Boy have I missed you guys!Its going to take forever to get caught up on all the threads,but I will do my best.
So here's whats new with me...BIG IRONY here...first off..I am officially a non-smoker now...the desire for a smoke will always be there but the NEED for one is gone,here's the irony part...I am now suffering from a BRUTAL case of Bronchitis.Went to DR yesterday and actually had to have a breathing treatment while there my lungs were so bad.DR has me on all kinds of meds,she's worried that I may develop pneumonia for some reason.Something to do with the fact that I have so recently kicked my habit..hehehe.C'mon...you gotta LOVE the irony in that!Here I am...no longer smoking and all of a sudden I can't breathe at all!!!!!Mark is also doing well.I am so VERY proud of him.He has a DR appointment later today,I'm not sure if I'm going with him or not...it'll depend on how I feel later.I'm trying to get as much rest as possible.Its actually a good thing that I got sick,it has taken Marks mind off of his quitting...he has been so great...cooking..cleaning,even doing laundry.I am so very lucky to have such a fantastic hubby!
Lets see..what else...oh yeah....my Mackey is home from church camp.I swear he grew so much while he was gone!He made a "friend" while at camp...and SHE calls him pretty much everyday...and they IM on yahoo too....I'm not sure if I should laugh or cry
My mind is on Teri today...I am praying for her...well....thats about it for me and news....other than the fact that being on the bronchitis diet has left me 3 pounds lighter!So i finally got rid of the pound that was stalking me...
I guess I need to update my siggy...

Welcome back SIS! We have missed you!! You need to make sure you take care of yourself and get some rest!! Glad to have you back!!!

Becca, that is so fabulous that you and Mark both quit!! Yahoo! You must feel so good about yourself. Think about what a great gift you just gave yourselves and each other!!!! And your kids!! Your health will be so greatly improved from now on. Although I agree with your irony comment... :-) Sometimes that stuff happens!!

Anyway, congratulations and welcome back!!!!

LLLove,

Hi Becca,

Just about everyone I know got bad cough cold/cough when they stop smoking. Someone told me it has to do with the hairs in your throat having been burned away & making you more susceptible to germs once your throat is no longer coated with tars.

At any rate, sorry you are sick - but thrilled you have beaten the evil weed.

Give yourself a big pat on the back.

Love you,

Lynn
