Sugar Cookies

Baked some pumpkins and turkeys today.
Can't tell them apart.
Before I quit, this would have driven me crazy.
I go with the flow now.

In the days of smoking,,,
It was, 
 do something, smoke, do something else, smoke.
The desire never ended.

I had to have a real and perfect tree every year.
Artificial with lights this year.
Pencil type and decorated in fall colors for Thanksgiving.
Can change it out next week and leave it up till when ever.

Freedom from smoking comes in many forms.
(Maybe getting older helps a bit too) .

Something you can count on is change in your life,
one way or the other.
Let quitting smoking be a good reason for change.

Hope you have a wonderful and thankful week.
I will always be thankful for QSJ!


 

Not One Puff Ever and

P.S.
I wrote two very long post this past two days and for some reason they did not take.
Guess things happen for a reason.

Don't dream up thousands of reasons
why you can't do what you want to; find one reason why you CAN.
