Walking Backwards Through Molasses

...Not an impossible thing to do, but things could be easier. I've now have 69 days and some hours to my quit. It's become a matter of hunkering down and doing the hard work if I want to keep my quit.

Yesterday Carole posted a humorous blog about the Free At Last 7.0 browser. Well, I've been trying to install mine, but there have been glitches. I didn't realize how difficult it is to *not* pick up another substance or process while trying to recover from using nicotine. I've been trying not to overeat and not to shop compulsively/ Add to that a spouse with back problems and an adult son with autism and I think you can see the pools of molasses developing.
But I haven't smoked! I've done yoga, I've walked, I've cleaned my bathroom, I've cooked delicious *healthy* meals
and I've cared for my ill and disabled family. I've prayed a lot. I've been on this site with you guys, which has helped me tremendously. So even though I'm walking through molasses, the direction is toward recovery from nicotine. Thank you, folks. -- Free At Last
