Hi everyone,
Hubby went back to work yesterday for two weeks so no doubt I will have lots more time to post and be active here on the board.
Bad news it that I smoked for the last 4 days. Up until Friday night I was doing really well. I faced lots of social occasions, pubs, lunches etc and it wasn't too bad only a couple of mild craves, then on Friday night we had some visitors over and I just decided in a couple of minutes that I would join them in smoking !!! I didn't even try to work through the crave. I'm trying not to beat myself up too much, once again just learning from my mistakes and moving on. I didn't smoke nearly as many cigarettes as I have in the past. To be honest they make me feel a bit sick.
So the good news is I've jumped straight back on the train and today I haven't smoked. I'm glad to be back here, there's a certain feeling of comfort and security knowing you are all here. I really haved missed not being able to spend much time here.
This morning when I woke up I thought to myself can I really be bothered to go through all the effort again. I lay there thinking about it for a while and then just found myself going through the motions of getting up as a none smoker. Breakfast, coffee, watch Eastenders ;) . Shower and then out to do some shopping. Before I knew it I was back home having lunch and I hadn't even thought of having a smoke. It's now 3.15pm and I'm going to take my little dog out for a walk (it's a beautiful autumn day here in Perth still warm and sunny !) By the time I get back I shall be preparing the evening meal and the day will be nearly done.
I will check in after dinner and see what you all have to say -_-
