You Did it Kaiser!!! You had a difficult situation thrown at you and you worked through it without Ol' Stinky Stick!! I'm so happy for you. Sad on the savings loss though, but with the money you are saving not smoking, it will get up there again soon. Give yourself a great reward this weekend, you deserve it!! [color=Red]redrosie[/color]

Hi Kaiser Hang on tight buddy. Are you at home or work? Do not leave. Do not go to the store or bum a smoke. Because of time differences I'm not sure how long you have to wait to get your answer as to what is going on. 1 hour? You can get through this without a smoke!!! Go over to the Ash Kicker post and strut your stuff. Our list is not so big any more. We DO NOT want to lose you too!! Keep Close and stay Strong, you will work this out. [color=Red]redrosie[/color]

Pace the halls, suck coffee, kick a garbage can! Whatever it takes to get you through. It's only 1/2 an hour now. You are getting through this without a cigarette!! Keep typing, keep pacing. I KNOW you won't let anyone done especially yourself. [color=Red]redrosie[/color]

Take some deep breaths Kaiser. You know that smoking will not change a thing. All kinds of things happen in life and the hardest part of quitting for me has been learning how to deal with them without the crutch. Throw the crutch to the side, you don't need it anymore. You are in the process of developing the skills you need to make it through life without smoking. Sometimes growth is painful but you know after 81 days that it is worth it.
So....
Breathe in :gasp: Breath out :8o:

Hang in there, Kaiser! I think the unknown is the worst stress of all. You'll get some answers soon and then you'll have something concrete you can deal with.
Until then, follow everyone's advice above.
