Here I go again!

Tomorrow is my quit day.  I have somehow managed to get my smoking down from a pack a day to a half a pack a day in the past two weeks.  I have smoked for 21 years and have tried quitting numerous times.  I made it two months the last time and then had a stressful day at work and that was all the excuse I needed to start again.  I am committed to making it this time!  I even posted my quit date on my facebook page so everyone could see it and hold me accountable.  I am a special education teacher and my job will always be stressful so that is a cop-out!  I am a mother of two great children who both have wanted me to quit for eons.  When I told my son I was quitting again he said, "You'll just start again like you always do!"  Broke my heart and gave me a little boost of confidence all at the same time!  I thought, "Oh I am so showing him!"  I want this soooo badly!  I am starting to show the little signs of smoking-my hair is brittle, my eyes have huge bags under them that won't go away no matter how much sleep I get.  I lose my breath when I'm having a conversation.  It's time to stop this madness once and for all!
