Can't think of anything original or cute to say...

Day One has come and (almost) gone.  It was not easy but it was also not so hard that I deserve any special praise.  I wanted cigarettes several times after I arrived at my layover hotel and it DID feel pretty odd to just stay in the room instead of periodically going outside to smoke.  Pistachios helped.  Catnaps helped.  I'm reading Allen Carr and trying to feel JOY.  Mostly, I just feel flat instead of victorious.  But I didn't smoke.  I guess that's all that matters.

About the Author
I'm a 64 year-old flight attendant for a major US airline. Prior to that, I owned an ice cream store and six hot dog carts and put my five kids thru college on hot dog earnings! Prior to THAT, I was Director of International Administration for Domino's Pizza, Inc. I was married to my H.S. sweetheart (dad of my 5 kids) for 17 years. I've been with Jeff for 23 years, but we just finally got married in 2016! Jeff & I live in Cape Meares, OR right on the beach. I'm from Ann Arbor, MI, where many of my kids/relatives still live. My flying base is Washington, DC, where I have a condo that I stay in when I'm between flying trips. My dream is to retire and stay home with Jeff and my two cats, Kenneth & Barbara...not happening soon, though. So I go home whenever I can get a week or more off. I LOVE to meet up with other EXers in the cities where I lay over. I usually blog about what cities I'm laying over in, so let me know if I'm staying near you! I'll buy dinner!! Xxxooo, Sky
