We Quit Cigarettes

Did you backslide?

She is ok.
She knows she can do it now.
She will do it again.

Did you backslide?

Uh huh.
I did. Whenever my best friend's mom died and I was with everyone for the funeral.
Everyone smokes and it was a rough time. Haven't given it back up yet.

I still haven't hung out with anyone who smokes...no get-togethers or parties...nothing. This is one good thing about the whole Covid nightmare.

I gotta figure out how to WANT to stop again.
Right now I don't wanna.

That wanting part is a really really hard but huge part.
It's the only thing that will make anyone quit...that I am sure of.

Plus I gained some weight and that pissed me off.
I'm still working on that.
Maybe when I reach my goal...
I try try again.

Yeah... That weekend done me in.
I know realistically smoking doesn't help a dam thing...
But it sure is easy to rationalize that it does.
So much loss this past year. I tell myself
I could be doing worse things..

Pissed off can be a good thing.
This coming year I will focus on weight and strength.

You got grit girl! True grit.

I plan to pop in and post once I have been cigarette free for a couple weeks.

You don't have to wait that long... Several folks were popping in every day or so - regardless if they were on or off the wagon...
