Since about 27 days into my quit, I have been an almost constant on this board. Last night I came here at a little past 11:00 pm to see my new stats. I especially like it when a new day starts. However, last night I had this deep sense that I no longer need to hang on to this board so tightly, that those numbers are just going to go up each day whether I me here or not. They will not become negative days; nor will the meter be reset at zero. This doesn't mean that I don't feel I need to watch out for the nicodemon. I do. What it does mean is that I am sincerely ready to back the pledge I made months ago never to smoke again. (I feel it deep in my heart and mind.) I also feel less like I need to clock in here every single day, sometimes six or seven times. The clock will move forward even if I don't watch it. I can finally relax a little.
