I was a little nervous initially about social outings. I didn't find them to be nearly as problematic as I'd anticipated though, especially as friends stood out in the cold. :p
Unexpected stresses have been a problem for me though. Last night, for example, I had my car towed in sub-freezing temperatures, got home 2 hours late, was in for God only knows what in repair expenses, had to find transportation for work this morning, had my daughter asking me about going here & there & everywhere this weekend when I had no transportation myself, etc., etc., etc. :gasp: I'm not sure I've wanted a cigarette (and/or stiff drink) quite so badly since I made it through hell week, but.... I did make it through without breaking down even when a "friend" jokingly offered to bring me a pack. (Way to be supportive, huh?) I feel pretty proud about having fought through the urge.
