One Week! I can't believe it!!

It's amazing how much I can get done when I don't sit down to smoke a cigarette. My house is spotless, including the inside/outside of my fridge, oven and dishwasher.I've unpacked all of my kids' warmer clothes from storage, washed and put them in their drawers. I've gone on several walks around the block and to pick up my daughter from school, and amazingly I have been making homemade soups and such when I am not at work.

Wow. I feel like Martha Stewart/Betty Crocker, but I am not smoking, so whatever keeps me busy I won't complain about.

At work yesterday, two of the other staff I was working with seemed to be complaining CONSTANTLY! I think I used to handle this better when I could go outside and have my cig. I was so frustrated and had such a headache that I finally said "Is today everybody bitch day, or what?!" and I walked outside to take a breather. Man, did I want to smoke then, but of course I didn't. Thank goodness my work place is so laid back.

But one week! I am so happy, and I can breathe without coughing. Deep breaths feel so refreshing.
