The coffee thing

I am one of those people who LOVES coffee...hot, freshly ground and flavored.  Of course I listed it as one of my triggers so I refrained from drinking it when I first quit.  Then enough was enough, around week two I was going to have my coffee regardless. So to lessen my chances of going out to buy cigarettes, I put my PJ's on.  It worked.  I may have had an urge or two, I am not even sure.  Obviously, it was not life shattering.  Ever since I have been enjoying my coffee.  Sometimes while reading the blogs.  I am still smoke free after 32 days and look forward to many more. N.O.P.E.  So long story short.  The nicotine addict in me had me fooled that I had to have a cigarette with my coffee.  I must confess, now my coffee taste a WHOLE LOT BETTER without a cigarette.  Like the Elders say "it's what's between the ears".  True story.  The End.

Have a smoke free day, I am.
