I quit
smoking on Saturday. We'll see how well this goes. I have smoked since I was 18 years old. Wow - almost 22 years. I have quit several times during that period. Namely everytime I found out I was pregnant. (Just to clarify - Thanks Carrie - I am soooo NOT pregnant this time) As soon as that little plus sign showed up on the stick - the cigarettes went in the garbage. The longest I quit was when pregnant with Reenie and after she was born because I breastfed her for 9 months. So that was about 17-18 months that I did not smoke. Boz had told me he would quit by the time he turned 40. That was a month ago - no sign of him slowing down. He smokes 1.5 - 2 packs a day. I smoke 1/2 a pack a day (or at least I did). Anyway, maybe if I go ahead and quit, he will also. We'll see. In the meantime, I am going to just take it a day at a time and - if need be - an hour at a time.
