Day 2 - Cleaner house, cleaner lungs, cleaner life

Posted in Staying quit
schedule 20 May 2016

Yesterday was a bit weirder than I expected, I could barely concentrate and was a little grouchy but I think I would have been anyway, just one of those days. I was home alone last night, my partner had to work away (he's a smoker), so in some ways it was easier and harder. Easier as he wasn't smoking in front of me but harder as I felt a bit lost. So I opened a bottle of wine. I had 3 glasses, I know that's not great but it felt better than reaching for a stick. I didn't have a stick at all. I slept better last night, whether that was smokeless, the 3 wines or having the bed to myself I don't know, ha ha ha. I feel better today, my mind feels still and I feel proud of myself. I spent a bit of time cleaning the house, so on top of stopping smoking, saving money and getting my health back, I also have a very clean house. What's not to love? I just need my partner to do the same then all the jobs on the list will be done too :)

I've been making myself a cup of green tea and Jasmine every time I get restless. I can't say that there's a yearning for a stick but it's just a pause in the day when I would normally go for one, so I feel a little lost. Once I gather myself, I do feel fine again. Thanks IC
