first day

I walked in the chemist to get my prescription today, I stop and looked at the quit smoking ads pick up patch, but I put them back cause I didnt think I was ready! I got my prescription and as I walked past the patches again ,I stopped icked up one and went to pay. I had my last cigarette on the way home as soon as I got without even thinking about it I put on a patch and havent had a smoke since 9:30 this morning! Ive thought about giving up so many times but never tried,today I took the first step. Im doing this for my self and a special friend who needs to give up she needs surgery at the end of the year to cut half of her stomach so she can start loosing weight. My main inspiration is my 4 kids I want to be here around them for a very long time.

I guess I knew its time.
