Hi D2Q, really good to hear from you and yes, I know exactly what you mean, there are definitely times....but I remind myself that it isn't a cigarette but the stress busting, instant gratification that I haven't yet found a substitute for.
I still relish the freedom, can go anywhere, anytime and not worry about the how and the where of the next cigarette...that is worth its weight in gold. And talking of weight, I'm an absolute miserable failure and if anything I'm still piling the weight on!!! I've stopped weighing myself and I've had to stop exercising as I'm damaging myself!! Twisted ankles and dodgy knees....what a life!! Please give me some good news and tell me that you and your work colleagues are still doing great and loosing steadily!!
In fact I'm so glad to be out of February, it's been c*%p!! My son is doing a snowboarding instructors course in Canada and he ended up hugging a tree at high speed...broke his arm, nose and gave himself two handsome black eyes. My eldest daughter is in Australia, back-packing with her boyfriend and my youngest daughter is at college, so the house is really quiet and I'm missing them all shockingly.
Work is absolutely awful and I wish I could pack it in!!! AND my beautiful cat Harvey, who reached the ripe old age of 18 years became really ill and I had to have him put down. Other than that, things are peachy and I am so glad that I don't smoke....(irony gets lost on a keyboard, can be mistaken for sincerity!!!)
Boy, that was good, seems like I needed to get rid of that...thanks D2Q, let me know how a smokefree February was for you!
Best regards, Lilly :)
