    I had a few minor cravings or urgings but I didnt give in.  Drank some water, and sucked a lozenge.Woke up bright and early this morning after a restless night.  When I went to change my patches I had a minor irritation from the one.  So looks like I have to had another spot into the mix.  When I was out doing errands I had major urgings and I was afraid of these but instead of smoking or buying cigarettes I bought a couple of nicorette sprays and used it instead.  I was puzzling what to do about this weekend because this is when a friend goes to the reserve for our household and debated getting a bag.  My quit coach at STOP suggested not getting one because it is a situation of having them and possibly smoking, my landlady said the same thing so that is that I will not get smokes this month, instead I treated my self to a ebook from kindle.  Have a good smoke free day everyone.

    Hey manderson4!

    You've got it. One day down and keeping it one day at a time. I am so glad for you! 
    With all of your determination and hard work, you definitely deserve a good book from kindle.

    Manderson4, I look forward to seeing you on day 2 but hope you are having a good evening tonight.

    Lillian

    Hi manderson4,

    I am so glad you decided not to get a bag.  Stick with it.  You have done it before and you can do it again.  Remember how good you felt when you stopped smoking?  Didn't you also feel a sense of pride and accomplishment?  You can have all of that again.  Your slip wasn't so long ago, so now is the time to get back with the program and give your lungs a break.  We are all rooting for you, manderson4.  Enjoy your book!
