Every day I discover things that build up to my new sense of freedom, let's see if I can list some, and you can add to the list if you so desire:
no need to make sure I have my pack before I leave the house
no more planning on finding a smoking place to an event I attend
no need to squeeze a pack of cigarettes in my little purse I take to an event
no yucky smell every time I turn the AC on in the car
no need to be the only one stepping out to have a smoke during a longer lunch
not having to wait for another elevator because I know I smell like tobacco, and I am ashamed of it
not panicking at night because I only have 2or 3 left in the house
not being scared the security at the airport will take away my lighter if in the carryon, or have to wait to get it out of my check in luggage...
Oh, I could spend my day listing all things contributing to my peace of mind because I am becoming an ex-smoker...and I never before realized how many reasons for anxiety I had, just because I was a smoker !
So greatful to be here today, and to have you all by my side!
Thank You!
