remember when you were a kid and it was so exciting to be turning 10? Double digits...finally!!!! No longer a baby...then it was 13, finally a teen, then 16, finally I can drive, then 18, “I’m a grown ass man” were my sons exact words during an argument...then 21, I can drink legally....then after that it’s all down hill. Guess what??? Tomorrow I will no longer be a baby...yup today is day 9...I am no fool and I know this is a lifetime addiction that I won’t allow the drug to be reintroduced into my body so.....nope....never again and yay me blessings to those here as well.

Started smoking to be cool and that was was 46 years ago with a break for boot camp and two pregnancies. Figured one cigarette with a cocktail wouldn’t hurt and now I’m diagnosed with emphysema, huh that didn’t work out as planned...you would think working in a hospital and watching your mother die of lung cancer would motivate me but apparently I’m a slow learner. Scared to quit but I know my life depends on it.
