I agree with Mr. Ed.
This morning I woke up, sat down in front of the computer to do some bills, got up for a cup of coffee, walked out on the deck and went looking for my cigarettes. A habit, muscle memory, conditioning, call it what you will. My memory triggered the urge for a smoke. I always went out for a smoke on the deck first thing in the morning. I did it for years and years. Been quit for 100+ days now and still I want to go do the things I always did.
It's a memory. It's a habit.
I can forget, and I can change. So can you but it will take time. I think I'll be working on this quit for a few years before I finally forget I was a smoker, if ever. So what. I'm tough enough to do that.
Hang in there. I am. So is Mr Ed.
