The little things that make me happy

Sunday we got 2-3 inches of snow, Tuesday we got another 1-2 inches of snow. All last week, no matter what I did I had to charge/jump my truck every day. Monday morning it wont start,  I charged it since I had some running around to do, Tuesday I just let it sit, I was not going anywhere. This morning I went out to clean the bulk of the snow off, I shoveled the driveway enough to make a path to the truck door,  I put my key in, it hesitated, but it started. My truck has been nothing but a problem child for me since we got it 3 yrs ago. I leave the truck running so the engine could warm up, the defroster/heater have a mind of their own and normally don't work well, but as long as the engine is warmed up I can make due. So I finish brushing the snow off the truck and my roommate comes out and starts shoveling the walkways. My husband comes out and follows the roommate sprinkling some salt. I am able to return to the house before my fingers and nose are numb

All morning, and honestly the last few days, quite often I have been thinking about smoking.  I won't do it, I have my tool kit ready for the drive down to the bigger town for my husbands doctors appointments. Simple visits today I hope. Stressed and trying not to be stressed about scheduling appointments in the big city for both my husband an myself -2 doctors and a MRI appointment at 3 locations within a 2 day period since it is almost a 4 hr drive and we are hoping to do it in one vs 2 trips. One of the medications that my husbands doctor last week sent to the pharmacy hasn't been filled so I need to check on that and I am wanting to go have a smoke, but I don't do that anymore and it just bugs me that I am thinking about it so much.

Off to hopefully not deal with idiots in the snow

Have a smoke free day

I quit smoking Oct 31st 2017. It was hard, I had rough moments, but even with my husband and roommate smoking I kept from smoking since I decided to do it for me. Aug 7th 2018 my husband quit smoking. September 18 my world was turned upside down as my husband died in front of me. February 19, 2019 I quit..it took a few tries after my husband passed, but I am no longer a smoker.
