We Quit Cigarettes

[jolenesdad]

@jolenesdad how are you doing with quitting?

@jolenesdad Are you done yet?

Sorry I’ve been MIA! Crazy week.

Truthfully I can’t get away from it so far. I keep having little slipups. Like 2 days or even almost 3 day slipups. I’ll go three days witbojt I keep mentally freaking out like “if you make it 3 whole days you’re really done and can’t ever go back” moments that I know are chemically addiction related but.... they’re there. And then I just give in like whatever I know I can do it again for a few days and maybe make it longer.

cold turkey has been hard. But for the entire first week that demon was hitting me at 1 day and I would give in. Now it’s 2 and then 3 days. I’m only seeing progress, although the goal is taking longer.

Not about to give up. It just happens to be more of a process for me right now I guess.

Day 2, I kept busy yesterday, running behind the baby and driving DD to regionals in pre calc. had to drive to another city didn't miss smoking at all. Today, I keep thinking I am forgetting something but I am not jonseing for a smoke

Where are you going to apply this week?

I’m not sure. I doubt I’ll even have time this week unless I do some tonight and Friday, which I will probably do. The rest of the week is completely chock full of dog sitting and walking clients and I’ll barely even have a minute to breathe or eat let alone sit down and take a few hours to apply anywhere. But I think I might try to squeeze some apps in if I can find the time.

I could get a dragon with it when there's a will there's a way.

not unless you wanna get killed!

You hiked an entire mountain and then stayed outside!?

I had stuff to get done.

Love bicycling; hate bumps; live on a barely maintained gravel road.

x2. I live on one now and I grew up on one as well. The first time I took my bike on a paved road, I was slightly terrified. It felt like the bike had no contact with the ground.

 

[ShrekDawg]

That's cause you don't have a job.
Don't sit down until you have found one.

I actually slayed it last night and today with laughter & happiness.

Haven’t stopped smiling and laughing yet.

It was that awesome haha

But I still am doing this too.

It would be easy to say oh, I'll just smoke one, keep pushing through you can do it. I understand where you are coming from. I mean who would know it I smoked 1? I WOULD KNOW, and I am the important person. tomorrow decide you will wait 4 days to smoke if you must. Keep doing that until it works if that's what works for you. Good luck with whatever works, just don't give up.

Try harder.

I am. And have been. And still am.

I think I would have passed out.

@BantyChooks I live in the city and most of our streets are poorly maintained gravel roads. This seems to be the norm for us since Katrina, and I don't think it will ever change.
