Manic Monday
The start of a glorious new week....yet once again all I could think about this morning was pulling over and buying a pack of smokes at the store on the way to work. It's been over 65 days, this week in particular has been very very difficult....I can't stop at my usual store for even a coke now cause I do not trust myself!Here are the reasons I've convinced myself so far not to give in.....
1. The Man will kill me, he expressly told me this already, in very unpleasant terms! (Me thinks he would secretly love me to start again, then he could!)
2. My children would be disappointment in me....if they found out....
3. My work would sack me. They are awesome people but I do not see them tolerating a smoker in the office, as small of a firm as it is.
4. I would stink, again.
5. Smoker lung when I attempt to exercise or even climb stairs (nasty nasty cough)
So this is the top 5....I'm thinking that perhaps I have a slightly addictive personality....maybe this is why I have such a hard time dumping Dr. Pepper for Diet! And why smoking still looks very very good to me, when it's a slam dunk "duh" for other people! Boy, it's a good thing I never tried smack, or crack or whatever they call it!

Get addicted to sex.... your husband will LOVE you for it!!!! LOL. Your top five are very good reasons..... but you need to do it for you! The others are outside factors. YOU CAN DO IT>>>> I've got the pompoms pumping for you girl!
I can't believe you just advised me to have more sex....lol The Man isn't going to believe that!
You can do it! Next year at this time you will be saying "I can't believe I didn't quit sooner". I remember being where you are now and it's now been over 5 years...and if I can do it, anybody can....I am the worst at will power and have a very addictive personality!
Believe me, it DOES get easier! Just think of all the money you are saving! Hang in there!
