Good morning, GUSwabbits!!!!!!! No matter your religion or non-religion, who doesn't love bunnies and good food????? Ok, maybe some of you crankypants.
GUS (Gave Up Smoking) is a community support diary for Kossacks in the midst of quitting smoking. Any supportive comments, suggestions or positive distractions are appreciated. If you are quitting or thinking of quitting, please -- join us! We kindly ask that politics be left out.
You can also click the GUS tag to view all diary posts, or access the GUS Library at dKosopedia for a great list of stop-smoking links. Check it out! GUS library.
A message to ALL quitters. You don't have to avoid GUS if you have a failed quit. We won't give you a bad time and we consider the failed quits as "practice" for the real quit.
Quit Keeper widget which is an outstanding aid for those beginning the difficult path to quitting. It lets you know how long you haven't smoked, how many cigs you haven't smoked, how much money you've saved.
Quit Smoking Counter h/tGDbot. For those of you who have had a problem with Quit Keeper or want a different counter!
I wanted to stay in my pajamas all weekend. I was coerced out today (which is actually Saturday when I'm typing) because my landlord lost his wallet and I had to get him in his truck, deal with his awful driving to retrieve it at the last place he was today. Ok, wallet retrieved, I needed food, we walked to the local eatery and he paid for my meal and left.
Today, meaning the real today rather than the above mentioned today which, when you read this thing, was yesterday, are you still following me??? I am going to Easter "dinner" at 1:00 EDT at this amazing woman's home. She's the Italian mother in law of the office genius/paralegal/administrative assistant/goddess. There will be 30 different dishes and great fun. The woman is my mother's age -- 86 -- and utterly wonderful.
I'm in a work crisis but have amazing people of good "faith" and heart and soul surrounding me. Resurrection for me is getting up in the morning and being with or thinking of a person who loves and/or cares for me. Thinking of someone who is proud that I quit smoking over a year ago.
Many blessings to my wonderful online GUS friends who make me smile and remind me that there are flawed humans who are better than a good lasagna.
New voices are ALWAYS appreciated and always welcome.

And at the same time I post my genius Sunday Open Thread, don't forget to stop by, tip and rec
Solid science education is the best inoculation against ignorance.
The Inoculation Project meets Sundays at 10 am ET / 7 am PT to help fund science and math projects in red-state public school classrooms and grow more rational voters. Join us at the link each week to cheer on our effort -- no cash required, but even small donations make a big difference!
