Well, I'm the odd one out on this one, because it's not food that my Christmas traditions settle around, but people--lovingly remembering those that have passed away, and cherishing time with the ones that are still alive. I'm fortunate this Christmas season, as I have enough time off from work...
Not really. I was really happy when the era was over.
I'd much rather listen to Echo and the Bunnymen, Depeche Mode, and many of the others of the punk set.
Thanks for the great diet info--very much appreciated.
Uncle, you can get on your soapbox any time. There's lots of good information in your recent post that is worth following up on.
Thanks, Alisa, for the ketogenic diet link. It got me searching on Google for recipes, and I found this one...
I found something to satisfy the chocolate craving--well, for me, anyway. If you like hot chocolate, take one tablespoon of Fry's or Hershey's baking cocoa, add 2-3 packets of Splenda, stir around to get rid of the lumps, add a small amount of water to combine the cocoa and sweetener, add to a...
It could be a combination of no cigs and reduction of sugar that has helped you so much, Claudia. Really happy you're feeling so well these days! Keep up the good work :banana: :banana: :banana:
Meanwhile, in the frigid north, I'm also working on harm reduction. Still smoking, but now have...
...a chat and support thread. I know we get off-topic often, but we've become a close-knit group, and feel we can talk with each other, and rant when we need to, about anything and everything that's going on in our lives. All of us here still belong to this thread, because we are all still...
((((Shari)))) I've read your recent posts, but I can't like them. It's hard when we lose a loved one at any time of year, but especially so at Christmas, because it's supposed to be a time of joy.
Of course you're lost and overwhelmed. You've just been given a whole bunch of bad news all at...
Good evening, all! Just got off work a little while ago, and I'm all caught up with reading the latest posts.
I'm with most everyone here about decorating for Christmas. My apartment is small, and I don't entertain much--all of my family is out of town. So, although I have decorations, they...
Good morning all! It's a chilly morning in these parts, with a new blanket of snow on the ground, and more to fall throughout the day. It's 21 degrees now, and it will fall to 16 degrees by the time I get off work tonight. Oh joy :|
Shari, I don't like that the accident, but I'm so thankful that you and your DH were not involved in it, and were able to return home safe and sound.
(((((Vicki))))) Sweet, gentle God!! My heart just aches for you right now. Words, however kind, can't mend your heartache: but all of us care...
Good evening, all! Just got off work a little while ago, and caught myself up on the posts.
(((Top))) I'm sorry your little one's not well. Hopefully it is just a cold and he gets well soon.
(((Aikanae))) I'm sorry for the loss of your cockatiel. Our furred and feathered babies mean a...
You have an interesting avatar, Aikanae. If I recall correctly, it's one of Frieke Jannsens' controversial but intriguing "Smoking Kids" collection of photo art.
Karen, my thoughts and prayers are with you when you go to the hearing.
Shari, it's unfortunate that you had to go through that entire process and still be denied any assistance. You've given Karen sound advice for proceeding in her own case, and I really hope she takes heed of it...
You may be just recently chiming in, but please stay with us for as long as like. All of us are in this together to give each other support and guidance. All of are on different parts of the same journey--to break the chains of analog addiction.
Please don't leave :cry:
You, Thaya, Alisa, FQ and Shari are inspirations to all of us here--knowing you have succeeded at quitting smoking through vaping gives me hope that I can, too. Yes, I'm still struggling between both worlds, but your struggles to stay smoke-free are very important to...
I remember when I first started smoking, cigs were 65 cents a pack, and I used matches to light them. Those were the days I was sent to the store with a note to buy my dad's rolling tobacco and papers. Smoking back then was "cool."
Nowadays, even with the ban on advertising cigs, "dark"...
