Don't Stress the Small Stuff ~

My new boss needs a new whipping boy ... So glad it can be me.

Couple that with two of my four kids leaving for bootcamp this week, my other two -- one across country, the other across the globe -- and I have to say I have a stress filled week.

Oh -- and my annual Christmas job at the Post Office. This is my second year there as a non smoker, which is a very good thing considering how cold it is outside.

Anyway, I was just sitting in my bosses office getting 're-directed' and all I could think about was how much longer would it be before I could go outside and have smoke. But then I kept reminding myself that I do NOT smoke!

The thought actually occurred to me -- the VERY DANGEROUS thought, mind you -- that I wonder if it'd be okay to run to the store and just buy ONE pack of cigs .. and then just smoke ONE or maybe TWO ............. We all know how that goes.

I'm an addict; with an addictive personality, obviously .... & just like any recovering addict, there is now such thing as 'JUST ONE" .... only the LAST one!

And that was over 515 days ago for me ... & STILL counting. Thank Goodness. :)
