Decision made...

After thinking about quitting for the longest time I have finally set a quit date 11/4/14. This date is not significant for any reason and that's why I picked it, so that my quit date won't be shared with a birthday, anniversary etc. My plan is to really cut down over the next week, before going cold turkey on Monday.I have tried before and found the first four days are the hardest. I am trying to talk my son into quitting with me, we both have terrible coughs and the flu at the moment. I have been off work for a week and am not getting any better so have docs at 4. I will discuss with him about my plan today and hopefully things will go smoothly. My main reason for quitting is my health, struggling with stairs at work. Also financial, I could save 5,500 every year.....that's incredible. Thirdly, my kids, there dad isn't in the picture so I have to stick around!I will be 47 soon, hope I haven't left it too late.
