Anniversary, Cleaning and the Academy Awards

This is a biggie. I just celebrated my ONE YEAR anniversary of no smoking. Actually it was on the 18th of Feb. So another week has been added. I am so happy I don't smoke anymore. I do feel as if I have been a bit depressed but unaware of it. I have wanted to do nothing as far as cleaning or organizing. Yes, I am getting flylady daily and I delete them after I get too many.

I am beginning to se signs of Spring though. Cleaned a storage closet in the garage with the girls yesterday. That was all I wanted to do and it took the three of us an hour. Today, I cleaned out three junk drawers! I found a necklace I have been looking for, among other things. I have a long way to go. One cabinet and drawer at a time. It will take a long time, but it feels good.

I enjoyed the Academy Awards last night. I would have liked to see more Ellen though. She is so funny. I was happy Alan Arkin won. I love surprises. I get bored with shows where the expected happens. I was happy with the outcome of last night's show though. I am over the awards for now though. It is time to give it a rest finally!

I'm trying to use my week layoff to get some cleaning and other things done here; so far I'm not moving to fast, but going to step away from my magic box here in a bit and stay away for a few days...

I am so very very proud of you for "slaying the dragon" that quitting entails. It's the hardest thing I've ever done in my life, and all these years later I'm so very glad I did every time I add up the dollars it would have cost since (they were only $18 a carton when we quit buying our 5 cartons a week between us) and the toll they'd have taken on our health.

Thank you for fighting this battle and winning! I'd like to hope that 50 years from now we'll both still be around and healthy and meeting here in this magical world!
