48 hours smoke free

So, it's been 48 hours without a cigarette.  This is not my first 48 hours this year without a cigarette.  This is actually my 20th 48 hours without a cigarette this year.  About this time is when I crack, and break down, and light up again.  Not today.  Not today.

What's different about today?  Me.  I'm going to cope with going home to chaos, stress, pressure, put downs, and negativity without smoking.  So, how will I cope with going home after work tonight?  Hmm....good question....

Thinking.........still thinking........this is where I am supposed to come up with a plan, right?

Saying a prayer that tonight goes quickly.  My coping mechanism plans will be:  Cold water, put away the laundry, and give myself a manicure.  If any negativity is thrown at me, I will deflect it with my invisible Wonder Woman wrist shields.  Wachaa!.... I will see a picture of myself, my smoke-free self, in my head and will not let anything take that picture down.  Not today.  Not today.
