It's Been a Week

It's been 8 days since my last cigarette.  I just can't help but think of smoking ALL THE TIME!!  I heard the cravings should last only a few minutes, but that's not happening for me.  From the time I wake up 'til I go to bed, smoking is constantly on my mind.  Is this normal?  When will this constant craving go away?  I've been really good - not even a puff!  Yesterday the craving was really bad.  I know to keep busy, but I can't always do that because of health reasons.  Please tell me something good.  Thanks, everyone!

I live with my husband, daughter, her husband, and two grandsons which make my life very busy. Since I'm disabled, I volunteer by coordinating a student program at a local hospital. I have smoked for over 40 years.
