Busy and Could be Stressful Today

Hello, we are having a big family gathering today.  Should be 30 - 40 people.  I am getting ready to cook about 20 lbs. of mashed potatoes for this early Christmas gathering.  My husband doesn't like my family much, so I hope things go well and everyone gets along.  I will be busy today, and I'm hoping all goes well.

No matter what happens, I won't smoke today!

I'll remember my deep breathing, and the reasons why I want to stay quit.

I am tired of failing at this.  Onward and Upward, I want to see the days add up!!

Hugs all!

I'm a widow now, my husband passed away January 1, 2018 He died of COPD, and pre leukemia and the flu. He quit smoking 15 years ago which gave him extra time. I am a mother, and grandmother. I have smoked for 47 years. I am going to have my forever quit and I'm doing it for me and my two daughters so I can live longer and be with them. I like to read, swim, garden, crochet, paint and doodle. I also enjoy walking and visiting with friends and family. I am 100% making this my last quit. I have been in denial about what smoking has done to me and my kids. I must make a new life for myself and it doesn't include cigarettes. I may already have COPD, but have not been officially diagnosed.
