My day as it goes

Good Morning all. I started a journal this morning, full of tips that have been shared here that will help me along the way. I'm also journaling my thoughts and feelings on smoking and not smoking and thus far NOT smoking is coming out the winner.  Yesterday I practiced skipping a smoke at 3 different trigger points, while we were out shopping. I almost came out a winner as by the 3rd trigger I just had to light up. Today we are promised sunshine and temps in the 50's. I'm going to be outside planting flower seeds in my pots. I have a rock garden where I set out pots to plant...no weeds in a rock garden, gotta love it. Anyways, I'll be busy on a nice day and will smoke way less and I have chosen that when I do smoke, I will have given it  great thought whether I should or not. The 6th is just around the corner and I want my first quit day to go as smoothly as possible. Easier to quit a few cigarettes than 2 packs as I was used to. Hope you all have a great day!

Gone but Not Forgotten. RIP - they leave a legacy of their quit journeys behind as road maps for future members, to prevent the pitfalls, provide the tools and show the hope and possibilities for success at overcoming this addiction at any age at any stage. I am a 62 year old suffering with moderate COPD. I have relapsed several times from my quit, but I will keep trying till I get it right! "Your mind controls your quit but you control your mind. Don't let your emotions spoil your quit!" Don't allow a stumble to be the end of the journey. The difference between a good day and a bad day is attitude!
