    In my experience online friends can be the most treasured friends you will ever have there always there they listen when things are tough they support unconditionally and never turn there back... why because there's no place to hide and if someone says something you don't like you can ignore it and take the good.

    I had no idea when I typed this thred that I would gain three amazing women to help me on my path to smokeless freedom I love you all dearly for your support and long may it carry on we have a long path ahead of us that we must all reach the end together.

    Stay strong my friends stand tall and remember we don't want that puppy to starve ;)

    If I had the extra money, I'd be sending out tshirts to you girls... A picture of a pack of cigarettes with the "No" sign over it on the front, and "Do it for the puppy" on the back with a picture of that adorable dog.

    My boys have had their pizza and we're on speaking terms. Hubby is going away this weekend to play soldier with the army guard. The 2 boys and I will be going to the movies tomorrow. Syn that is a great idea. About the tee shirts. We can call ourselves smoke busters. A cigi with the circle and line through it. Like ghost busters. Cbw, you know the unwritten rule of parenting, sleep when they do. Someone emailed me a little note about women and it rains true. Our one flaw is that we underestimate our worth. I believe it. Men are just starting to understand how strong we women really are. Keep in mind God gave us the responsibility of childbirth not men. Pound for pound women are stronger than men.

    Love, chippers

    Good morning. Excellent. Your doing an awsome job. I am not feeling any better. None of the magic medicine is working. The infections are just spreading. Baby is doing well.
    Have a good weekend and enjoy your time with your family.

    Laura - More than understandable. I would have probably had a whole carton. Ya done good.

    Joe - oh hope you feel better. Have you called the Doc to let him know you are not getting any better. Be careful there :) okay?

    Lots of hugs to both of you!

    My doctor is sort of like a naturalist. It almost kills him to hand out a prescription. I seen him yesterday. That is how I found out my second ear is infected and now I have bronchitis. He did not want to change the medication I am on. He just told me to stay home rest and lots of fluids.

    I might go to another doctor today, or tomorrow at the clinic. I know they will give me something better. I know I have to be really careful especially with this kind of infection. Thank you for you thoughts and help.

    Joe

    Lots of hugs back (Even Though I am not 75)

    Oh Joe, you little bunny you!! You are so 75!! Tell the truth. Hee, hee.

    Natural stuff is fine, but I think for the infections you have you may need a strong antibiotic. But what do I know, you're a whole lot older and wiser, so I bow to that wisdom... LOL

    Tee Hee Joe get to that clinic and insist they give you some kick anti biotics don't make me get on that plane now ;)

    Morning Allheart my sweet how are you doing today ?

    Good Morning my Dear CBW.

    How's the spirits today?

    Back from the market, just need to put the stuff away and get a couple things under way before the "King" arises. Hee, hee.

    Not feeling 100% here today. Today I started the second pack of the medicine. Today was to be my quit day, but I was too impatient and wanted to join my friends on the top branch sooner :).

    But I think the medicine is now stronger with the second week and I am not liking it at all. I had to injest about 95 crackers, may have been 96 just to combat the nautious feeling.
    Really would love to stop the medicine and I think I can do it without it. But I don't want to mess around with just stopping it. If the side effects get worse, and I am sure they will as the levels increase, I'll call the doc and see if I can just stop.

    I still have a slight urge to smoke physically, but mentally I want no parts of it. Guess that's a good thing.

    How's your day going?

    Wow good going there Allheart, medication doesn't sound all that nice I have to admit I know what you mean about the mental want for smoking its weird isn't it lol we need to find a way of telling our brain to get stuffed.

    Ive got ben vacuming the house before we go out and do the things we need to do.

    Enjoy the rest of your day lots of hugs and love to you hunn xxxxxxx

    Aaaaaaaaaah 105 crackers later, and I am feeling much better.

    Hope your day is going well my good friend. Still hanging on the top branch with you :)

    And even prouder of you that you get Ben to do the vaccuming. I just love it :):)

    Lots and lots of hugs and love

    Good day GODDESSES. How is everyone. I'm still at three cans and holding. I feel better today than I did yesterday. Even the cats went to hide from me then.
    Joe, you need to find a new duck. Errrrrrrr I mean doc. Does anyone else see how similar that is. Duck / doc? Oh well.
    Hubby is away this weekend. I'm finishing up on laundry and just chilling till I take the kids to the movies.
    It's Saturday and we've made it a week. It went by fast.
    Allheart, check with yout doc about the medication. Maybe you need to be at the first level longer. As for the stomach trouble. My husband turned me onto wonton soup and white rice. Just the broth and rice will curb it. I've even given it to my kids when their tummies are upset. It really works. Even on morning sickness.
    Cbw, how did you makeout yesterday. I thought about you all day.
    Syn, how is it going? Hope you are having a good day.

    Love to all Beth aka chippers

    Chippers way to go!! And so glad you feel better today!

    Hey thanks for the tip about the soup. Makes sense.

    Hugs and love to all.
