hi beer fine thankyou hope you are okay how is the non-smoking going? Am bit proud of myself today 2nd time i have been shoping at supermarket and still not brought booze. Actually went down booze isle at asda and came out empty handed:) Are you gonna save the cig money and treat yourself and your o/h to something nice?

beer2006

Thats great, you seem to be up to speed already. You should be proud of yourself, you deserve it. Asda booze isle I did that the other day as well, and Lidl (although that was alot easier )
Smoking is still going OK, headaches again this afternoon and I was as moody as hell for a couple of hours, but its slowly getting better, I actually had a few times today I didn't crave for a fag, so it is getting better.
Actually I feel really guilty about spending the money on cigs for so long, so I don't think I'll be saving up the money, add in the money I spent on drink for years and I'm in debt to the OH forever

And I'm learning to juggle, passed an hour today my 3 year old insisted on learning with me..... her idea of juggling, hold all 3 balls and throw them all at me at once she really was trying

jayne.doe

oh bless her, they love to do what daddy does:) My co-ordination is dire so no juggling for me:( I am trying and feel reasonably positive one second one day etc etc...What about buying your o/h some flowers if she has been through so much. i love flowers and when my o/h gives them to me (not often)!!!they mean so much:)

beer2006

Mmmm maybe, whether she deserves flowers I don't know. If you do it once they always expect it
Yeah one second at a time, been like that today here too, well done for hanging on, if you go back now, you'll !!!! up the whole pain you've been through so far and have to do it all again.

How are you?

beer2006

That sounds good, how come you said he stays in bed all weekend, thats not a normal thing to do....... although it may be commented by some people that I am not the best person to comment on "normal"

I almost keep doing the same, only in my head, feeling crap, have a .......... oh yeah, don't do that anymore

Has he been offering you any? And has he still given up fags?

feelinggood_2

He's given up the fags, which is why he is in bed - the first few days are hell for him, its easier if he just sleeps through it.
He does get out of bed at normal weekends.
He hasn't offered me any drink which is good
