Things I like about being smoke free

Punkin, Congrats on 509 days! I know what you mean. One of the bestest times for me is when a friend calls up and is in the neighborhood and wants to stop by. Now it is SOOO easy to tell them I would love to have them come over. And not have to rush to change my blouse and brush my teeth. FREEDOM is great!

Punkin, how happy to see you! A fellow member of the Class of December 2004! I was on vacation last week in New York City. It was great not to feel like I had to rush off the plane and find a place to light up. A lot of people in the city seemed to smoke, but I didn't have to! I spent hours in the Met Museum, Bronx Zoo, and Museum of Natural History without every once needing to duck outside. I never thought I could actually make it here...I never dreamed how wonderful it would be.

I went to Disneyland last week. I was wonderful not spending all my time trying to figure out where I could grab a smoke. I was able to enjoy each moment. Before I would have been racking my brain about where was the smoking area, how long til I would be in that area. I love not smelling like smoke. I love the fact that I didn't get a panicky feeling when I found out the hotel was smokefree. I want to thank all of you who have helped me get to this point.

So what is the big deal? You have just done something for yourself that 40 million others in the USA alone wish they could do. Did you notice the mouse had a smile on it's face and was not coughing as it stood with you for pics. I have read that a good 40% of our previous smoking lives was spent on either smoking or worrying about smoking. You know what.... [size=4]That Is A Big Deal![size=2] Congrats!
