In my Quit Smoking program with Chantix, (which is the least they can do considering the cost of the stuff!) it is the day to throw away all your cigarettes, ashtrays, lighters and any other paraphernalia you may have around your home, office and car. I had bought 5 packs the day before I quit smoking so I have 4+ packs I ‘m giving away. This exercise freaked me out a little when I first read it because I have been holding an unlit cigarette or only lighting one and not puffing on it. But that is dangerous.

I didn’t have any cigarettes yesterday. I had 3 the day before and one the day before that. My big quit begins tomorrow. This past week has been leading up to it and I think I’ve got a pretty good foundation on which to build a smoke free life.

Today I bought more bubble gum and a package of dum dum suckers and a bag of tootsie roll pop suckers and a tin of cinnamon mints. For tomorrow, I’m going to buy……  kidding!

I have been SO IRRITABLE today but I’m coming around.
