  1. Was not quite sure how to make a blog but I think this might work. So Saturday I found myself fondly missing smoking. It was a strange trigger as most people wouldn't agree but the cigarettes I miss the most are the ones after a heavy workout and yes I smoked after heavy exercise, also after serious hiking trips or kayaking adventures. When I was totally exhausted and exhilarated I enjoyed those the most. Saturday the weather was absolutely beautiful hit the gym for an intense full body work out then went home cleaned the entire house two floors, did a few loads of wash then stopped and felt lost. Normally at this point it would be time to go and sit out side in the sunshine and relax for a bit and yes normally a cigarette would be involved. I went through the whole mental processes of reminding myself you are a non-smoker and yes I am happy I am a non-smoker. Somehow the afternoon felt anticlimactic without the aaaaahhh moment. I tried drinking water, sucking on a mint, taking deep breaths finally I just went and took a shower but it really felt that the day was incomplete. Thankfully Sunday rolled around and off to church which always makes the weekend complete and exercise in the fresh air. I definitely feel that Saturdays are the hardest the good thing is I can exhaust myself to the point the day is over. Now it is Monday and my mind is clear again and so is my resolve. :-)
