Doggies and kitties

So i recently got a new job pet sitting. Its been really fun and is perfect for me because of my social anxiety. This place is also perfect for my social anxiety. 

Today I met a beautiful long haired kitty and he was so cuddly! I wanted to stay with him all night and just pet and cuddle him, but i couldn't because I had to go to another house to play with some lab puppies ( such a rough job!). 

Any way, its a trigger driving to smoke from house to house, but i think how great it is that im not stinking to these cute furry animals, and walking into these nice houses smelling either. 

I mean, cuddling that cat after a cig would be horrible... and those precious pups too. 

Today was a awesome day. I went smoke free and got lots of love.

Peace to you all

I've been smoking since I was 13, and I am going to be 42 in a few days. I have had 2 quits that lasted 11 months. I have been trying to quit again now for over a month. I would get 4 days smoke free, then smoke for a couple then get 4 more days ect... I'm bipolar, with an anxiety disorder and ptsd. I'm also an alcohlic. I go to a group for dual diagnosis for these, as well as AA meetings. I also see a therapist and a psychiatrist regularly.
