Still not smoking, day 1110

On November 1, 2009 my first wife died a sad death and left her children without their birth mother. The beginning of a lifetime of recovery...

My world changed very much that day. It has been very different ever since.

And yet, I still don't smoke. I don't want to smoke, either. Even the day when the police stood in my doorway and said "We're sorry,. Your wife has passed" ... I did not want a cigarette.

If I can walk through that fire without nicotine. So can you.

1110 days, 13 hours, 13 minutes and 5 seconds smoke free.
38869 cigarettes not smoked.

980 Days, and still no Nicotine, no smokes

As I sit and work (listening to The Alan Parsons Project's Some Other Time), I realize that it has almost been a thousand days since I last smoked.

Despite topsy-turvy world, smoking doesn't even figure into my life any more. The rare thought of smoking usually is the vaguely occasional far-off call of nicotine - like whispers at a seance. The thing is, I'm not listening.

Back to work. There are more important things in the world than nicotine. So there.

951 Days Smober - and still being myself

Just postin' my stats.

I'm still alive here. Having a hard time with changing life, but still not smoking...

951 days, 8 minutes and 30 seconds smoke free.

33285 cigarettes not smoked.





Just an anecdote from my Facebook page once upon a time:
"Internet typing by myself:
"Now is the time for all good people to come to the aid of their countries."
Internet typing with the boys (DaddyKatz kittenz):
"Now is the psv8iawdo hyv;o8 . time for all good woi8eho;8o8v peple owrei; hbt to the aid of their countir ias ld;oh vs."

My cats Marshall and Jackson have been a spirit of good and calm and love. I'm so glad I have them.

Working in a new place now, no smokin' still

New job, kids at camp... still no desire to smoke.

I never would have guessed that I could make it this far...

"891 days, 22 hours, 49 minutes and 20 seconds smoke free.

31218 cigarettes not smoked."

I'm glad I'm alive and employed, even if the employer isn't very nice.

Remember, "Let yourself be awesome."
