THIS TIME I'M GOING TO DO IT.... I HOPE!!

I don't mean work out how to emboss text off the printer. Oh no, gave up on that idea. The embossing pen was a great idea (thanks, Foxy) but it's just too thick and I couldn't make it look neat. So I'm sticking with the idea of printing it in a shade of grey that looks silver. Thanks for the ideas, lovely peeps!!

NO!

Today at ten o'clock I will put on my patch and stop smoking. I hope. After 20-odd years. I'll feel better, I'll be able to breathe properly, I'll have more money, I won't be one of those sad folks standing outside in the rain and wind like a social pariah, there won't be fag ends everywhere AND Lil G will stop nagging me!! I'm doing it for her as much as for me.

I've tried before, many times. But this time, I HAVE to do it.

I only started cos I was living in France and all my school friends smoked. I was already the odd one out, being English, and I thought it was a cool thing to do. How stupid is that?

So spare a thought for me today. Off for a final fag now!!!

Good luck with the stopping smoking. I've never smoked so can't understand how difficult it must be. Sending positive vibes though!

Good Luck, I'm sure you can do it, I Did! I stopped 4 years ago when I had my little girl Rebecca. Before that I used to smoke about 20 a day! and quite enjoyed it too! but I am so glad I gave up and will never smoke again. I have tried one since, when my little Rebecca was very poorly and it made me fell so ill so that put a stop to that! I found it hard giving up, but being pregnant was my incentive, it might be a bit extreme though! Zoex

Hope all goes well! Why not save all your smoking money so that you can buy even more crafty items to add to your stash.
