I start my new quit tomorrow!!!! 2 months ago, I gave in to the demon after 107 days and I have been scratching and clawing my way back to making a firm commitment again. It has been difficult, but I am here with a renewed COMMITMENT to myself and my quit. I will protect it at all costs. I also have renewed my DETERMINATION...to make this my final quit. I am really tired of banging my head against the wall. No need to do that anymore. What worked for me then was making a CHOICE...every time and in every situation and with every emotion. I will not give in and I will not give up. I am an addict and always will be. [i]"Like Diamonds, but without the sparkle, addictions are forever."[/i] Before I lost my quit, I was tired of fighting. I thought I had become addicted to the SCC and started to back away. BIG MISTAKE. Funny... since then I haven't gone very far away at all, just lurking in the background these last few weeks, trying to get my head out of the smoky clouds. I can see daylight now and reality. Smoking Sucks and I WANT OUT!!! I chose this as my quit date because I am on vacation and planned it so that I could take all the time I need this week to focus on HELL WEEK...one minute at a time. With the SCC support family and my DESIRE TO BE FREE, I will be successful in my Quest for FREEDOM!!!!

Checkin in early again...On the way to re-mortgage the house....Talk about white knuckles. Leavin the money at home though. Still don't trust myself to put up the fight when the computer isn't in my lap.

Thanks everyone for the well wishes. Really helps with the motivation. Well I didn't actually get this not smoking thing happening until about 1:30p.m., but I have done it. I have stopped and that seems to have been a hard thing for me....the starting. So now that I have actually started, I don't have to worry about the failure thing as long as I remember NOPE. Had a rough time around the supper hour, but I made it through --one minute, then the next, then the next. I think I will take you up on the offer of the accountability partner Lady, Riverdale Man. for the first weeks anyway -- 5:00pm CST?

Checkin in early today. On my way to a meeting that will run past the supper hour. Good day today. A few tiny battles, but I think I'll empty the wallet before I leave.

Good Plan except when you need gas and have no money. [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 5/23/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 1 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 44 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $11.5 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 0 [B]Hrs:[/B] 4 [B]Mins:[/B] 10 [B]Seconds:[/B] 15
