    Congratulation on your decision. Some helpful things - get a new toothbrush, cinnamon gum, use vinegar to clean the ashtray in the car, take a quick walk when the urge hits. Good luck quilting should really help-

    Congrats on quitting smoking! You might try putting an ad on Craig's List. Maybe someone will be glad to sell some of their inherited fabrics for cheap.

    January 15 will be 5 smoke-free years for me. I had tried everything but had no luck. when Chantix (prescription) first came on the market, I asked my doctor about it and he couldn't write the Rx fast enough. He almost did a happy dance. It was so easy with Chantix.

    Good luck with kicking the habit. One feels so much better after quitting - my lungs will celebrate a tenth smoke free year in August. Keeping your hands busy and drinking a glass of water everytime you want to reach for a cigarette really takes off the edge.

    I quit smoking via Chantix! That was about 6 years ago and yes, I had some really strange dreams, but they were no scarier than teaching 6th grade, which I did for 40 years. I kept telling myself that the dreams would go away when I quit the drug & they did. My pharmacist told me I would only need 1 prescription and that's all it took. Guess part of my habit was a stress reliever after dealing with those 10-12-year olds. Now I say I don't know which cost more, quilting or smoking!! I prefer quilting!
