Good evening friends-
I wanted to share what I did today in order to not smoke. I have been avoiding going certain places around town becuase they are a trigger for me to smoke. I couldn't wait any longer to put gas in my car today. I didn't want to be tempted to go into the gas station and buy a pack. So I had my husband take my car up and fill it. 🙂 Is that crazy? I thought so for a minute, but it kept me from smoking. I didn't want to fail on only Day 6.
I also needed to go to the grocery store. A trigger for me has always been to light up when I walk out of the store. I don't smoke in my car so this is my chance to smoke before I go home. I put a straw in my pocket and reached for it as soon as I walked out. I quickly unloaded my cart and got into the car. I knew I wouldn't smoke there.
I'm looking forward to the day that I can go to a gas station and not be tempted to buy a pack. I'm grateful for the support of my husband and for all of you! All of you keep pushing me forward and remind me of how much better my life is without smoking.
I avoided one situation completely and relied on a back up for now in the other. The important thing is that I didn't smoke.
Hope everyone has an amazing smoke-free evening-
Thanks again for all the support-you guys are truly amazing!
