Today is a new day

After the shocking news of yesterday... I simply slept through my cravings. It was the first time I really felt like I needed a smoke since I quit. This was different than a craving... it was like a need to cope or something. I knew I wouldn't smoke... because why would I? I was able to recognize it for what it was and move forward from there. The same thing will happen with the situation we are in right now. My husband is a bright, motivated man and he is going to provide for us. I believe in him just as he believed in me when I announced I was quitting smoking. It didn't matter that I had tried and failed before, he believed in me as if I had never failed and he knew I wouldn't. I realized how strong he's helped me become as a person and now I have that chance to be that strong person for him. I've added another clock to my profile.. a Coke quit clock... I want to get healthy for my family... and Coke will cut my life short, just like cigarettes would. It's also cheaper on the budget to down the water like no one's business instead of cokes... lol.. Both of my children love water, so I feel that I've done well there and feel that I really need to be a good example... and peddling the benefits of water while downing a sugary death drink isn't exactly convincing.
