I'm at 86 days, I'm stuck at a truck stop in Chicago with no more gum (4 pieces left), but no way to get to Walmart for more. Guess I will have to bite the bullet !!!!!   Please pray for me (and my poor husband who is locked up in here with me 🐵 ! )  I am trying to be strong, but it is kinda like my first day. I have been on 2mg since about the middle of Sept. I guess, and I have not had any real cravings, but........................  Just please pray !

I drove 10 hours yesterday, and most of it was like driving in a blizzard !!  I was headed to Chicago from CA, when I got on I 80 just east of Salt Lake City, the weather started going downhill !! The mountains were getting covered in snow, that was scary enough. I am from Texas and always just stayed home when the ground was anywhere near frozen, I DON'T KNOW HOW TO DRIVE A CAR, MUCH LESS A 80,000 LB VEHICLE IN THAT STUFF !  Anyway, I just got worse, it was dark for most of the time, when I got to Laramie WY and all the way to east side of Cheyenne WY, OMG !!!!!  Company policy is no driving on ICE, it was really heavy wet snow, just like a half melted slushy on the road. But you could not see more than 1/8 of a mile. Then we had to stop and get fuel, and we nearly froze us to death, we were wet because it was blowing sideways and covering the truck with snow (and us) even under the awning !  When I started driving again, the windshield was freezing up, so the defroster was on full speed and I was about to die from the heat !!! 

I guess if I can make it through that stuff without a cigg, I can make it through not having gum (although I was chomping every last bit of nicotine out of the gum I had !!!) LMAO !!  Now I guess I'll just chomp on my husbands leg while he is sleeping :>Q

Ya'll take care, KEEP YOUR QUITS GOING, STAY CLOSE TO THE COMMUNITY, and GOD BLESS YOU ALL !
