Toughest day so far!  We sold our rental home and our tenant is in China for work. Our tenant is our friend, but we had to pack up all of his shit and rent a U Haul and get it into a storage place he set up. After all that loading and driving etc, we get to the storage site and open the door, plan out where we will put everything and my husband packs his lip. Right there within 3 feet of me. That was the first time since I quit that I actually wanted it. For 2.5 seconds I really wanted it. I went to the cab of the truck, into my purse and got my smokey mountain. I used half a can of smokey mountain in about 4 hours.  Damn I hated today.  I went from one day at a time to minute by minute again.  That's okay. Whatever I have to do. I can adjust. QLF  Thanks KO for talking tonight. You are a rock star!
There have been time that each of us had to take it minute by minute. You won the day and that is what counts. ODAAT. You are a Bad Ass Quitter BAQ..
Yinet, you are winning girl!!! I had a day like that on day 42. I went therough a hole can of smokey mtn that day. Im glad you did what you did, you did right and in my opinion those days that we beat like that, ARE HUGE. You made my quit stronger today reading that. Thanks for shareing !!

The poison sucks. I hate it. I hated it this morning, I hated it at noon, I hated it at supper and I hate it tonight. I enjoy hating it so much I'm going to wake up tomorrow and start over hating it. I quit with anyone that wants to hate it with me.

That's bad ass! Sometimes we have to go back to minute by minute. After this much time though you at least have an arsenal of tools that I'm sure made it easier then when you first quit. We have our bad days / moments, but we are becoming well equipped to deal with them. Well done!

Great job G. Way to resist and smart of you to have the SM near in case of emergency. It keeps getting easier and surprises like that in the future won't be so harsh. Hang in there. Your doing great. And I would also imagine that your example is planting seeds in your husband. Proud to be quit with you.

Proud to quit with you Ginet!!!!
Thanks fellas.

So Emulator and I text quite a bit. We are 72 hours apart on our quit, but solid quit buddies. This is our conversation as he is on day 50:

Me - Proud of you (insert real name)
Emulator - Well then you can't cave
Me- Never. This is who I am now. It's not on the table. It's not an option.

and then blows me away with this: Thanks Ginet, I'm following your lead!

Damn.
Another reason to remain quit..... Emulator needs my support as much as I need his. Can't risk that bond. Can't break that trust. Can't fail that honor.
That right there is the Kool-aide of KTC. Well done.
