Dodging bullets metaphorically

I'm just glad to still be smoke free.   So to quote something quoted to me my someone who was quoting someone else.....   Sometimes I want to murder my husband with an axe. But I don't because I'm not an axe murderer.   HA!!   Sometimes I want to smoke but I don't Because I'm a non-smoker!!!   YAY!!!   Thanks quoter. You know who you are. ;)

Note to self!

MQ posted this in another post and I need to put it somewhere that I can pop in and see it easily.   ****"It doesn't matter if you feel like you want a cigarette, have a craving or a shitty day, the choice is always there."*****   It may seem obvious to some in fact is sounds obvious to me but to my addicted body... it isn't. Hehe. Silly body!!   Not one puff ever.   It doesn't matter how bad you (me) really want a cigarette. You don't smoke. Period. Period. Period!   It. doesn't. ma

I made it.

Holy Mackerel, I made it! I don't remember being so tired. Ever. I'm not kidding either. My feet hurt, my fingertips are raw.....or is that flippertips. Anyway, I have alot to do at the new place but it is coming along. There was only 1 day that I seriously thought about smoking. It was the ole' wake up in the morning and start to romance the cigarette. I immediately realised that was what I was doing. I will keep telling myself that smoking has nothing to offer me. Smoking has nothing to

Gonna get through this week, smoke free!

OK, so I am moving this week. On Friday 8/1 and Saturday 8/2 to be more specific. I still have packing to do and my little one is acting out. He isn't taking this move as well as the last. I'm sure because he is older, etc. etc. etc. Trying to keep my cool. I want to be able to look back at this and laugh, just like I do at previous adventures. However, I am pretty stressed. Deep breaths alot and more than the usual amount of cupcakes. It will be nice to be settled again so putting 1 foot in

I love almond joy candy bars.

So I'm sitting at my desk at lunch and eating an almond joy. I just love them. I love chocolate. Needless to say, my weight is still the same as well.. too much. Not going up, though. Yay.   Anyway, I am so happy to be smoke free today. I am going through the process of moving homes. My landlord decided to sell the house we (my family) rent. She didn't tell us and whamo, a bit over 3 weeks to move. What the?!?! Anyway, I had a freak out, I almost smoked but then I didn't. I know by no

Call the waaambulance.

I should have done some blog entries when I was feeling good. I will do that, for sure. In the meantime, Blaaaaach! I feel unappreciated at work. I feel yucko. What do people do who don't drink or smoke for an escape. Exercise? Really? Eating sounds good but that only goes so far and I'm not loving the weight gain as it is. Knitting? I don't know how. Maybe I should learn. Read? I love to read but I'm lookin' for something else. SOMETHING IS MISSING!! Sleeping. That is great!!! Howe

Depression

Bummer deal. I could stay in bed all day. Literally. I. Don't. Want. To. Do. Anything. Catch 22. I know that getting up and moving and doing stuff would help. However, I don't want to get up and do stuff. Imagine the biggest sigh ever that echos through the trees... That will be me. *Sigh* Tomorrow I will force myself.

Still hanging in.

So last night was really fun! It was great to see my girlfriends. The group of us have been friends since high school. Some of them have older children and a couple of us were late bloomers and have young kids. We all used to smoke. Bunch of little rebels, or so we thought. Anyway, I did end up going to the smoking section outside with them and it was fine. I was OK. I thought about posting If I needed to as I had my phone on me. You guys were there with me and you didn't even know it! :D Al

So far so good.

Had too much to do today to think about smoking much. Tomorrow night is a girls night out and we are going to see Peter Murphy. Wooo hoooo! This will be super fun! I have 2 girlfriends that still smoke but the other bunch quit years ago. Shouldn't be too bad there I don't think. Just gotta stay off of the smoking patio. K, I don't have to stay off of the patio, I just don't think I'll go out there because it is a big smoke fest. No reason, ya know? Anyway, I will keep my quit and I will c

In your face, Smokes!

Goodnight Monday. To smokes I say..In your face!! Today was good. I had some craves but with the help of my friend taffy..and the board..and dinner....anyway, I made it through. The elevator ride to my car was probably the the biggest trigger today. LOL Pavlov! Hugs to you all! P.S. I'm planning on getting up early to hit the treadmill. LOL! Let's see how that goes!

Ahhh..another day done.

Ahhh.. I made it another day. I woke up this morning and wanted a smoke. I didn't do it. I worked in the yard. I love that! I thought alot about smoking..especially when my hubs was smoking. I could smell it. I didn't smoke then either. I sat in the shade watching my sweet boy play in the pool. I didn't bite him. Hahaha.. I'm a shark...get it? Anyway a breeze was blowing and it was simply lovely. Thought about smoking. Took deep breaths and didn't smoke. I ate a big giant dinner..no smoking. I
