Journal Entry for October 26, 2008 Mood
Sunday, October 26, 2008

I have 3 packs of cigs left from the carton I broke down and bought on the 10th.

I don't take them with me when I leave the house or have one everytime I wake up at night.

(Which is usually 3 or 4 times.)

So THAT part of the habit is still a plus that I am continuing.

 

 I feel bad, the cough is back (even though I didn't THINK I had a smoker's cough, I now realize that is exactly what that hacking sound is! :)

AND, the periodical wheezing is no fun either.

Last but not least, I was so "happy"(?) "proud"(?) (are those MY words? :) that I had accomplished something so I really let myself down but am ready to pick myself back up.

(While I am still breathing without oxygen.)

THIS WILL BE THE LAST TIME THIS TIME.

I will smoke these 3 packs and quit forEVER!

SHOOTING for the 1st of November (which is another damn weekend, grrrr...) so I'm looking for something symbolic with that date like the one of 8-8-08.

I'm still kicking myself for starting again as anyone with depression KNOWS, it helps NOTHING.

Just like drinking helped NOTHING!!

Although I won't be a part of Team 8-8-08, :( you ALL are my inspiration!

    You go girl, you are so determined. But if you fall, just pick yourself up and try again; don't beat yourself up. You have nothing to feel ashamed of, I give you all the credit in the world, Gaye. Love and hugs.

    I really hope you can beat that terrible nicotine habit. Not only is it expensive and stinks,it's a killer too! My beloved mom smoked for 40+ years,now has lung cancer(terminal diagnosis). My prayers are with you,Katie
