hello everyone it's me smokefreemom,

i've got bad news for you all i went back to smoking i should of told you all this sooner but i am so ashamed of myself for not trying hard enough. please don't be disapointed in me i feel really bad. my oldest child just graduated in june and i haven't heard from her since her recent letter. i wonder if she's busy looking into different colleges so she can decide which to go to or is she mad at me because in my recent letter to her and her brother who turned 17 this july 10th that i started smoking again. i just hope and pray that she's not mad at me she's just very busy at this moment so how is everyone doing since my last visit here or my visit here now?. hopefully it's good news i'm going to try and post a video journal and see how that comes out. so you can see what i look like hope it comes out alright. well i will post in my journal again in the future to keep you all updated. till then take care all of you i'm so happy to have you as friendsCool thanks

    Hi: You're being too hard on yourself. Quitting smoking is one of the hardest thing I have ever done--went back to college at age 55 graduated top of my class at age 60, and all that was a piece of cake compared to quitting smoking. Thanks to CHANTIX, I have been smoke free for 5 months, but I still want a cigarette. I chew on wooden tooth picks and keep a fresh cup of coffee handy all the time--love taking my late afternoon walk around the neighborhood. It is nice that your children care if you smoke or not--mine don't care one way or the other so you are lucky in that regard. You have nothing to be ashamed of smokefreemom, you just took a little detour. Kathy

    Been there, done that... & the worst thing you can do is worry about it. I quit for a year & started back... it ain't easy to stay quit. Been doing it since I was 21 & anybody who thinks you can do it easily, just doesn't have a clue.
    Hugs & love.. Mona
