I've had a very nice, uneventful 2 and 1/2 days. In my 37 days of being nicotine free, that's not terribly unusual. But I have learned it is also not something I can take for granted. So I'm feeling very grateful right now.
Speaking of learning:
I've taken 2 "Quit Smoking" classes from 2 different hospitals in the last 3 years. Both were 6 weeks (Six 90 minute classes). Both were taught by Registered Nurses who had been teaching their classes for several years. Both nurses had never smoked in their lives.
Both classes had all kinds of "expert" reading and video materials for us.
Both classes had 6 people in them and both classes had a 100% fail rate within 2 weeks after the last class.
I can honestly say I've learned more in 3 days on this site than in 12 weeks of supposed "expert" advice. Very grateful for that as well.
And, speaking of learning:
I joined this site looking for advice from people who had successfully quit for a year or more. I got that, but have also learned just as much from those who have only recently begun their journey. Grateful for that too.
I guess I should have called this "Grateful Musings", not "Random Musings"
