Thanks Dee! I think I'll take a dip in the pool! 

Welcome Becka!

sorry to hear about the 5months slip. But very happy you back here with us.

it shows me that we can never be vigilant enough. Makes me worry though. It takes so much energy to stay positive and to keep fighting. 

Let us do this together

Oh Liz , I will gladly swop with you. I will choose the english cold weather anyday above the sweltering African sun.

hope all is going well

Hi Hester,

Have to say this weekend has been a struggle. 

And spent a lot of time in bed trying  to ignore the feelings. Going to try to stay busy this afternoon. Think things will improve if I get past the weekend. 

How are you, you’re doing brilliantly 

Congratulations Bev.

Hey there Becka,

Welcome home.  Good to see you back and working on getting off that stop start roller coaster ride.

Never give up!!

Hi there Hester,

It is entirely possible to relax into your quit and be effortlessly vigilant.  It is not a 24/7 fight to do so.   It's all about keeping your memory green (why you wanted/needed to quit in the first place) and not falling into complacency.
