made it through the weekend

I had no idea how many people say "I only smoke when I drink"

It was a big weekend for get togethers and parties and I didn't slip. I drank and still didn't slip. I was prepared for it, gave myself a peptalk everytime someone lit a cigarette. I don't need those nasty little things! It was great!

22 days of freedom! My depression is lifting, my anxiety is getting less and less, and I've started branching out in my social circle. Running a 5k this weekend and taking a day trip to new orleans with some girlfriends. I couldn't have afforded to do it or even wanted to do it while I was a sad, anxious, smoker. The thought of the long car ride with no smoking would have sent me into a panic attack.
