Lilly, you are too funny. I have always dabbled in my own hair coloring and have had every color imaginable (not on purpose), thankfully the people I work with are so used to it , they don't even notice anymore. Congrats on making it through, isn't it funny how we can cope without a smoke? ;) [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B]12/6/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 96 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 2,880 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $360.00 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 7 [B]Hrs:[/B] 20 [B]Mins:[/B] 21 [B]Seconds:[/B] 18

Just thought I would check in it�s over a week since I was able to post. I miss you all I am not keeping up as well as I would like to its difficult here at the moment we are at the end of a finical year and it�s very busy. I just took a look at some of the posts I see some quits are great new ones and some 30-40 days and 50 days and a year even five years Congratulations to all of you sorry I missed the big days wish you all the very best. I am doing ok at the moment some bad day�s but mostly good ones, Don�t seem to crave as much these day�s although I had a near miss the weekend I�ll tell you if I didn�t smoke last weekend chances are I will never smoke again it was madness, First of all I locked my car keys in the car had to ring my son to go to my house get the spare key and come to the supermarket and open the car I then went to another shopping centre to get other items came out after an hour or so and couldn�t find my car I lost my car, can you believe it. Eillis would know the shopping centre in question anyone could loose their car there( Liffey Valley) I just couldn�t ring again and ask for someone to come and find my car talk about being stressed I was strung out so I went and bought a coffee and walked around till I found my car It took about 40 minutes But the interesting thing was I never thought about smoking it never entered my head this tells me I am winning I am actually beating the habit well at least I thought I was. Now Saturday night was a different story I would have smoked anything a pipe if I could have found one. Here is what happened I have very dark brown hair and I was thinking I�ll get a colour and give it a lift treat myself , I never did this before but I thought sure it�s not rocket science I�ll be well able to do this BUT obviously there is a knack to it, buying the right colour is important and how long you leave it in is crucial, Just wish I new all this before hand, I put the colour in my hair delighted with myself played a bit of music waited and then rinsed out my hair and to my horror it turned out bright red I�ll tell you people I was glowing in the dark, panic set in, there is no where open to get something to fix it I�ll tell you if I had found anything to smoke at that stage I would have but I had nothing thankfully the interesting thing is I got by it hopefully it will always be like this. Anyway I think I have learned my lesson, don�t dabble in what you know nothing about get the experts to do it. My daughter in law put right on Sunday after she and my son had good laugh. Sorry for going on but it�s good to talk to you all. Hope to be back soon take care. N.O.P.E.
