I decided to get out my spinning wheel and spin a yarn. Its a good way to get your mind off of things you dont want to think about. Just watching that mass of wool, turning into a ball a yarn. Should have thought of it sooner.

Day [IMG]http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f190/cuddlebug230/5.gif[/IMG] Boy this is really really ruff, emotions just keep going up and down. But afraid to complain to much, because it reminds me of the story of the boy who cried wolf to many times. But I promise I will not smoke I am tired of being in this situation. but I know I brought this on my self, I am the one that just needs to not smoke. That really sounds easy. but its nooooooooooot. Of course hubby still isnt helping much. I asked him not to leave any smokes lying around, its just to tempting. He said he was going to switch to chew. I hope he does. I feel bad for saying that, but it would get the smokes out of the house. Well have to get my son up for school.

[IMG]http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f190/cuddlebug230/messages/Thanks124.gif[/IMG] for being here. I want you to know what my main avalanche is, its Low self confidence. But I have been working on it. it has been with me most of my teenage and adult life. Being able to post this on this site is a really positive step for me. It is not an excuss to smoke, but it is a major obsticale that gets in my way at times. But each time I find my way around it, it gets a little better. I have set other goals in the past and when I reach them, I get stronger in my self confidence. My goal for now is to become a non - smoker for the rest of my life. I will not give up until I succeed.

Wow, Everyone here at SSC is totally [IMG]http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f190/cuddlebug230/messages/114580800040826.gif[/IMG] And it is great to be able to share the goal of non-smoking together. At first it seemed to be really easy, but I have found out other wise. To undo what I have done for 30 years is truly a battle, but it will be a battle I will win in the end. Thanks to every one at this site. Cuddles

I am done slapping myself around. I am climping back out of the hole and starting back up the mountain. I will just have to hold on tighter when an avalance breaks loose and tries to takes me down. This back sliding is easy, but getting old. Well I am dusting myself off and I am back on my journey of being a non-smoker. Being a non-smoker takes a lot of determination, self control, guts and support. I will not give up, I will win this battle. The sooner the better.
