In a whirlwind

Have to keep blowing out air.  So much going on.  My 93 year old day has returned to stay at my home.  Today with Nurses, Physical Therapist, Supervisors, Social Services and on and on and on.  Phone calls. Friend broke his leg needs me to go to the grocery store. Keeps calling back adding to the list.  Another friend called wants me to help him pack he has to be out of his apartment by Friday. Same friend that burnt me with a cigarette several months ago.    Damn didnt I just help him move in? New male friend wants me to go fishing. Enough to make you want to drink.  But I keep blowing.  Now back to my dad he has lost a check $30,000.00 check that he that loses every day.  Wants me to help him look for it and at the same time accusing me of stealing it.  Can not win for losing situation.  But smoking is not an option.  What would it fix.  Yes, I too have my moments of stress but there is no reason for me to smoke.  Just keep blowing.  When he falls asleep I am getting the hell out of here and go fishing. I just have to  laugh and stay busy so I will not blow up on anybody if I haven' already.  Didn't I learn well into this quit that I have to take care of me first.  DAH Jackie.  Holla back.  This is only a movie. Would some one talk some sanity to me. I am strong I am a non smoker. After reading this blog I had to laugh.

Lay aside every weight that may be slowing you down. Make up your mind not to allow doubt cause you to stumble. You can do this! Do not allow fear , False Expectations Appearing Real to hold you down. You can do this! Break the chains of addiction, forgive yourself for ever smoking. move forward and start loving yourself more each day by staying smokefree. Put aside worry, anxiety, depression, any EXcuse that you would use to not get in or stay in the race of freedom. Take one day at a time, one step if necessary. Run the race diligently, steady and sure with endurance. Believe that you can. Keep your eye on the prize. Hang tough, stay close, be mindful, never give in, never give up.
