Here I go again, tomorrow is the last first day.

[Raider]

End of Day 12. Today was a helluva lot better than yesterday. I decided to not do anything that could possibly kill me today, which as far as I can tell is a good thing. No craves or urges to speak of. I was too busy for any honestly. I have found that being occupied is very helpful. My jaw hurts from chewing gum (or from falling off the roof) so I switched to sunflower seeds. Took a couple pinches off Smokey Mountain and to be honest with ya'll, it probably will be the last can for me. The past 12 days have been full of events that would have normally caused me to cave but I stood strong and resisted. I try to stay up late to Post Roll around midnight because that leaves no room for error in the morning for me. For those of you who are "newbies", listen to what people are telling you. The first three days suck, the first couple weeks suck less. Good night all and happy quitting.

To end this post, all I have to say to the evil NB is    'Finger'

Good work. Hey, if the SM is working for you keep a spare in the car and/or work bag. It may save your quit one day. There is nothing wrong with the fake if it is working to keep the real stuff out of your yapper. It's just another tool.

Thanks and that is a great idea. I am fortunate that our grocery store just down the road also sells it. I will definitely have one for long road trips.

This has nothing to do with dip. In regards to my falling off he roof yesterday and a recent post about proper punctuation:
Big ass bruise
And
Big, ass bruise
Both work.

Big ass bruise for a Bad Ass Quitter?
or
Big, ass bruise for a Bad, Ass Quitter?
(Look what you started Pinched!)

End of day 11. Today started out like shit, turned to shit in the middle, but the end turned out ok (not quit as shitty). Woke up this am with one helluva crave which then turned into a headache. Worked through it and got the kiddos off to school. Went to a friends cabin to be sure everything was fine because of the snow, wind, and rain. Decided, like a dumbass, to clear the debris off the roof so it doesn't clog up the gutters. Fell off the damn roof. Smacked my Mellon, messed up my leg (not broken), and busted my ass. STILL DIDNT CAVE!!!!!  For some reason , this morning I picked up some Smokey Mountain. Thank GOD. I needed a pinch of something today and the SM did the trick. I vowed to stay quit and I did. Keep on quitting my brothers and sisters.

Ok, brother, that's a suck ass day!
And... I only laughed a li'l bit.

This is what we're talking about! You had a shitty day. Not because of ANYTHING related to your quit but because... sometimes life deals you a shitty day. That's just how it goes. None of what happened would have been any better or less painful with a dip. You see that right!?

Big win dude. Huge.

and let that be a lesson to ya. Never live where there is snow, Never go to a friends cabin without booze, Never clear out gutters from the roof, and never, ever, wake up in the am. Are we clear?

In all seriousness, you passed the test. I had it all planned for you today to make sure you could stay quit and you did. Tomorrow I will ease up on you.

Sincerely, Nic Bitch.

Glad you got some smokey mountain to fight the NB.

Picked it up before heading to the lake to clear the roof of debris, which never got done anyhow. I know where my sources of the cancer in a can are and several are on the way. Threw some SM in and felt good to go, until I fell off the damn roof.

Great job today raider. It is good to celebrate your victories.

As you are learning the good days will soon begin to out number the bad. That is a fact that I can state with 100% certainty. Ask anyone who has been quit for 6 months or more, and they will say the same. The length of time this takes is different for every quitter.

But be cautious raider, for the bad days do come and they often come with a vengeance. Be ready! Have the tools at your fingertips. Make that promise each morning and stay true to it. Guard this quit with your life friend, you may not get another chance at it. For many people it can take years to muster up the nuts to actually march down this road. Your sir, are marching. Keep it up. If you need another number to add to your arsenal, do not hesitate to hit me up with a PM.

What in the hell are you doing on the roof?

Falling apparently. At least I wasn't fapping. A new word I learned on here.

My attempt to clean the pinecones was a complete failure. Maybe someday I will use my fucking head and wait till someone is there to help me. Stupid is as stupid does.
