GUESS WHAT?!

GUESS WHAT?! As of today?...I am 70 days cigarette free!...I am SO over smoking cigarettes and this is how I know...On October 13th, I work up from a very vivid dream and posted it on my FB page:

OMG!...I had the weirdest dream!...I dreamed that a friend took me to a special event where Bill Gates would be speaking...we went through all kinds of crazy security to get to the area where the meeting was being held...it was sort of like an auditorium style seating in an outdoor area, but still enclosed...I noticed that I knew a bunch of people sitting at a special table down in front...I went down to say hello and was invited to sit with them...it turned out to be a birthday celebration...Bill came out with a bunch of other people and they were all sitting at a long table about to hold the discussion when they realized the people sitting at the table were old friends celebrating a birthday...he got up and invited a few of them to the back room...I figured they'd be a while, so I got up and was going to see if there was anywhere to go vape/smoke...then I realized I didn't have one with me and my friend lent me hers and told me how to get outside through a side door...so, I went outside and was vaping and looking all around and thinking I wish I had my camera or my phone so I could take pictures...as I was going back inside, a man, who appeared to be wet, like he just got out of the shower or has been swimming, approached me and asked me if he could borrow my computer...I was like "I don't live here, I'm just here as a guest, my computer is about 5 hours from here"...he's walking along with me and I'm thinking "why is this guy all wet? very odd"...as I approach the door to go back in, I tell him he shouldn't be here unless he was invited and I go inside...I take the vapor back to my friend and head back to my friends when I see the guy standing by the door and I think "I should let security know what happened"...I try to act like nothing is wrong and that I don't see the guy, but now he's dry and dressed differently than he was just a few minutes before...I turn to go find security when a guy walks out in a military style uniform with a helmet and a headset on...I tell him about the guy and suddenly, the guy starts walking toward the stage area...I notice he has a huge knife and what appears to be a suicide bomber vest strapped to his chest and I point to the guy and say "that's him! HE HAS A KNIFE AND BOMBS!"...the guard chase him and begins shooting and I start freaking out and I'm thinking as I'm running "All that training in security all these years just paid off!"...I run back up to where my friend is to tell her what is happening and she's gone...total chaos everywhere...my friend is gone and I start getting suspicious and start looking around...I was crying and screaming he had a bomb!...then I woke up!...it was crazy!!...the most interesting part of that dream?...I wasn't smoking cigarettes...that means that they are no longer a part of who I am anymore...

The following post won me a free bottle of e-juice: 

I was a smoker for over 30 years...my mother died from smoking, my grandmother died from smoking and I was doomed to smoke on my death bed I was so hooked on cigarettes...I tried everything to quit and I do mean EVERYTHING, I was a hardcore smoker!...a friend knew I was trying to find something, anything to help me quit and was always after me to try vaping, that's how he quit...so, finally I just got a wild hair and decided it was now or never and went and got a starter kit, I didn't even pick a quit date, I just did it!...I needed something the was the same as smoking, tasted like smoking and addressed my severe nicotine addition...I quit cigarettes the first day and it was painless and anxiety free...I had a half a pack of cigarettes in my car and 7 new packs in a carton...I took a couple of hits off a cigarette at the end of day two to see what the difference in taste and feel was and almost gagged...I gave away all of my cigarettes that day and haven't touched a cigarette in 66 days...I started at 18mg and stepped down to 11mg on day 58...it is my goal to be nicotine free by New Years...I don't wear my vapor on a lanyard because I don't want to be tied to it the same way I was chained to cigarettes for so long, but it's there when I need it...I like smoking, but it's bad for you (vaping doesn't have all those harmful tars and chemicals), I'm addicted to nicotine and needed to wean off, the same way I started my addiction...with vaping, I can step all the way down to 0mg and still "smoke" if I want to (I might try some of the candy flavors when I'm off nicotine, LOL)...I'm stepping down every two large bottles of liquid and I've noticed that I don't use as much nicotine vaping as I did when I was smoking cigarettes, either...in 58 days I would have smoked about 116 packs of cigarettes, but I only vaped the equivalent of 90 packs of cigarettes...those 116 packs would have cost me around $460, vaping 90 packs cost me around $95 (including my initial investment in the kit and two large bottles of liquid), you do the math!...cigarettes had been my "friend" when no one else was...I even had a few drinks and didn't want a cigarette...I'm losing my home to foreclosure and going through a really tough time and I haven't even wanted the first cigarette...I even dreamed I was vaping, instead of smoking (that's how I knew I was no longer a smoker)...the best part of all, because this mimics smoking, I haven't replaced cigarettes with food and haven't gained the first ounce!...I'm here to tell you cigarettes are not your friend...start vaping and get free once and for all...good luck and best wishes...as for me?...I will NOT be smoking on my death bed...and for the record, I still go outside, same as I did when I was a smoker, out of respect...♥
