And the need to replace the act of smoking with something else...like eating. Most people that quit smoking gain weight.

I've heard that quitting smoking can be very hard.

My grandfather did all kinds of drugs like heroin, marijuana, tobacco. And he did this for years. Then one day he said, "I'm done" and never smoked again.
Unfortunately the year after he quit he was diagnosed with COPD.

I figured quitting now is the best before it's super hard in the future. Having the cold from hell really helped those first few weeks when the cravings are the worst. Didn't feel good to smoke because of the bronchitis, tasted and smelled bad because of the sinus infection and moving was hell because of the double ear infection. Knock on wood, since quitting I haven't gotten strep throat, sinus infection or ear infection. Or had bronchitis.

Smoking is an oral fixation, food is the logical substitute.

COPD is generally a health hazard of smoking. The sufferer has problems with their lungs exchanging good oxygen and carbon dioxide.

Honestly, I am surprised with how well some of my friends are health wise after years of doing drugs. Super scary watching them lose themselves in Heroin or Crystal Meth.

Thankfully one of them has pulled it together and she is off heroin, living the clean life. Glad to have her back. She wasn't the same when she was using and it made me terribly sad. Now she is mostly herself again and has a great girlfriend to boot. Wish we lived closer to each other, just not how it has worked out. No way Tara will move out here...much too hot she says.

Not sure how, but my pillow managed to beat me up during the night and my left shoulder aches. Starting to drive me crazy. Pretty sure your pillow isn't suppose to beat you up.

Yeah it is scary what drugs do to a person.
My grandfather was so messed up on drugs, when he finally quit he was asking my mom all of these questions about herself because when he was on the drugs he never noticed anything about her.

Some times it seems like the stuff that is suppose to make you comfortable, attacks you. So not right.

Trying to figure out when Rodd and I will go to the water park near us. United Blood Service is handing out free tickets to the water park to donors for the month of July. Got two tickets already, with another one coming to me on Sunday. Definitely want to go to the water park during the work week, less people, more fun for us.

That sounds like fun.
I haven't been to a water park in years, but when I did go I had a lot of fun.

Been quite awhile for me as well, Ava. The last time I went it was when I still lived in California and my friend Jenny went with me to Hurricane Harbor. It's the water park right next to Magic Mountain. We packed our own lunch, got a locker in the water park, rented tubes and rode around on the lazy river. When we got tired of that we hit the wave pool. Never really did any of the slides because of the lines, mostly the endless/lazy river and the wave pool.

Might strangle the assistant that is out in the other office. She had me print checks, no problem there, it's the having to reprint them because she didn't make sure they were correct the first time. Talk about annoying. Guess no one follows the adage of "Measure twice and cut once" anymore.

it has also been a long while since I have been to a water park but those are so fun. I am glad to hear that you are getting free tickets to one of those for being so generous in helping others with your blood donations queenie <3

I know where Magic Mountain is! :D
That is so much fun, I am definitely going to check out that water park when I move out to California this year.


I'm very excited! My friend in Vermont (that I met online) made me a beautiful quilt and it arrived today. I absolutely love it, I will take pictures to show you all when I can.

That's so nice of them! That's a really big deal, quilts are so time consuming and expensive (material) to make. That's very special and sweet ^^
