Sheller, These are great observations, always enjoy hearing thoughts of those way deeper into their quits than I am. I pretty much have adopted the school of thought that even if I am 3 years into my quit, that I will NOT let my guard down or put myself in a situation that I cannot handle. - I have walked away from plenty of bad stuff in my life, and I have definitely chosen to walk away from smoking.
The nice weather does bring out a lot of associations with all of us ex-smokers sitting out on our decks, patios, picnic tables, etc. smoking like there is no tomorrow. Outside is nicer smoke free, all those good summer smells like the garden, the steak on the grill, the way your kid smells when they get out of the pool, sun tan lotion all coconutty ~ you get the picture. Thanks for saying what you did......
