A big Urge came knocking…Vigilance is the Key !

I am back from my trip seeing my mom and staying with my sister.  Without details, there was a lot of drama.  Out of the Blue, I had a disagreement with my sister that caused a cigarette/smoking came to my mind.  I couldn’t believe the feeling was so strong…I went out the door and took a walk and kept telling myself what I learned at the Ex site “a thought is not an action”…I was always a “doormat” for my family, and when I quit smoking, i spoke up for the first time and my family, especially my sisters can not handle how much I have changed.  I used to agree even if I didn’t really agree in my head.  I have grown with this quit and speak up.  Not a good thing with my family.  Anyways,  this is/was a reminder of always being vigilant because smoking can pop into your mind.  

I didn’t act on it, but had to divert my attention.  I will try to catchup on posts today.  Wishing all a beautiful Tuesday, and to keep the quit.  Nothing else matters.

I am so glad to be home and back with Neil and my Luna.  See a picture of my girl…

I am here to quit smoking. This will be my third quit. Both quits before lasted a long time and then about 4 years ago I thought I could just have one with a cocktail and a friend, here I am 4 years later and finally quit 13 days.
