I do remember seeing a few posts by you. I'm glad not only that you're still quit but that you're also 'happy' about it. That's really important, a positive attitude! Stick around if you're so inclined or at least check in when you need to. Lots of knowledge & support here and it's all free 🙂

Yeah. One minute you're just relaxing on the beach and the next you're defending yourself against a beach umbrella attack 😬

Thinking maybe I'll stop going to the beach. Of all the ways I ever thought I might die, this ain't one of 'em 😱 https://globalnews.ca/news/9055639/woman-dies-impaled-beach-umbrella-south-carolina/

Does if look like this?

Irritability, anxiousness & restlessness were my least favorite quit symptoms when I was in the early days of my quit. The main thing that I turned to was breaking away from whatever situation that was causing me grief and doing some deep breathing in order to calm myself although, fisting a few peeps in the face may have also felt pretty good - until I was arrested for assault 😒 You know it's true though that all quit symptoms eventually disappear completely yet the many benefits you'll receive by quitting remain with you for life!

Pretty sure I have too 😬

It's not just the carcinogens in cigarettes that can kill us and others around us. I've heard of people falling asleep and their smoldering cigarette igniting a fire but I've never heard of this one 🙁 https://barrie.ctvnews.ca/combustible-potting-materials-to-blame-for-deadly-gravenhurst-blaze-1.5951878

One of my best quit benefits too Funky!! Travelling is a lot more pleasant as a non-smoker. A year or so before my quit we flew to Istanbul from Toronto - 10 hrs. non-stop. Major nico-withdrawal BIG TIME! Think I almost knocked the wife over trying to get outside to have a smoke once we landed 😬 So nice to have those years in the rearview mirror now 🤗

Oh WOW! Half a Year already! This is a special celebration as it marks that 1/2 year point. Keep doing what you're doing and before you know it, you'll be relaxing on that Lido Deck in another 6 months 😊
