Smoke-free Vacation

I had the pleasure of visiting Pensacola last week with some of my family.  The weather was beautiful, and it was a very relaxing vacation.  I love the beach!

Because I gave up smoking a little over 5 years ago:

  • I didn't have to worry about when the next smoke break would be on the drive there and back.  I could use these breaks to stretch my legs, use the restroom, and get something to drink without feeling like I was holding everyone else back.
  • I didn't have to worry about getting my cigarettes wet while at the pool or beach.
  • I didn't have to rush through meals to make time for my after dinner smoke.
  • I didn't have to worry about offending others with my second hand smoke.
  • I didn't have to search out a suitable place to have a smoke.
  • I didn't have to worry about having enough cigarettes to last me through the trip.
  • I didn't waste one second of my vacation on smoking.

I am a 63 year old single woman. I quit smoking at 55 and my only regret is that I did not quit sooner. Freedom from cigarettes is truly a wonderful feeling!
