Two wks from today is the 31st of March, wow but I'm concentrating only on today which will keep me busy enough, I got bread in the bowl which hubby stirred up for me before he went to work and I'm hoping to do some more spring cleaning. I only had Mason a couple of days this wk after school and I guess he spent Tuesday night and Gramp took him to school Wed, anyway I'm rambling sorry about that. It's a chilly morning at 12 °F but it's supposed to warm up plus baking 3 ovenfulls of bread later on today will heat the house up and save on some wood, I know I've mentioned before probably several times but by quitting smoking even though I'm not a morning person I can still bounce right up at 6 o'clock and after 3 or 4 sips of coffee I can grab my ingredients and bowls, put the yeast on and actually function but when I was a Smoker whether I was working a job or just doing something here at home, I needed at least an EXtra hr to wake up to  be able to function so I didn't want anyone to bug me until at least my third coffee and at least 4 cigarettes! Then you could speak to me, whew I'm soooooooo very happy those days are gone it's amazing how much time, health and money that's totally wasted on the killer cancer sticks. It's wonderful to be FREE from the clutches of the dreaded nicotine poison, quitting smoking and Remaining Quit is absolutely Doable and so very worth it all to be able to go anywhere, anytime, whenever, wherever and however without sneaking off somewhere to suck on a yakie  (cigarette) and choke, cough and nearly hork up a lung or maybe both that was me especially in the mornings but after 40 yrs of slavery to the smokes I wonder what I EXpected? But not anymore for me because I am living & loving my Forever quit and so can you! It's definitely not easy taking back your life but boy oh boy it's absolutely worth whatever you need to go through to come out the other side smiling and being able to live a beautiful Smoke Free Life, reach out and grab it because it's yours for the taking but you must want it more than anything else in this world so be willing, determined and totally committed to succeed and you can and will be successful, believe you can and you will be successful!  Each day you get through is another day WON! N.O.P.E  - Not One Puff Ever - will give you a fabulous life of Freedom!

I'm a proud Gram of 2 grandsons and a granddaughter and I consider myself a jack of all trades and a master of none, plus I enjoy reading and being outside and since quitting smoking breathing is so much easier because I'm not coughing half of my time sucking on a cancer stick....
