ONE WEEK SMOKE-FREE :-)

I have made it through HE_ _ week!

One thing that's helped is a stress-relief tool I call my "pop-it."

I found it at our local drug store.

It's fashioned on the plastic packing material that is so fun to pop the bubbles.

Once you complete one side, you reverse it and do the other.

Neat, huh?

Prior to my first quitting on 8/25/2019, I was a heavy smoker for over 60 years. That time, I quit due to health concerns regarding clogged arteries to my brain. Tar deposits from cigarettes were making the situation worse. I had become a prime candidate for a stroke and required surgery to clean out my left carotid artery. I have relapsed 4X since that quit, the last one being on 05.15.2022. ( At one point in all of this madness, I had been quit for 1.5 years). Then on 9/7/2021 I began my recent eight month quit before my current relapse. I am in the process of planning a return to the non-smoking life. After more than 2 weeks of smoking, wheezing and coughing and being short of breath, I have set my new quit date of June 1, 2022 as the beginning of my forever quit. I am done with this madness!! God is good.
