Made it Smoke Free!!!

Made it through Smoke Free

Have been gone for a few days to my cousins Funeral and a Celebration of his life.   As they say here a first.  People were smoking and it didn't bother me. That was a giant step for me. First time being around smokers at a function.  A lot of emotions, sad, crying, tension, stories being told about him and the good times and memories.  Pictures of him and his life. Used to be all good reasons to smoke!! I was able to make it through with out even saying to myself I need a cig. I was able to set and talk to relatives I hadn’t seen for years!! Not once did I feel I needed a cig.  Before I would go have a cigarette to ease the pain. I felt more calm by not smoking!!  Even the car ride home when we got gas at the gas station I always would find a place to smoke, didn’t have to do that this time!!!

Thanks to all the reading, educating, all the information I got from this site and all the help, I did it!!  So to all the new ones it does get better!!! So stay strong and keep going forward one day at a time!! So grateful for  every one. Thank you all.

Sincerely

Mag at 265 days of freedom
