Quitting

I'm sitting at Starbucks, learning to make use of the wireless internet available at different places. I quit my job effective last Friday and I quit smoking effective Friday night at 10 PM, so now I have to find ways to occupy my time and to save money. If I disconnect my internet at home, I can use the wi-fi available at a lot of places around town: the library, starbucks, schlotzky's, etc. I'm looking for other places that are available.

The library is comfortable and fairly quiet. Starbucks is cold, I'm sitting right under an AC vent and it's blowing full blast. It's so cold I'm shivering. The smart thing to do would be to move to another spot, but I don't want to inconvenience anyone.

Ah, that's better. Now the AC vent is only blowing on my left elbow.

After I quit smoking I spent most of the first three days at home. I could lay down and go to sleep if the cravings got really hard. It was a holiday weekend anyway, so I really needed to stay at home and look after Mom & Dad. I have some more freedom today because we have caregivers at the house with them.

I really need to develop a plan for my days. The Franklin-Covey planner on this computer should help with that but, as usual, I'm putting things off. I need to develop a mission statement and work on some goals and roles and values.

Too cold in here. must move on!
