My way may not work for everyone. I found out I was pregnant and the kiddo has become priority 1 since. :)

Finally. I officially quit on February 28th. After a particularly stressful event on March 20th, I partially smoked a couple of cigarettes that evening and one the next morning. It’s been over a month since then and I’m still smoke free! Yay! I can smell the air, taste my food, and I’m not throwing that desperately-needed money down a rat-hole. Even colors seem brighter. Amazing.
Hope this gives that extra nudge to those of you who are, and have been, so SO close. :D
This is EASY. Easier than knitting a sweater, even! If you learn to knit them from the toe up they are faster, easier, and you only have a couple of ends to weave in (no grafting @ the toe = GOOD). Look for a toe-up sock pattern (Wendy Johnson’s is good) and use a Turkish cast-on, and in just about no time (self-patterning sock yarn makes the knitting go so much faster because you can’t wait to see the pattern come alive), you have a pair of socks. Happy knitting!
