Day 29
Got through yesterday, stressy and fun. My partners birthday always a big thing with cocktail party, dinner and then dessert and all the fun things of a party. Doing this smoke free was a bit like being naked on the subway. AND I got through. There were a couple of places where I thought oh I can just go join them out there and that was my addict brain talking. There was no way in the world I would have been able to stand outside with them and not smoke. I stayed inside, swooshed home from the restaurant and dove into a swell piece of cake. The celebration was more awsome for me because I was not smoking. Coming up to 30 days and that is the celebration for me, 45, 60, 90 100, 120 the odometer keeps rolling. I am so grateful for the quit meter I am totally jazzed by the fact, the image of my adding time , days onto my life. Hooray for life.
More later, I have a full day today at work and then off to the theatre, dinner and more social stuff. I feel that I am stepping back into a more social role, a role that I was tentative to start again as so much of socializing has been around smoking. Although when I think of it I would not and can not in many cases smoke inside and so smoking has become illicit, a secretive, outside kind of thing. HMMMMMMM.
More Later
