Random Ramblings

Just thinking of how thankful I am for my "new lease on life"!  My lungs are very grateful for the "cool drink of water", as in the graphic above! Thankful that I CAN live without a cigarette!  I won't lie to you,  there are times when I crave a cigarette, or I suppose I crave the nicotine.  Those are the times I grab a piece of chewing gum and wanting that taste of nicotine quickly passes without a hitch.  Surprisingly, to be around someone who is smoking does not bother me.  I don't feel an overpowering urge to grab their cigarette out of their mouth and put it in mine.  Instead, I want to grab it and stomp it on the ground!  OK, so it's been 3 weeks and 3 days and 17 hours, or something like that, since my last inhale.  I don't actually count the hours...I just figured it up for this posting.   Again, it's been easier that I ever imagined.  Why could I not do it sooner?  I just had to be ready...that was the key right there.
