I am leaving tomorrow to go to Ky to see my brother and other family.  Ky is a very smoking state.  Several of my friends there smoke and I hope to avoid places where temptations will be bad.  My brother doesn't smoke but his wife does but not in the house most of the time. YEAH!  I am dreading the ride will be my first long one sine my quit. It's 32 days and I'm looking forward to 50 days and to take a ride on the smoke free train. I will try and stay in touch as much as possible, but will have to borrow a computer. I wish all well with your quit.  Keep a tight rein on it. Please keep me in your thoughts.

Gone but Not Forgotten. RIP - they leave a legacy of their quit journeys behind as road maps for future members, to prevent the pitfalls, provide the tools and show the hope and possibilities for success at overcoming this addiction at any age at any stage. Mother, grandmother and great grandmother My name is Betty and I was born and raised in Kentucky where tobacco was a way of life. I started smoking full time by age 14. The first time I can remember smoking I was 9. I have been on the road to quitting for several years. I quit once for 6 weeks and then thought I would smoke just one. It only took a few weeks till I was smoking full time again. That is why remembering NOT ONE PUFF EVER is so important. It will never be just one puff or just one cigarette. Nicotine addiction doesn't work like that, it is an addiction, feed it and you become addicted. Here are a couple of links to reading materials that I recommend to ALL who would like to quit smoking: What to Expect in the First Four Months (by Jonescarp aka Dale): http://community.becomeanex.org/pg/blog/read/3713880/what-to-expect-in-the-first-four-months The "Easy Way to Stop Smoking" by Allen Carr.
