Drawing a blank

I am pleased to say the 'angry' me was in hibernation today and will hopefully stay there for some time. I was laughing and making jokes like usual. I am amazed and fascinated at the way the brain reacts to the lack of nicotine. I have noticed how forgetful I have been over the past 6 days, to the point where I am interrogating the dog as to if I have fed it that night. It always ends up being fed ( maybe twice, actually quite possibly twice) as she always seems to look so innocent. With the memory loss, I am talking a complete blank, nothing, nada, zilch. In my job, this is not kosher at all. So the past 6 days seen me frantically clean, bake, walk, whinge, be frustrated and angry and now forgetful. Each one is slowly dissipating and I'm a bit curious as to what will happen next. Day 6 down ( or is it 7?? Hmmm, I can remember....) Just joking:)

Just about to have my last cigarette before my quit day tomorrow. Feeling a little anxious although I have been planning this for quite a while. I gave up a number of years ago for approx 18months. I used Champix last time so I thought I'd give it a go again. My last experience was that on my stop date the thought of having a cig made me I'll. I'm hoping the same happens tomorrow. My only reservation about giving up again was the amount of weight I gained the last time. I'm hoping that being in a training regime will reduce this gain this time.
