Thanks all. Knowing my lifesavers are out there really helps. Just listing comments adds confidence and the ability to redirect a crave. I remember these nasty ones and the "battle within" that has to be dealt with. TIME. I will KMQ today.

Good Morning NOPE!! There'll be no puffin today.

SD. Thank you. I woke up to a beautiful morning with a clean attitude. Trying to decide what I can do that won't affect my physical recovery and keep me occupied for this mental recovery. I think I'll take my dog swimming. KTQ

Came home from the hospital last night and was attacked by some cravings. It's so screwed up! To this point my quit has been fairly easy going. I understand I am just through Heck week, but right after all of these life changing events and to even think of smoking HUH? The cravings kept coming back. WTF. I am safe and through it for now but just Dam. I clearly saw myself smoking and know what the pain would be like in my chest, and that JUST THE ONE could JUST KILL ME. That is romancing this addiction, even when death is at your door!!! I believe the ride home in my wife's car, even though it doesn't smell and we didn't smoke in our house or vehicles, just being confined there must have been a scent that set it off? My wife still smokes but not at home or anywhere around. She covers the smell well. She doesn't leave to smoke but the knowledge is surely dangerous. The same as the last quit she will at some point become complacent that I am quit and relax her rules. She has started reading Allen Carr's Easy Way. I can only hope she keeps moving in the direction she is going and gets serious. The good. These deeper breaths are an addiction in themselves, and my sense of smell is definitely coming back for the good and the (crap that stinks) bad. Or should I say that crap sure stinks. KTQ.

Doc just left me with some pretty bad news. Prepare for bypass surgery in my future. That artery was 90%+ blocked in multiple areas that he covered with the 2 stents. Stay off nicotine, diet and more cardio type exercise will slow the progress. This is what my plans already were as long as I could exercise, and without the stents any exertion was impossible without nitro. So in other words, get responsible for your actions and Grow Up before you can't. KTQ Stew.
