Angelcapp - For some reason, hearing about your little ritual with your son (counting days) really really touched me. How beautiful & moving. Talk about the ultimate "reward" for quitting!
And yes, I've also found all of this new time! It's amazing how much time we wasted smoking, going to buy smokes, looking for matches/lighters, washing our hands after smoking, etc. We now have so much new found time. Yet another reward!
Janie - I can totally relate to your people-avoidence thing. I used to be so self-conscious on the elevator in my apartment building every morning...I know I reeked and it is such a small space. I was ashamed to smell like cigarettes, especially before 8 a.m.!!! Anyway, I now proudly ride that elevator!
