Good Morning EV1!

SpaceRider (Mike)

Thanks for starting the members daily blog!

Still not smoking.. ... It is a challenge that I hope to dominate for the rest of my life... I find myself.. doing things smoking related with out smoking... Like reaching for one while drinking my morning coffee..
Or even after a meal... my brain Immediately says...lets have a smoke...
Theres just so many areas of my life affected by it... Changing that train of thought is a whole different story!

I do however, sleep better and more soundly.. I'm not waking up with a stuffy head/sinus issues... I'm not coughing and hacking when I lay down for the night... Today... I noticed.. my morning coffee taste's different. lol

I know I tried to quit last year around this time... and failed miserably...
today is day 6.. Hopefully one day I will no longer have to count the number of days that I am not smoking... When that day comes... Will that mean I have become a non smoker? I hope so!

I have been tinkering/detailing out the Monte some more... Heres my problem.... The more I eye ball it and the more I try to do some serious detailing.. The more flaws I find... (Signs of age ,wear, usage) as it history of having been a daily driver for the last 13 yrs...

Now it just boils down to this....
Acceptance!!!! LOL It will never be factory new ever again... I certainly willnot/cannot afford to be doing a full restoration... at least not at this point in my life... So I have decided to make it the best it can be in its as is condition..
I did however take a trip to the local boneyard (3 of them) and of course there werent even any decent hoods there for a 5th Gen... that was worth restoring or to use as a replacement for mine... So my only resolve will be to get a OEM replacement... and have it painted...

Hope everyone had a Great weekend ...
Have a Great Monday EV1!

 

Thanks Admin `Mike 4 your update >"If it's not one thing ...>it's another" It sure can test a persons patience 4>Sure...

David, great job still not smoking! keep it up buddy!

 

Hang in there David! Day 6 and day 7 are the big ones! I always say it takes 7 days to break a habit. That doesn't mean your out of the water on day 8, but I believe it will actually get easier from there on.
