Huh!

This giving up smoking lark isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. OK, so I can breathe more easily when I am swimming, my clothes and hair don’t smell of fags etc etc. But what do I do when I need to get away from my desk at work? I liked having a fag after my meals and I was used to concentrating on driving and smoking at the same time. Suddenly everything has become a trigger… some people only have one or two things that remind them of smoking, but I have realised that EVERYTHING I do reminds me of having a fag. I must have been even more of a chain smoker than I thought!

Sheesh… it had better be worth it!

    If only you were male. I could share my "smoking causes impotence" motivational talk 😀

    Tis true you were a chain smoker but think of all the benefits! You just need to find something else that you can be very good at!!? 😉

    I remember the feeling… the minute I decided to stop it was all I wanted to do.

    Believe me, the view from the other side really IS better. So is the smell… and the air.

    Tough it out Auntie… You can do this!

    Yup, it’s worth it. I’m impressed at your determination, auntie D. Besides, being into mathematics, you can always convert your smoking breaks into "send a text message to make sure he’s getting his calculations right" breaks – as long as you can afford the mobile bill 😉
