Hi Locie, I'm great, thanks.
First day back at work today - what have I missed? I might have to spend the day reading the last weeks threads so I know where the market is at.
Smoke stories.
I used to smoke. I gave up when Winfield blue were $3.65 a packet and it was announced they were going up to $4.15. I had been trying to give up for a year for the obvious long term health benefits but kept going back. I found it hard to cope with the "I can't smoke" mentality I was serving up to myself - So, I bought a pack, sat them next to my bed and said "I can smoke but I choose not to." It worked. I had that unopened packet for years, it had no health warnings or ugly pictures. What a great collectors item, really - who collects cigarettes? Smokers can't help but smoke them and non-smokers wouldnt waste their money. Then a so-called friend stole them when she ran out of smokes!!!

I had a cigarette socially last week. I do that (rollies) maybe once every year or two. I have no cravings for them. The addiction is long gone. What works for one won't work for others, we just have to find our trigger voice and silence it, one way or another.



Happy New Year Everyone!
