I too am a little concerned about the changing of seasons. I used to really enjoy sitting out on my deck having a smoke after doing yard work in the warmer weather. Hopefully I can compensate for that somehow.

I know I will have to find a way to keep my hands busy.... maybe I will need to keep some bubble for blowing to give my breath something to do..

Yeah, I find weather to be a trigger too. We had a rain storm the other day. I work in a creative field, and one part of my work is photography. I often photograph stormy scenes for a few on-going client projects, so I grabbed my camera and headed out the door. But kept thinking I forgot something. Well, I'm used to grabbing my camera and my smokes. So, the storm and the camera made me want a smoke. I said no out loud and went to shoot. Once I got busy it was ok. I think we need to be aware those triggers will come, but once you're out a few times in those triggering situations and don't smoke, it should start to get better. I think the mind will get used to the fact that you no longer have to smoke when x or y is happening or when the sun is shining a certain way or, in my case, when stormy weather comes and I head out to shoot. The brain just needs to form a few new pathways, I think. 

You're right. I think it will really take a full year before we are re-programed to do stuff without immediately thinking about smoking. That's the reason for the 1 year pledge here. Even though you may feel confident in having a handle on your quit after a few weeks/months; it's those seasonal triggers that can catch you by surprise. If you are no longer committing daily to not smoking, you may just find yourself giving into one of those urges at some point. Stay strong people - protect that quit!
