I had quite but still the urges kept coming.
I have struggled with bi-polar disease for years and when I fall into the deep dark depression, I turn to the comfort of "My friend", knowing all the draw backs, I still did it.

I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...
Don't give in---keep your chin up and take it minute by minute, then hour by hour and then day by day---soon you will be smoke-free and loving it!!!!!
