Humbly Returning

I quit last year, Nov 27th.  I found a lot of strength and friendship here.  It is a wonderful site.  I was whole hogged about it.  Then life threw some boulders my way and I crumbled.  I went back to smoking in February.  Our family endured some extremely trying times with this economy.  We are back on our feet, I hope.  I am still without a computer most of the time, but I am smoke free since Nov. 1st, 2010.  I have gained about 20 pounds this last year and I am not liking it.  I need to stay quit so my body re regulates to a normal weight.  I know it will as I have spoken to other ex-smokers who have assured me it will.  I have faith.  I am very humble this time.  I pray one day at a time to remain an ex.  It is working so far!  Do not give up hope!  If you relapse, be grateful for all the poison you did not put in your body while you were quit and do it again.  You are not a failure.  I felt like one until I realized these facts.  Every day is a new opportuniity.  Make it wonderful!
