Light bulb moment

So, I was thinking last night about my activity level. I hate to be still. The conclusion I kind of came to is that maybe when I was smoking, it was also a way to be still. Sort of like self-medication. It never dawned on me until now that my hyperactivity (at 65 years old!) was tampered by sitting or standing while smoking. 

(I was gonna put a picture of a light bulb here, but seems like I can't get pictures to upload right now.)

On another note, here I am, still quit and still active. I walk almost every day, I sew, I do this, I do that, and still don't like to sit around doing nothing. LOL No more self-medication, though.

 I I had that same light bulb moment during the first year of my quit. It was like an excuse I could give myself to sit down take a break and just chill out. So glad I discovered that it's okay to just chill out and that I don't need an excuse like smoking ato do so.
