Full-Time/no smoking

[slojae]

I'm getting full-time status at work... which means my medical/dental benefits will be better, they match my 401k contributions, i get whole day pay for holidays (instead of half) my profit sharing checks will be bigger, etc etc etc... YAY... I've been trying to get this for six months and they're finally going for it

Good luck. It is my understanding out of any, and MANY habits that exist for us humans quiting smoking is one of the top three. I didn't understand for a while why my friends couldn't just not smoke. I use to be a social smoker, you know that. If I was drinkin' I was smokin. Not a lot, but still. And I found for me personally it just got in the way for me and what *I* want to accomplish. I have better breath and vocal power because I don't smoke. And being an esthetician I need to have good skin and smoking really dries me out. I'm babbling. All I mean is I understand that it is hard, although I've never done it. I understand that you have to make the choice and follow through only for yourself and no one else.

So I give you kudos, props, brownie points and a hug, along with a high five a rabbits foot, a lucky charm and a smile on this very difficult but worth it venture.

Good luck and congrats! It sounds like you have a lot of positive life changes in the works.

Do you know of any support groups for the no-smoking thing? Other people quitting who can help you get through the rough patches?
