I'm committing to all of you kind souls that I will not smoke this weekend.
However, I would gladly welcome any hints or helpful tricks to keep me from smoking.
I'd like to take some quilting but have had carpel tunnel surgery and it is still 'ouchy'.
Another good mental trick. Every time you think about smoking again, remember the cost and how it's much more fun to spend that money on fabric instead. :-)
