The pessimist goes to the window and says "Good God, morning."

Eight months, 4 minutes and 42 seconds. 6025 cigarettes not smoked, saving $1,058.58. Life saved: 2 weeks, 6 days, 22 hours, 5 minutes.
Ha ha ha ! I JUST learned how to 'cut, paste' this after all this time. Learned
in a chat:)
Well, I loved the 'saying' above, and have decided to start my week out on a
positive note by sharing it. And my 'stats'.....well, they speak for themselves....
aside from a couple (cough, cough) of slips Some would say I should not keep
my meter running with my 'slips' every now and again. But I have chosen to keep
it...and one thing I've learned in these 8 months is that I gotta do whatever is
right for ME...NOT anybuddy else.....just ME.
Two quotes I have to keep in mind concerning *slips* ~
1. SLIP = Smobriety Lost Its Priority
2. "A slip is not a trip unless you take it."
Thanks, gals, for everything. Have a great week! **Stel**

ps I love your quote -
this morning...I was the pessimist -- I said good god, morning (;) but I did say GOOD morning to boys when I went to feed them - they always perk me up (;)
Oh {{{Stel}}}!

Can you believe i was always typing my stats on the old BTSH. Never did ask
if there was an easier way until just recently. Ha ha!
My slips have, for the most part, just been puffs, and an occasional whole
one. So I have never stopped my meter. But they sure have been frequent
lately. DH even caught me takin' a puff at the lake....yikes!
I feel a bit *optimistic* TODAY about my quit. Maybe 8 months will be a
GREAT milestone for me..let's hope so!
I'm gonna try to just stick w/the 7 mg patch, and NO gum. Boy, is THAT
addicting. We'll see. Definitely still ONE DAY AT A TIME!

Hope Aug 4 is still your quit date. Did you see my post where Mel says she
wants to be your quit buddy and make that her quit date, too? Hope things
turn out that way.
