Dull and Boring

 I've reached a point of boredom for the day, so thought I'd take this time to blog a bit. Boredom is such a big trigger. It's not that I don't have things to do, it's that I just don't feel like doing them. The thought to smoke has crossed my mind more than once and that is why I am here now, connecting to my wonderful quit family! Sure, smoking would be something to do, but it's not what this girl wants to do either. It's been raining the better of the day thus far with the sun threatening to come out. I sat outside for a while, (yes where I used to smoke)listening to the rain and looking at my garden hoping it would plant itself. The fish are out in there pond instead of hiding like they have been most the winter. I find solace in my backyard and decided this quit that even though my back porch could be a trigger, I find its not this time because I decided it was too important of a place to be for me and nicodemon is just forbid out there. All resemblance of him hit the garbage 3 days ago. I'm ok with that. Anyways, that's how my day has been going. I'm smoke free and I like that. Hope everyone else is having a good day as well.

Gone but Not Forgotten. RIP - they leave a legacy of their quit journeys behind as road maps for future members, to prevent the pitfalls, provide the tools and show the hope and possibilities for success at overcoming this addiction at any age at any stage. I am a 62 year old suffering with moderate COPD. I have relapsed several times from my quit, but I will keep trying till I get it right! "Your mind controls your quit but you control your mind. Don't let your emotions spoil your quit!" Don't allow a stumble to be the end of the journey. The difference between a good day and a bad day is attitude!
