Day *** I don't even want to type the dreaded number !

I suppose some of you ,especially those who have a good idea of what number I am near will guess the number of days of freedom I have today ! I am not supersticious but it is pretty well known what the devil's number is !

I already began a hard day before I even realized what the number was even though I was aware of it's arrival days ago !Just last week I said I was on day 670 and then realized  that I was subconciously  trying to skip the 60's !!! 

So here it is and the good news is after thinking hard about smoking this morning I realized it was a trick of that ole Nic and  when I became aware of that awful Number ! You might say the number woke me up before I made a big mistake !

I want to thank all of you who commented on my blog the other day,I am sorry I haven't made it to all of your message boards to thank you personally.

We got snow last night ,just a dusting ,but the real winter has now  begun here in NH  ! 

For all of you newbies please be careful the holidays are here and think twice or more before you drink that cheer !!!

You will be much safer with the hot chocolate , apple cider or  a virgin eggnog !

It is also a time when some of us may be missing those we love either geographically or because they have passed on Chriistmas is always bittersweet for me for both of those reasons . I think that is another reason why I considered smoking this morning, I was thinking about my old comforter  I am strong enough in my quit now to just say no and move on I find my comfort in nicer places now, like here on Ex with you wonderful people and on fb too . I need to use the telephone to my family more often ,Since I quit smoking I have developed a distaste for talking on the tele because it was a huge trigger for me I need to get over that .

It does get easier as time moves on stick with your quit !
