Today is my 41st Birthday! I am happy to say it is also day 16 smoke free.
My reasons for wanting to become an Ex.. I became a grandmother on Feb 24th to a beautiful little boy Riker. I had been telling myself for the previous two years I wanted to quit. I told myself, I would do it just as soon as I got through what ever I could come up with in my mind to keep me from it. I sat down one evening and went through some family photos.. I saw myself with cigarettes in my hand in more than half. It was not the picture I wanted my grandson to see. I went in to see my doctor for my *old lady check up* and asked her for a prescription for Chantix. Last night I had dinner with a close friend and he said I have seen a definitive change in you. He told me I seem calmer, happier and the biggest change is that I am handling my stress issues more confidently. And most importantly I am not grabbing for a cigarette!
To all here is a to a new life ! Happy Birthday to all !
