Not doing that good

Thanks Tutti,I am so determined to quit ,but I am having a terrible time with stickin to it.At work ,I get bored and relied on those cigs for get away time.I know ,I dont want to smoke,just having a difficult time making myself do it.I sometimes think ,I could smoke a cig in the morning and one in the evening and be content this way the rest of my life.Is this foolish thinking,or what ?

I have no lighters ,cigarettes or anything to do with a smoke,I have got to do this.There is nothing in my home or work area that has to do with smoking,I got rid of that back on 3/15/07,my first quit date.I been bumming off of coworkers,how embrassing to admit,Lord help me.

THANKS AGAIN,JDK I have sat here and thought why I bummed those cigs,I really have no excuses and really didnt even want them.I am sitting here convincing myself with friends like you, that I can do this.I had stopped taking the chantix ,but started back yesterday morning where I left off,2 blues aday.Hopefully they will kick in and help me to stop smoking again.I had not used them for over a week now,the reason, I had stopped is that they upset my stomach and I could not sleep.The chantix was working great for me otherwise,so I will go at a quit again,Iam determined to quit,however long it takes.
