Share your quitting journey

Hi from beautiful SC!

Hello my EX community!  Hope you are all doing well and enjoying the early days of almost-summer.  For those of you who remember, we've moved back to my home state and we are settling in to the new house.  Work is fine (read REALLY busy!) and the new puppy is doing well, too.  

I hate that I missed my 500 day anniversary, but at the same time am happy to report that it passed without being noted in my world.  For those of you who are just starting your journey, you really DO stop counting the days, hours and minutes since you quit.  It will seem to take forever, but you will get there.  

I have decided that if I can move a family of four across the country - along with transferring my mom from a nursing home in Indiana to a nursing home in SC - while my daughter is graduating from college and while my youngest is getting braces without smoking, I'll likely never smoke again.  I don't ever let my guard down, though, and know that people far stronger than me have slipped.  Having said that, there's so much satisfaction in knowing that I am 500+ days free. 

What's new with all of you?


Love, Susan
