It's me again....

17 years ago 0 +0 / -0 392

Thanks everyone. Well, today is day 2 of my humpteenth journey. I haven't been able to quit cold turkey, the patch does me weird, my insurance company will not pay for wellbutrin, or chantix right now, so I'm trying this alone. So, what I'm doing is exactly what the program says, I am cutting back and stretching normal smoking times out as far as I can. I am not near as anxious doing it this way and eventually I will get to the big zero a day. I don't care if it takes me a month, I will get there. I'm really liking Curves and I walked 2 miles when I got home yesterday. I soooo don't want to smoke after exercising, I guess it feels like my lungs are wide open or something. So, I'm quitting, but not quit but I am doing great so far at quitting. Does that make sense?

Well I made it thru the afternoon at work. OMG though, bout took off my boss's head. He is one of these people that always sees things on the negative side and never on the positive side. He goes on and on about how bad things are, but they are never never that bad. It's kind of hard for me feeling sorry for a multi millionaire. :p I just very calmly told him, that although I know he believes all that is true, I personally cannot handle any negativity right now. LOL!!! He looked at me like I was from another planet and went back in his office! I was really snappy all afternoon though, I did apologize to another person and explained why I was snappy. Gotta practice smiling and breathing more I guess....
