Day 352 - 7/1/14
It has been quite some time since I posted in my own intro section and I thought I would add a fun story and avoid stepping into the drama filled cowpatties that grace this prairie.

This past weekend my 12 year old son and I spent a father/son weekend (4 days) in the Rocky Mountains. We rock climbed, zip lined, white water rafted and hiked. It was truly an amazing time, not only because my son and I did it together, but because I did it dip free. Not even once did I get a craving, or an urge. Let me tell you nature smells great at 14,000' with no Copenhagen wafting in the air.

As I near one year of being quit, I started to reflect on life happening and how I choose to quit in lieu of making either of these events be excuses:
- mother diagnosed with breast cancer
- loss of a loved one
- loss of my father's best friend and my "uncle"
- coached baseball
- ruptured ear drum
- constant sinus infections (finally gone)
- fighting over family possessions
- working on cars and bikes
- mother's knee went out
- crazy stress at work
- tons of work related travel
- spousal unrest
- broken fist (yeah self induced)
- repaired broken window and wall (related to above item)
- I am certain I missed some items above as well

So again, fuck it I quit, I posted roll, I texted and I promised. No one can change that today. I am here, I am quit and I will be back tomorrow. Granted I have been posting roll but only doing "the minimum" lately, that will change as I can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel...or perhaps that is a train.

I recommend you quit today, and go enjoy life,

>P<
Good to see u brother and the quit alive and kicking!!! Good decision staying clear of the turd infested minefield. Now can we get the avatar back??? ;)
Well Done Sir.

We all face those things you listed above. It's called Life.

It's how we deal with it and the decisions we make along the way that define who we are.

Keep killing it Pinched.
another shining example of owning the quit

The mundane life of quitting. Day in and day out. Well done!
Yes, in a previous life any one of those would be an invitation to cave. You got this brother and I'm proud to quit with you EDD
Well done! Most of us would have chosen to crater our quits for any of those reasons without having our KTC toolbelts. Now we get to enjoy that freedom! keep that quit building >P<!
Good to see you again Pinched. Whatever you got in the tank to give is appreciated. Glad you are feeling good!
Such a great quitter, awesome. So proud to be in this fight with you, and damn proud to quit with you all damn day.

Sitting on one full revolution around the sun...reflecting on a quit from hell

The first two weeks were just a blur, nothing but fog. Plus it took 2.5 weeks for a real "normal" vowel movement too. So yes I was absolutely full of shit then. The rest if that month was hell, but like many other weeks from hell they too were worth it. The rest of the 100 days were filled with my being a raging overly defensive asshole. No one was safe, I was ready to fight for any reason whatsoever. However, I still managed to be a dad a good citizen and a hard working guy. I helped build a new company during this time.

The next hundred were filled with many tests as well; followed by even more tests the next 100 days. My diagnosed with breast cancer, fighting with spouse, betrayal, deceit, work problems, fighting over my lat father's possessions, sickness, travel (and loads of it)...I never once felt my quit was in danger. I was an asshole dipper, the in your face kind of packing my whol lower lip full of shit, spit in your store, leave spit cups/cans everywhere. My kids just thought that was daddy...what an asshole. I would have rather been a ninja now that I look back on it. My wife is a saint there is no way around it, why she ever let me kiss her, fell in love with me or married me is a mystery to me (yeah we even have wedding photos of me dipping...asshole).

Yet here I sit, a quitter, I have no doubt that I will not dip again; though I am and always will be an addict I have tools and brothers in quit that have helped me for one year. I could just pack my bags and leave here and probably could remain quit; but I kind of like it here. I would miss the crazy uncle, the brothers, the lovely sisters and all of the others that are always willing to help a brother out when in need. A simple text, call, post it PM can really mean the difference between a cave and success. I see the path, and like the wonderful life it leads too, I will remain here until I am cured of my addiction. I now desire and honest and clean life, so I can enjoy being a father and husband that offers more good examples than bad; plus I want to have a tongue so later in life if I am blessed I can tell my grand kids stories about the silly shut their parents did.

KTC retirees, admins, mods, members and newbies thank you from the bottom of my heart. I may not be here writing this message if not for all of you,

The poison sucks. I hate it. I hated it this morning, I hated it at noon, I hated it at supper and I hate it tonight. I enjoy hating it so much I'm going to wake up tomorrow and start over hating it. I quit with anyone that wants to hate it with me.

Sitting on one full revolution around the sun...reflecting on a quit from hell

The first two weeks were just a blur, nothing but fog. Plus it took 2.5 weeks for a real "normal" vowel movement too. So yes I was absolutely full of shit then. The rest if that month was hell, but like many other weeks from hell they too were worth it. The rest of the 100 days were filled with my being a raging overly defensive asshole. No one was safe, I was ready to fight for any reason whatsoever. However, I still managed to be a dad a good citizen and a hard working guy. I helped build a new company during this time.

The next hundred were filled with many tests as well; followed by even more tests the next 100 days. My diagnosed with breast cancer, fighting with spouse, betrayal, deceit, work problems, fighting over my lat father's possessions, sickness, travel (and loads of it)...I never once felt my quit was in danger. I was an asshole dipper, the in your face kind of packing my whol lower lip full of shit, spit in your store, leave spit cups/cans everywhere. My kids just thought that was daddy...what an asshole. I would have rather been a ninja now that I look back on it. My wife is a saint there is no way around it, why she ever let me kiss her, fell in love with me or married me is a mystery to me (yeah we even have wedding photos of me dipping...asshole).

Yet here I sit, a quitter, I have no doubt that I will not dip again; though I am and always will be an addict I have tools and brothers in quit that have helped me for one year. I could just pack my bags and leave here and probably could remain quit; but I kind of like it here. I would miss the crazy uncle, the brothers, the lovely sisters and all of the others that are always willing to help a brother out when in need. A simple text, call, post it PM can really mean the difference between a cave and success. I see the path, and like the wonderful life it leads too, I will remain here until I am cured of my addiction. I now desire and honest and clean life, so I can enjoy being a father and husband that offers more good examples than bad; plus I want to have a tongue so later in life if I am blessed I can tell my grand kids stories about the silly shut their parents did.

KTC retirees, admins, mods, members and newbies thank you from the bottom of my heart. I may not be here writing this message if not for all of you,

Congrats on the single digit.
