It's 65 outside and 75 in my living room at 7 am, yesterday got up into the low 90s, I took Mason to the public pool but silly me didn't wear a swimming suit because I don't like swimming in crowds but sitting in the shade for 2 hrs in the humidity wasn't fun so this old broad is sucking it up today and getting in the pool with Mason and whoever else because it's supposed to be even hotter with a chance of thunderstorms again today. I know that I sound like a broken record with this vigilant stuff that I post most every day but we all know that it's way too easy to get sidetracked with life and boom we could screw up our precious quits with smoking without even thinking about it and have to start back to day 1 because we got complacent and didn't keep our guard up. So please enjoy life and remain vigilant at the same time. Yesterday was extremely hot and busy, I take Mason home in the afternoons for my daughter because she works the graveyard shift, I try to be helpful and quite often I pick him up in the evenings so he's here a little earlier than 10 pm. Anyway my point is between the heat, being busy and tired, a couple of times throughout the day I thought wouldn't a cigarette be nice right about now and the thought rattled around in my head for a moment or two before I realized what a total idiot I would be to even consider it, I have no desire what so ever to relapse but one stupid second of not thinking could be horrid, so let's always remain vigilant my friends because life without cigarettes should be the only lives worth living, 401 beautiful DOF and continuing to count each precious day of life that I blessed with.

I'm a proud Gram of 2 grandsons and a granddaughter and I consider myself a jack of all trades and a master of none, plus I enjoy reading and being outside and since quitting smoking breathing is so much easier because I'm not coughing half of my time sucking on a cancer stick....
