Oh, I’m a real worry! Old age and forgetfulness seems to be the order of the day.

Not so long ago I hung my washing in the wardrobe to dry. Then just a few minutes ago the phone rang – so I picked up my coffee cup to answer it! Luckily the coffee had gone cold, as is usual, so at least I didn’t get scalded. I’m wondering what I will do next – any suggestions? Oh, that should read 'helpful and nice' suggestions, otherwise, who knows what suggestions I might reveive!

Non Smoker

Posted 5th May 2010 at 10:04 PM by Rosemary

Well this is the third day of being a non smoker and I found it harder than the first day!

The usual puff after my first coffee of the day felt very desirable this morning

Then again this afternoon, one of my symptoms from my PTSD suddenly came on and I was that close to getting into the car and going to buy some cigarettes! Luckily I turned the radio on and one of my favourite tunes was being played. That took my mind off my need for a smoke thank goodness.

So, although early days yet, I can still say I am a 'non smoker'.

    Keep it up! I've been off smokes for a year and a half now and I haven't looked back. Its worth it, Rosemary. Its wretched at first but it is worth it.

    Thank you J-Wo!

    Unhappily another family crisis has occurred - so until that has calmed down I'm back to being a smoker. However, I am determined to win in the end!

    Rose,

    My suggestion: Take that pack and run water over it for 5 min. See how appealing those cigarettes look then. Family emergencies call for prayer, pacing, and positive thinking.

    Thank you Parson, for your advice! There's only a couple left in the packet now and that's the end of it.

    I have tried the prayer and pacing but a little trouble with positive thinking about my family. So trying to keep busy.
