Day 70 Reflections
Wow I still can't believe I have made it 70 days and the countless ways my life has improved over that time. I am not tied down to nicotine and my use of smokey mountain is dropping quickly. Cravings are very controllable and my anxiety levels are dropping. For the first time in 15 years I am facing stresses head on instead of hiding behind a can. There is this very shiny thing in a little box hidden in my closet.
Definitely starting to enter the funk. My ambition is almost down to zero. Went several days posting and ghosting and was getting burned out on my quit. That changed yesterday when I started messaging a new quitter and helping him through his first couple of days quit. I still can't believe how much life it brought back into my quit and I thank the Lord I can pass on the knowledge I have learned and help someone else for freedom. If only US Smokeless could package that feeling into a tin.
We are now entering into my favorite musical time of the year. I sing in several different church choirs and I am getting all the music in for this year. I am excited that I will be able to enjoy fellowship with other members of the choir instead of sitting alone in my car getting another nicotine hit between rehearsal and the concert. It's downright scary how much influence that little can had over me.
30 days until HOF, 30 days until dropping down on one knee, 38 days until Christmas.
I am proud to quit with all of you today.
