Days turn into weeks turn into months ...

So I'm now at day 11, I'm loving the chocolates and eucalyptus lollies. I'm sorry if what I write seems like rambling or just plain nonsense, this is what happens to my brain when I quit, it kind of gets scrambled for a couple of weeks. I feel really good about myself and that I have made it to today. Up until day three i had been using patches and was doing fine, but On day 3 I had my 4 wisdom teeth surgically removed, as well as a molar! Since then I had not used anything and have been coping fine with the withdrawals. On the first couple of days my eyes go funny my mouth waters a lot, and I feel really strange, that's the hardest times to resist having a smoke because I just want to feel normal and function normally! ( see what smokes do to me ??, makes me think that's the only way I feel normal??) that's not normal. I'm really happy that I have had control of my life for the last 11 days instead of shredded leaves with toxins rolled up in little pieces of paper! Im not giving in to any cravings, there is never a good enough reason for a slip up, theres always more reasons not to slip up. I gave in when there was a car accident and someone wasnt coming home, i gave in when there was a stroke in the family, i gave in when there was a terminal ilness diagnosis, and not once did giving in and smoking help me get through any of those times, it didnt make it easier, it didnt make it better! Im not making anymore excuses beacuse im through with justifying my excuses to myself! Im counting the days which will turn into weeks then months so i cant wait till next year when I say I have been smoke free for a year!
