Newly found freedom

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!

Daniela
