It's time
Well , it's the end of 2011. I promised that I would quit smoking this year. Started smoking tabacco - thought it would slow me down as it took a good 15 mins to roll a cigarette. But I just got faster and learned to roll them really quickly. Didn't stop me at all. Pathetic really.
I have a five year old and it fills me with shame and desperation that I'm killing myself in front of him. It's time to stop. I will not spend another year with this disgusting habit. I want to be able to run around with him , not cough , not smell awful and not sneak away from him to have a smoke.
I want to find a new way of coping with stress.
Thank you all for sharing your stories - they are an inspiration.
