I just had to say thanks for all the wonderful comments in my last blog about not smoking!
I have been doing great! Working into week 2 (9-10 days? lost count! LOL) I have had a set back on a really rough day....I smoked a half of one =( but none since and that was the day after my last post! YAY!
We are planning a road trip to Ohio next week (2nd for the summer =P) and it will be the first time that we have made the 8+ hour drive without the aid of smokes! Going to be rough when we stop at rest area's not to get that urge! Though I think I am more concerned with Gas station stops then anything...you can buy them there! Either way it is going to be a challenge that I am more then up for at t his point....my mind is slowly drifting from those thoughts which is making it easier to not smoke! Even on rough days...That is another thing I am learning to do....cope with stress without nicotine (i do mad cleaning instead LOL)
Anyway Thank you all again for the kind words, Helping out a lot!!! I really like hearing stories about how you quit and how long it has been! Congrats to you! I know it is HARD! To those who have had health problems...my deepest sympathy, I can only imagine a fraction of what you must have gone through...I was lucky and I can only see that more now!!!

I am a 25 year old stay at home mom of one very smart and active 4 year old. I have been married for 3+ years and together for 6+ years. I have lived in NC for the past 9 years. I met my husband here in NC after we both spent most of our lives in Ohio an hour apart (I 16 years in the same town and house him for 14 years I think). After spending 3 days together we both knew that we would be together for the rest of our lives... though it took us 3 years and a baby to get married! (we did not get married because of our son as a side note) My biggest dream is to become a well known artist and make a living at it. I do all kinds of art including plaster carvings, painting, scratch board, and sketching. I did not go to school for my art, I have been at it since before i can remember. I am self tought. I also do some crafts such as cross stitch and croche'. I have done work painting sets and making posters for The Staind Glass Playhouse in Winston Salem as well as some set painting in Lewisville for the West Side Civic Theatre. My husband, who is an actor, is the reason I got associated with these theatres to begin with. It is alot of work and fun but I am always glad to see winter months ahead and not just because I like the cold weather! Recently my Art activity has increased and things are looking good in the way of possibly making a living at this...slow going but you got to start somewhere! One day you may just know my name and face without having ever met me! Heck you may even buy a painting or ask me for a portrait of your family members!
