Day 9!

Hello!  Just a quick note to say I am here, I am smoke-free, I am doing this. I am decorating a XMAS tree right now and can smell and savor the pine.  I am present and not needing to plot how to "escape" for my "reward"...a fix. Addiction is a tricky monster but today, sanity and something more powerful than myself is guiding my actions.

Small "Grateful for" list:  clean hair, brighter skin, clothes and breath and everything else don't smell like smoke. smell and taste are coming back!, my family and friends, proof that I CAN do this one day at a time with support.

I've gone over a day without a SINGLE craving, wow.  I am staying close to this community, avoiding alcohol and smoke-friendly places, am making sure to eat satisfying yet healthy meals, getting to bed at reasonable hours, EXCERCISING (even if it's just a little each day) and am taking care of myself.  Day nine is another miracle.
