Congrats of reaching your 2nd big quit milestone Sandi! You've built a great foundation for a live long quit. Enjoy all those benefits you're realizing now that you're not chained to the cig any longer!

I like the point @robin0212 made about making a list, even if just mentally, of all the good things you're experiencing since quitting. That's a big part of getting past those thoughts that smoking again will somehow help us deal with crap going on in our lives that upsets us. You know, those thoughts about smoking helping us deal with problems & stress in our life is actually complete BS but our junkie brain has been trained to believe a smoke helps for years and years. All a smoke does is relieve nicotine withdrawal stress and gives us some time to think about how to solve out real problems. In reality, after being quit for some time, I've found dealing with life's problems & stress is a lot easier and more efficient without smoking! I no longer have that additional issue to deal with ... you know; the monkey on your back whispering "have just one ... it'll make life wonderful again" LIES, all lies! Take stock of what you've done to date! It's incredible!!! Don't ever let that go to waste. That would be a travesty and it would truly crush you! Fight to live another day smoke free. It'll be worth it!

Went to bed so early; now I'm up before 6:00 AM I hate when that happens There may be a nap in my future today? At least the power's back on

Sitting in the dark, except for the light of my phone. Big storm with deluge of rain & gale force winds knocked out the power so, probably an early night as they indicate on the power grid map that it’ll be 2:00 AM before power is restored. What’s really pissing me off is the street behind me still has power! I’m right on the western edge of this outage
