ABOUT MY DINNER LAST NIGHT......... It was so much better than I expected, I wanted to eat outside for the fresh air and silly me 2 people were smoking out there, the funny thing is I thought about the reasons that you guys have shared and IT helped !!! I wasn't envoius I felt VICTORIOUS !!!.............. so I believe I'm begining to feel more confident about handling myself in diiferent surroundings, I still have a long way to go... but one event at a time. It feels even better because.. I am not smoking (smile) Thanks for the ideas and support it really helped....peace
