Wow. What a journey. I have put off quitting for so long b/c ... well b/c I didn't want to and also b/c I kept thinking about how hard it would be and how I didn't want to make a committment like that. Well It turns out that except for a few little bumps along the way, it hasn't been that hard. Sure, I have had my temptations....but I usually just try to occupy myself with something productive.
I will say this : I have maybe been the tiniest little bit snippy. I may have had a smidge of road rage. I may have wanted to sniff the guy at Starbucks that lit up as i was leaving...
BUT I have done this.
I have done this in spite of the NEVER-ENDING areas that are set aside especially for people who like to inhale dirty air into their lungs. Special areas that are like "members only" areas. I mean, try walking into the smoking area of an airport and just sitting there....you are likely gonna be thrown through the plate glass...you know...for being all high and mighty and healthy etc.
Well, I am no longer a member of the club, but.... I am a member of the "I said I was gonna do it and GOSH DARN IT, I am" club. There is nothing more gratifying that setting a goal and accomplishing it. While I know i still have a long road ahead of me, I am proud of the little path i've made in my life that is leading to a better me.
