Hi ya Wendy, I suppose it must be very difficult when one is very controlling, hopefully during your alone time you can work out some issues... good luck with that. Yep, you are almost a month of being a non smoker... you have done so well that you even amazed yourself - WOOHOO!
Not too worry about the stressing out on this site...that is what we are all here for, to let it all out when you need a sounding board and to listen when it`s needed. It`s always nice to know there is a place where you can vent.
Are you getting the awful storm up your way? It`s pretty bad here... hope you are having a good week-end

yes wendy ,you stay strong, how is your day going , my in not to bad , did a little of house cleaning this afternoon but the rest is on the computer, should be cleaning out my closets by i will have lots of time for that, it is blowing so hard here that you can not see a thing , i have to go to work tonight so it better calm done. have a good day wendy and talk to you soon., have not got a chance to go see the puppies will wait for a bit till it really warms up we do not get the puppie till the middle of april so we have lots of time to go and see them they live a little ways away so it will have to be on a weeekend or so

Hi Wendy...I certainly see the strength so don`t doubt that you have it. With all the stress you have been under you still did not give in to temptation and you have not smoked for 3 weeks. That says STRENGTH to me! I don`t know your husband but it does seem unreasonable to threaten divorce because of a difference of opinion on how to discipline the girls. They are no doubt excited about their trips therefore sleep is the last thing on their minds. Perhaps a better solution to divorce would be a discussion between him and you regarding the discipline and perhaps come to an agreement with both of you can work with. Certainly yelling and threats about cancelling their trips just because they wouldn`t go to sleep right away seems a little drastic and once the two of you have some alone time you and he can discuss all the issues. I hope you guys can work everything out - good luck

Oh I forgor try yoga or something to keep the stress down it might help learning to breathe in a way that helps reduce the stress. luv ya.

Hey, i am sorry if I hit a nerve, but you need to know the truth about the habit. I wouldn`t of said anything if I didn`t care and I do. You are better than that smoke, you should be proud if you go one day without it, and so should your family, Keep up the good work and you are worth it!

hey there wendy, out of the total of 5 puppies 4 survied 1 black and white , 1 white one , one like yogi was excactly the redish brown and white and 1 red, black and white so we get first pick of the litter so any time we want to go and see then we can but i will wait for a little while , it is -30 some today brrrr cold to have a litter if you ask me , , but nature calls , i am so excited i proberly will pick the white and black he fiquirds it is a girl i kind of wanted a boy but we will see when we see them all, take care and talk to you soon and keep up the good work of not smoking.

Gosh Wendy,,,thats crappy,,,I would be wondering why you husband always brings up divorce everytime you all have a little tiff...I am worried about you,,,really do hope everything is OK,,I am here if you need to talk,,don`t worry about blabbering on,,,friends are for listening,,email at procter8@hotmail.com or here send me a message,,I will be online most of the day,,David has gone fishing again til tomorrow,,,so I will be close by,,,
Your Friend,,,Cindy

hii wendy:)just keep staying positive,im sorry to hear about your friend.Things will get better ,they always do if you have the right state of mind,and you seem to be right on track:)
have a wonderful monday!!

I haven`t been on the computer these last few days which is the reason I haven`t replied. It`s nice to hear that your hubby is being supportive, that certainly makes things a little easier. I wonder why some men don`t like their wives on the computer??? I guess that they don`t use the computer so they can`t figure out what we do on it for hours on end.
Anyway, I am sure you have blogged over the last few days so I am to try and catch up.
Have a good week

hi there artsee , thanks for the comment on my photo`s i have to go out and take some more , they were driving us nuts on saturday and so we kicked them outside for a while , we were baking..

Hi, sorry to hear you`re having a challenging day. I would attempt to quit smoking...now is not the time for me. I hope you will be gentle with yourself. Quitting smoking is very difficult. I have a friend who works in Detox and he says that quitting smoking is more difficult than getting off heroine. The withdrawl is longer and the physical and emotional impact is longer lasting. I must look thru my stuff for the changing habits info and the other stuff I have that may be helpful, if you like I could send some to you. Oh, I recall the Addiction Research Center in Toronto (they provided information to people in the past to quit whatever) they told me to drink lots of juice - especially juice high in vitamin C - to help rid the body of the nicotine. It takes months to get it out of your blood and body. Be gentle - remember letting go of an addiction is extremely difficult and withdrawl is inevitable. Sending calm and peace to you today. Debra
