Then, think about my son whose father didn't quit smoking and is now dead. <BR/><BR/>Stark, but true.<BR/><BR/>With Father's Day on the hoizon, know that you are giving your CHILDREN the best Father's Day gift ever. Your presence.<BR/><BR/>xoxox<BR/>pgPanthergirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03701693312528047037noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7604824.post-1148684405552583412006-05-26T16:00:00.000-07:002006-05-26T16:00:00.000-07:00I must be a remedial ex-smoker...because I quit Ch...I must be a remedial ex-smoker...because I quit Christmas day and STILL find myself frequently stuck for <I>nouns</I>.

Normal. Yeah. That's it. <BR/><BR/>To this day, once in a rare while, usually when I am horribly stressed, I still have a craving and, should I pass by where someone is smoking a clove cigarette, well, you may have to pull me off of them. BUT, you can do it. It's better than giving yourself another way to get dead sooner.Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10434322752121785631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7604824.post-1148559182753451222006-05-25T05:13:00.000-07:002006-05-25T05:13:00.000-07:00Yep, I'll second (third?) that, it was very distra...Yep, I'll second (third?) that, it was very distracting at first but I think now my brain works as well as it ever did. Well, maybe not, but I'm fuzzy-headed for different reasons now, notably age, excessive college, and motherhood.alalahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08504045003702100248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7604824.post-1148476300132933632006-05-24T06:11:00.000-07:002006-05-24T06:11:00.000-07:00The fuzziness will clear up - just give it some ti...The fuzziness will clear up - just give it some time. I've been smoke-free for about 10 years now, and it took about 3 months for the fog to lift as I remember. <BR/><BR/>Both Evil Dad and I still have cravings, but they clear right up when we think about his grandmother dying of lung cancer. Hang in there, Jim.

I dunno). But let me just say I quit smoking almost 13 years ago, and I did go through a brief period of muzzy-headed-ness, but I'm back to bitching as I vote for spineless Democrats, and reasonable clear-headed-ness today. Congrats on day 14!landismomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10328094347362872558noreply@blogger.com
