Tuesday will be two weeks post surgery and things are going pretty well all things considered. I find myself fantasizing the "good times" I used to have with ol copenhagen from time to time but I know that this is just my brain re-training itself. I am enjoying the break from work (still have 4 weeks before I can go back) but I do get a bit of cabin fever from time to time. At least the days are getting longer and hopefully nice weather is on the way. Thank you all for the well wishes, I have not been as active on the site since surgery but now that I am getting around a little better I'm trying to get back.
Good to hear! Keep the faith.
A whole new granger on the way!

An idle mind is the devils workshop. Hope you are staying busy as you heal - it will help keep those craves at bay. You've come a long way. Between the new back and drug free mind, you'll be a whole new you soon.
Trying to stay busy but I am not allowed to do much so it gets difficult. People were in and out helping me for the last two weeks but I'm spending a lot more time on my own now that I can get around a little better. I thought being quit for 40+ days before surgery would make it super easy to keep my mind off the shit while off work for 6 weeks but sometimes 50+ days feels more like day 5. The craves don't have the duration they did at 5 days but sometimes the intensity is still there.

Tomorrow's the day. Getting up bright and early to head to the hospital for surgery. The anxiety I have now makes the quitting anxiety seem like it was a joke.
You will feel so much better dude.

Prayers with you.
Here is to a speedy recovery!!
Today's the day! A whole new Nick!

Good luck today!
Brother hope today was a big step forward!
Praying for quick recovery Nick.
I believe.....
