Hey Dave!!!

Why the heck didn't you invite me???

Sounds like you had a fantastic vacation and yes, I am jealous, but I'll get over it!

Congrats of blowing off the stinkin' demon while enjoying your time in paradise! Those triggers are going to continue to hit us every now and then, but the good thing is we know what NOPE is all about! Proud of you, pardner!

I was expecting nothing less, you buddy of mine. I am happy you did not let the blue smoke lure you back into the trap.

Keep the quit

The journey to be an ex-smoker continues. I am very refreshed and renewed after a week's holiday in Punta Cana, D.R. The fresh air, white sand, blue water and free time did my mind a world of good.

Life continues to be a reawakening after 30+ years of being the victim of the nicotine addiction. One new chapter of this journey deals with being on foreign soil in a resort community with NO place prohibited from smoking.

For eight days I saw and smelled cigar, cigarette, pipe, ??? smoke on a consistent basis. I fought with the demon HARD from time to time. I dreamed of smoking. I smelled smoke in my sleep. I envisioned a lighter in one pocket and pack of smokes in the other. I considered how I would handle the buzz of a first smoke. I was offered a cigar from my beach neighbor.

The victory? I declined. I remain free. I am resolute in my desire to be free and will not return to the habits of the past. But continue to build new habits for my smokefree life.

For example, I enjoyed snorkeling and swimming with stingrays and nurse sharks....something I would never have considered as a smoker. What a tremendous joy to experience the wonders of nature (without wheezing and hacking) and sharing with family.

I won this battle and will continue to remain focused on the prize.....breathing freely!!!!

Keep the Quit,

Dave
