Smoke Away and could not understand how folks kept track like that.
I figure that once the cravings go away, I'll just forget about it like last time.
Though, right now....aarggggggggeeeeeeeeeeeehhhhhhhhhhh!

Richard - 14 Apr 2005 02:22 GMT Hang in there Kate. I quit 20 years ago when I was 42 and I'm convinced it's one of the best things I ever did. Tough, sure it is. What I did discover was that the act of lighting up was part of something else. Once you break that cycle (with the first coffee - after something - that beer - whatever) the urge to smoke was not as great. Didn't have crutches (nicoderm) in those days just needed the desire to accomplish the task.

I was an under a pack a day smoker, and they are only about $2.30 a pack here. Still would take a long time to buy a blower.
So far so good.

Nothing makes me sadder than seeing someone smoking inside a nice Mustang, not that you would have. In 1979, a friend inhereted a 1971 fastback Mustang from his father, who was a three-pack a day smoker and a diabetic. We decided to clean the interior of the car because it hadn't been. The thing reeked of tobacco. I noticed it had a stereo with a wood-grain finish. So, we went at it with windex and towels. Turns out, the stereo had a chrome finish. It was tobacco smoke covered. -Rich
SVTKate - 14 Apr 2005 23:36 GMT When I got my car, the previous owner had already smoked in it.

Uhh... no way am I giving up caffeine, we never have drank very much (an occasional BBQ free for all) and well, if we wanna smoke, it's still legal. Once the addiction is gone, an occasional smoke won't hurt me(like one or two a year, but hubs.. he can't have "just one"

Bought a great little OFF WHITE daybed on Ebay to put in guest room. Got a helluva deal on it. $100 and new it's $799. Beautiful condition.
Drove to Kentucky to pick it up. 12 hours on the road. $50 on fuel for the truck.
Painted the room, took two days to peel the previous owner's wallpaper off of the walls and put a couple of coats of paint in there.
Drug the daybed out of the garage, up the steps and in had to force it through through the front door. Got a big smudge on one of the arms of the OFF WHITE daybed.
Went to make the bend to go down the hall and....
the f*cking thing WILL NOT GO.
We are disassembling it now, but it's upholstered and not intended to be taken apart.
So... I went out on the back porch, lit a cigarette.. took two drags, it tasted like crap, and I put it out.
So, I suppose the quit is working..
Now, to get a chainsaw after that daybed.
How's YOUR saturday goin John?

Defiant - 16 Apr 2005 23:06 GMT ow bad day there Kate, hopefully it will get better. and as for the Day bed deal been there done that. I had to do it by myself Christmas Eve to get it setup for the Step daughter on Christmas morning. and like you I had to go get the dam thing, load it up BY myself and get it home in Freezing weather. Not fun, as for the Chainsaw mines fueled up and ready to go new chain and all. Defiant (it will get better there Kate, now behave yourself)

Hope the little one liked it!
Today is going to be a great day. If nothing else, I STLYY have the metal parts, and hubby and I can design a very cool metal frame that will hold the bed frames.
It was just that I had already chosen the colors and patterns for the room based on this silly day bed. On an up note, it's just a guest room and I can just close the damn door LOL!
