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.

Congratulations on your 696 days smoke free.

As they say in the Motel 6 commercial "We'll leave the light on for ya."

Congratulations on 696 days of freedom. I couldn't sit still either so it is really challenging for me now.
