Happy Thursday

My youngest daughter who is 19 stayed the night with me last night.( she’s out of college for the summer). Since I’m newly separated I get real anxious at night and want to smoke. When either of my kids stays with me I feel so much better. The loneliness at night just gets to me so badly. I’ve mentioned I’ve had a bunch of surgeries and am slowly healing finally. I’ll be back ar work soon. This also makes me anxious. I know smoking doesn’t make me less anxious—- but for years and years I smoked when anxious. I’ve quit in the recent past but actually got hooked on replacement therapies. I’m on day 48 cold turkey. I quit the day after my husband moved out. My plastic surgeon as I mentioned made me quit cold turkey. I really had no choice. But I’ve gotten so far I don’t want to start over. Just like with drugs and alcohol ( 8 years 8 months clean as I’ve shared before). ❤️
