This one really snuck up on me. I was stopped at the store and before I knew it I had bought a pack and lit one up before even making it to the door! I was not mad, sad, angry, hungry....just weak :( Once I realized what was happening, I SHOULD have thrown them out, but did not. Smoked about 1/2 the pack before I did throw the rest out. Practice makes perfect. My husband has not been smug about his quitting and my struggling, but I find myself very resentful towards him.....

It's a deal, Sparky. I'm getting a bit sick of the constant withdrawels. I am proud of my husband for quitting, just terribly jealous that it has been such a breeze for him. That's why I had been sneaking to smoke, because I was afraid that if I smoked, he would, and then I would have less incentive to quit. Does that make any sense at all? :quest:
Marie: Just in time for my newest quit, my 10 and 5 mg from New Zealand just came in. I think it's a sign. I am leaving in just a bit to go to Memphis with my youngest and my [i]mother[/i]. No chance of smoking with those two. Mom's a nag and the 10 year old is a tattle-tale! ;) Be back late Sunday.
Found a computer in the hotel to use. Have not really thought about smoking during this trip. OK, OK...I HAVE thought about it, but it was just a fleeting thought. Still smoke free in Tennessee! :)
