Weekend Adventures

It's no secret that I avoided (boycotted) non smoking places. So I actually miss out on a lot of fun. Friday night my friend and I went to a knitting event. Now before you judge, just know we enjoyed munchies, beer and wine, lots of laughter and good company. I am not a drinker, but it is fun to watch others. The point is.....ONE cigarette all evening!

Saturday night I actually accepted an invitation to a non smoking friend's house. THAT is a first! Joe and I joined 2 other couples for a fun evening and I really was not miserable. I went outside when the craving got bad, lit up....took my little fix and put it out. I made that same cigarette suffice for the evening, visiting it twice. (They are nasty on the re-light).

Now of course, I stopped for a cup of coffee and lit up on the way home, but the miracle is that I am starting to go places, do things and have fun without smoking. I am making progress every day!
