Smoke Free



I stopped smoking today. As a matter of fact it's been 3 hours since my last cigarette.  I tried to quit on Wednesday, but gave in to the craving.  Tonight, even though it is only 7:21PM I have put on my jammies, tied up my hair, and brushed my teeth.  It would take a great deal of effort to go to the store now.  If I can make it through the night, I should be able to hold out until tomorrow morning.
That's the real test, coffee without a cigarette. I hope I can keep it together.  I really don't want to take another pill.  I've tried the patch, the lozenges, they all threw me into fits.
The only other time I quit cold turkey was after my car accident.  I was in the hospital for 10 days and in rehab for 10 days. I didn't have much choice but to quit.  Besides, I was on some very fine pain killers, so I didn't care.
I wonder how long this get healthy kick will last.  I hope I can keep it up, because I really do want to change my outside.  I've already been working on the inside, and that seems to be going well.  So, there you have it.  I have put it out there in the universe.  I am going smoke free,  I want white teeth, fresh breathe, and no stains on my fingers.  My hair will smell better, and I won't have to drive with all the windows open to smoke in the car. Maybe I can get back some stamina too.  
Good luck to me and may God have mercy upon me.
Peace, Love, Joy
