Who's the Boss?

     Had  a choice to make this morning. I want to stay home and watch football. My fiance wants to  go shopping this afternoon. So I guess we are going shopping. When it comes to this kind of thing I usually will give in and do what she wants to do. I have never had a problem with someone else making decisions for me, lol. I have always been the kind of person who just "goes with the flow." Right  or wrong, this is me. EXCEPT when it came to quitting smoking. You can't let someone else make that decision for you. YOU must make that choice, and you must be in control. You have to take the responsibility, and everything that comes along with that choice. And you can NEVER give in to the nicodemon! This is one aspect of my life where I had to take the initiative. Sort of out of character for me, but it's the only way. Sometimes you must do what you have to do.

I quit smoking on March 26th, 2009. I smoked a pack a day for 25 years. I quit because I began having health issues in my early 40's. I had a TIA and a stroke a few years ago. I work as a home delivery salesperson.
