Hi Deb..........

I just knew I was going to check in and find you on the cruise. Good for you Deb!!!!!!!

I remember in the past that this was a time that you've had some problems with. Maybe try to stay a little closer to your support system for a while.

I wish you only the best and I hope that your experience gets better and better. I know you have had some rough going. It is hard to realize that the tough times will pass when you are in the middle of it.

Now down to the important stuff. I decided that I will not be cabana boy..............................until you get to the beach. I have been back in C-Boy school getting my advanced degree in " Cabana-ing ??

See you there in about 46 days.

:) Thanks you guys. I'm gonna go pick up my new swimsuit for the cruise tomorrow.

This is the dangerous time period for me as far as relapse goes, so as I swipe on the sunscreen, I need to be extra careful about taking care of my quit.

Most of the time, I've been fine as far as cravings go. I still get hit hard by them once-in-awhile, but the depression thing is actually saving me. Because my energy is so low, when a craving hits and I think about all of the steps necessary to get myself to the store, I say to myself, 'Sheesh! Forget it-- too much work'. So I guess there are some gifts that come along with feeling down.

Lainy, I will for sure eat more veggies. And thank you for the flower Rock. That made me smile. MM, I think of you everyday

. Brenda, PB, and Karren, the medicine is starting to work so I can see some light at the end of this tunnel-- thanks for your empathy and understanding. And PB, laughter keeps me alive and is the best coping tool I've got. Dave, that was a very cool post. You are awesome. Thanks for being so supportive and encouraging. Kaiser, you poor folks are stuck with me I'm afraid :) This chicquita isn't going anywhere! Jan, do you realized that you've saved over $6,000.00?! Thanks for you support. And thank you too Josie for your kind and encouraging words. Todash! Thanks for dropping in. I always love to see you. Yeah, depression is a beast, and so is the nicodemon. They can both go take a long walk off of a short pier. I'm tired of both of them. Thank you Gimm! You're doing really great too! And thanks to you Tabby. I'm plan on hanging. Again, thanks for your support too.

I'll keep checking in! Much affection to you all and my thanks.

I am glad you are hanging in there Deb! It will get better! I ran across some really interesting reading lately and found out that a diet high in leafy greens really helps improve depression (as does excercise). So it may be worth the try to up your salad and broccoli intake! You are doing so great! Keep a plan in place for sudden stress (in case of emergency) and you will be fine! Keep the quit!
