The Daily Pledge November 2019

[Roller831]

Happy November everyone, welcome to the Daily Pledge in the Celebrations & Events community where we can meet daily to take another person's hand and make our commitment stronger.

I think the most important item to note in November is that the third Thursday of November is the Great American Smokeout!

Other fun things are:

• It is the last month of the Fall season.
• November in the Northern Hemisphere is similar to May in the Southern Hemisphere
• Elections are held in the United States on the Tuesday after the first Monday in November.
• Some Christian churches celebrate All Saint's Day on the first day of November and All Souls Day on the 2nd.
• American football is the main sport watched in the United States during this month.
• Most, if not all, of the leaves have fallen off the trees by the end of November.

 today is my second today is my second day of freedom from vaping I am 66 years old and stopped smoking my two pack a day cigarette habit over 30 years ago and foolishly took up vaping thinking it was a safe way to enjoy nicotine again at this stage of my life.... I'm a gay Healthcare exec who started vaping just six months ago when I got married to my husband.... and I found myself on this past Sunday riding a bicycle back from church and short of breath for the first time in over 30 years... so I threw my vaping pod away and I've been free ever since... I am using nicotine patches to deal with the Cravings which is something I didn't need to do 30 years ago but the vaping  seems insidious in its clutch,  and Incredibly rapid in the Damage that it caused, so I appreciate having this resource to keep me on track... although I am certain I will never pick it up again I value my health for the remainder of my life too much to sacrifice it to the very superficial and brief pleasures and vaping gave me I wish my best to everyone who is struggling with this most terrible and challenging addiction...  I can say to all from experience that it does absolutely get better and the urge to smoke or vape will go away whether you have a cigarette or vape or not.... so just don't give into it
