Re: Leonard, smoking..and me
Wish I could give up the weed, good day's I have a couple, Bad day's 10, But the reason for this post is my grandson age 7yrs this month, is also called Arlo after the great Arlo Guthrie, and I were wondering why your daughter/son came up with the great name. ? (",)

Dear Seadove,
thanks for the lyrics: the template of my life.
Wornoutcowboy, your post is instructive, informative, and bloody welcome.
B4Real, thanks for the links....good material here .
Lizzy, as aye, thanks for the support.
Right now I'm on patches; descending from 21mg to 14 mg of nicotine. The new regime kicks in this weekend .
I will keep the faith. I DON'T WANT TO SMOKE FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE.
Yours, "so far, so good",
Andrew.
P.S. I won't kill for one moment of the instant hit, that gorgeous suck....that's all in the past.

Re: Leonard, smoking..and me
Just be certain you don't smoke atop the patches! I knew someone once who did that, only to learn they were at least DOUBLING Their intake of nicotine... a quicker way to suicide .
Yes... I felt the same as you do about Wornoutcowboy's post. Was so happy to see it and thought how THAT post would be one you could/would surely resonate with.

Re: Leonard, smoking..and me
I'm not sure how to reply to a head exploding experience.
What I can say is that I wanted a cigarette today, at half -past-one post meridiem. ( 1330 GMT).
I didn't have it.
Yes, after all the "good work" I've done, it still draws me back, and always will.
"If it be my will, I'll smoke no more".......
NOT an easy day, yet the Spring sun poured warmth and gentle rain on everyone walking up Bath Street at half-past-six this morning.I invited myself into this congregation of glory. There were some smokers present. I know, for I firstly observed their motions, then sucked them all inside my mind.
There are more important things going on.....smoking , surely, isn't one of them.
If HE can do it, then so can I.
Andrew.
