Update on my visiting smoking friend ,so I absolutely can not imagine why I was even worried about this .I stressed myself out for no reason the whole week leading up to my friends visit .I was able to sit on the lanai with her for our morning coffee and it didn’t bother me .I actually was watching her and worried for her health as she is a chain smoker and she never seemed relaxed .It definitely made me realize I’m not missing anything by not smoking ,only to realize how much I’ve gained by quitting,my health ,calmness,energy ,freedom etc the list goes on.I still have to remain vigilant but my confidence is stronger .Thank you to everyone for all the support.
Thanks for the update Thelastquit2019. Sounds like all's going well. Glad you could spend time with your dear friend. Your observations and concerns about her heavy smoking are coming from the new you: a non-smoker! I am sure she is amazed by your successful quit. Stay ready to help her in the future should she turn to you for advice on quitting, You are a caring friend.
