A Week and a Half into My Sabbatical – The Number Say a Lot….

It’s been a week and a half since I started my sabbatical from social media, namely Facebook. Since that point in time, I’ve been posting on my WordPress website and that allows me to keep track of views and such.

This first graph shows a number of daily visitors to my page. February 19th got the most visitors and views, with 41 views and 30 visitors. The day previous to that, February 18th got 29 visitors and 29 views.

I know there are a few readers who are clicking the available link on my FB page to access my posts here, but WordPress itself has been the biggest supporter by far. Most all of my readers have subscribed to my blog on here.

One Year Mark of Smoking Cessation…

Today marks 365 consecutive days of not smoking a cigarette. There have been those times I’ve come close to lighting up, but have been able to stay away from any purchase or smoking of cigarettes.

While I have been able to stay away from smoking, I still do take nicotine lozenges or gum. And while I know it’s better than inhaling all those other chemicals and of course the smoke, I need to wean my way off those as well.

Last December I had nearly 6 months of going without a cigarette when I fell off the wagon. And it took nine weeks for me to get to the point I was ready to quit all over again. I also started walking around the same time I quit smoking again and that has been helpful as well.

So I have to give myself a pat on the back for having come this far. And here’s to another year of being without cigarettes in my life.

Day Nine Daily Writing Prompt…

Daily writing prompt
What bores you?
View all responses

I would say having to do any one thing for an extended period of time. And by extended period, it could be as short as twenty minutes. I have ADD and as such, find my wondering a lot. It’s difficult for me, for example to watch a full-length movie. I’m not very good at housework because completing it takes a focused, concentrated effort. I get especially bored when something requires that I sit still for any period of time.
