T-Minus 26 Days…

Posted by GeekByMarriage at 7:50 PM
Until my quit date.

I told Jase a few minutes ago that he should check my blog that I’d made an announcement. He read it, looked at me in shock, then turned to the kids and yelled, “RUN FOR THE HILLS! SAVE YOURSELVES!”
We’ve been through this before and it wasn’t pretty. I screamed at him for leaving coffee in the coffee pot all day. WTF I don’t even drink coffee so why should I have cared?

I will try not to bore you guys to death with this stuff but I think my blog is going to be a good way to channel my emotions during this time. Maybe I should start a side blog. HERE WE ARE!

Cigarettes have been a part of my life for so long. I started when I was 15 and now I am 30. It’s gotten to the point that I am smoking 2 packs a damn day. The problem is that I sit in my house 24.7 and mindlessly smoke.

First step: Cut back! No more reaching for my pack without even thinking about it. I have a kitchen timer next to me and when it goes off I can have a cigarette. I do think it might take flight across my living room because the ticking is LOUD!!

To make sure I don’t do the Zombie Smoke I have relocated my cigs to a safe area out of my reach. That means if I want a cig I have to make a conscious decision to get my fat ass up and go get it. Maybe I should put the timer with them?

All the stop smoking tips talk about avoiding the situations that lead you to smoke. I’d have to be cryogenically frozen for that to be possible. Going to deal with it one day at a time. Even though I have not fully quit yet I am taking the steps necessary to making it happen.
