Hi there Loulou,
[quote]
I find myself with spare time, and I also find the day drags on, the hours go by slowly.

I'm no mathmatician but here goes......
30 cigarettes a day x 10 minutes each = 300 Minutes or.... 5 hours of sucking on a fag a day ! :8o:
wake up & smell the roses cos you've just gained lets see......
1 cigarette = 10 minutes & we usually smoke 3 cigarettes in 1 hour so this means we spent 30 minutes an hour sucking on a cigarette.
According to my calcs, you've just gained yourself 30 minutes every hour.
so in reality - each hour actually has 90 Minutes, so you're not far wrong.
;)

Hi Loulou.
Fellow cold turkey quitter here. Oh the time goes so slow during those first few days. Don't worry, time will speed back up. You will also be amazed at how much time you use to spend smoking. You are about to have some free time on your hands. Now is a good time to start a new hobby. One that occupies your mind and your hands.
Congralations on your decision to take your life back! Take it 5 minutes at a time, take a lot of deep breaths and continue to drink a lot of water. You CAN do this and you will be so glad you did.
