Wow I can't believe that one week from today is October 1st, Mason wants Gramp and I to go out with him on Halloween and last week he was singing Jingle Bells and is EXcited for Christmas, he's coming over to spend the night later this morning which is my idea because Gramp hasn't seen much of him and I only see him in the mornings getting him ready for school so he called me at 8 o'clock and said that I could go get him, ha, ha, I was still in bed just waking up, his father was still sleeping and his Mom was just getting home from her work while we were still talking, he told me to go get a coffee and I told him I would wait for his mom ( my daughter ) to call me then he could come right over. Finding out that I have mild copd was the reason for finding this site and quitting smoking because I want to enjoy life and be here for my family, especially the grandchildren Emma is 14, Adam is 12 and I love them dearly but they want to be on the go constantly or be somewhere with their friends not hanging out with the old fogies but Mason is 7 and still wants to be here and now thankfully he doesn't need to be waiting for me to come in from outside stinking like an ashtray and me taking off every 25 or 30 minutes sucking on a disgusting cancer stick with him opening the door ever couple of minutes wondering if I'm almost done. Wow just writing that down makes me remember doing that to him and the other grandchildren, well no more and now I am enjoying every blessed minute that I can to enjoy life without that crutch. I did it after 40 yrs of smoking and so has so many others here and many of them smoked even longer, some 45, 50 or more and we're reaping the benefits of an Ex smoker and so can any of you that may be reading this that hasn't quit yet now is the time to take back your life while you are still vertical and if you are struggling hang on tight because there's definitely life after cigarettes, it's within your grasp reach out and hold on tight, stick around, blog help before you head out to the grocery store, remember DAY WON not DAY ONE.
