I have quit counting.....each day is just one more day...
I came very close tonight on the way home from work to stopping into the gas station for a pack....really happy to be done with work for the week.

But I found myself feeling guilty about grabbing a pack on the sly and fibbing to y'all, so I deferred.

It's a good thing I have you all keeping an evil eye on me........LOL.

There you are Mark! Another day marked a success without the weed.

Give yourself a high fives for resisting the pack purchase, even if it was guilt kicking in.

Another day done, another small victory in the war.
It's good to be back amongst friends and colleagues

I think I remember an old quote, but I cannot remember who or where......
Mebbe it's just my mind making it up......

But it said something to the effect that
Every mile we win is a victory.....
Every inch we lose is a defeat.......

Sounds like Patton......no B. ever won a war by dying for his county.........
They won the war by making some other B. die for his country.......

The one thing about fibbing to all of us is..... go ahead lie to us. We're not the one's that matter.

You're the one that matters & you can't lie to yourself.

BTW, visit Here & join the party!

Take the penny apart and put it back together to get your mind off things.

Or better yet, go outside and work in that lovely yard of yours.

Any distraction other than a ciggy!!!!

Hold true Mark, you will triumph!

You have never seen the world thru my front yard...........

I see a huge pine tree......
I can only see the bottom half of it when I look through my front window........
It rises to God with the rest.......

I pop the front door and I see the pair of Cardinals that have been there for the last few years,,,,,, they luv the pine trees, I think.

And then one of the kitties wanders by.........

You really are so deprived...........

I have it all, my friends........I have it all..........................

Gotta luv a 50 foot pine............

Go out and smell the pines, and think what ciggies do to your smell.

When you smoked, you had it all and could not enjoy it. Now is the time to enjoy and use your improved capabilities to look at the world and know what the weed had done to you.

Now that you are free the anchor chains are still pulling, but you are winning!!
It's good to be back amongst friends and colleagues
