Day 35 of my abstinence and I feel like crud....worse than crud.....
Last night was my first 'social event' without the evil weed, sitting by friends who were industriously rolling their own cigs and by the door to the car park where people were smoking.
It was the Mediaeval Banquet for the Company of Chivalry. I finally handed in my application last night - only to be told that a new form was being sent out in a couple of weeks!
The entire company were there, bar a couple, and what a lot of new faces - so I stuck with the people I knew already. So there was about 40 of us for a seven course meal, cooked by our own Vintner, and the various promotions within the company. My beloved Aginoths have been promoted to yeomen - while I am a villein as a newbie.
I'm waiting on Aginoth to send me some photos to use, 'cos I forgot to put batteries in my camera! He kindly took a photo of me, Mrs A and Vic in our dresses.
We had some knightings, some promotions and some punishments. Some drank too much too early, some drank late into the night (early morning!), some (like me) drank in moderation and flaked at about 1am.
It was fun, and interesting, and educational.
Huzzah Hungerford!!

now I need some sleep..........
No sleep apart from a brief nap today. Sinuses are heating up nicely and a fine headache is brewing. I think a nice bubble bath and an early night is called for......so I will be well for work tomorrow.

The social things with others that smoke---very hard! But hear you are 35 days!!! Hooray For You, even though you feel like crud, my dear. A Applaud You!
35 days ALREADY! WOW I am really proud of you. I am glad that you enjoyed the evening out, however I understand that you must have found it really hard. Keep going
I'm proud of you -- abstinence is really tough, but worthwhile... I sure hope we're still talking about smoking! :)
Huzzah! My beans sumtimes attend Renaissance Faires, but don't dress up. Loads of fun.
Drinking tends to make Mom sleepy and attack her sinuses, so she's flakin wif you, drinkin moderately an not stayin up too late. Huzzah!
Sounds like fun. Congrats on quitting smoking.
See you are doing so well ... 35 days!! Thats 5 weeks ... almost 10% of a year, or look at it the other way on 20 a day that's £178.50! Well done cq :o)
I am in awe of the courage that it takes to quit this most addictive of all substances. My father had to quit his years of secret-smoking after his heart went south and he needed multiple surgeries to correct everything. He learned his lesson too late: looks like you're on the happy side of that curve.
I'm proud and impressed. I know I'd be completely incapable if I were in the same boat. Back from Michele's again. Hope you're not sick of me!
