The struggle continues but things getting better by the day. Went out and celebrated the big 62 with a prime rib dinner on Friday. A cigarette always tasted so good after a great meal. Thankfully my friend Carol keeps me in check and she likes not kissing an ashtray anymore (her words) 😁
Work keeps me busy but traffic is still a major trigger. The only reason I'm working is to help a friend run his business until he finds someone. Hopefully he finds someone soon because this is my last winter in PA. I need warm weather and beaches to live out my retirement years.
Bought some sugarless candy, getting tired of lifesavers and pretzels while I'm driving around 3-4 hours a day. Lung capacity is getting better, doing about 2.5 - 3 miles a few times a week on the treadmill but don't seem to be losing weight. Got a Dr appointment tomorrow to discuss BP meds which I think may be causing it. I don't know...
My last quit lasted three years, 34 months to pass that record. Got some new motivation, my great-nephew (at least it looks like a boy from the sonogram) coming in about six weeks. Someone has to be around to teach him the "pull my finger" gag 😁. My sister-in-law always hated me for teaching her kids that.
Ok, done rambling for this week. Thanks for the support and motivation. Wouldn't have made it this far without this sight.
