Changing Bad Habits

76 cigarettes not smoke. Wow.  Good for me.

I don’t feel too bad.  Wouldn’t say no if someone gave me a free cigarette and promised it wasn’t bad for my health.  But that’s not going to happen.

At the moment, I still miss smoking.  I miss the excuse to leave my desk several times a day.  I miss that first hit of nicotine in the morning.  I miss that last hit at night.  I just miss it.

I know, intellectually, that at this point, the need for nicotine is pyschological.  After 3 days, the studies show, the physical addiction is gone.  So now its all in my head.

Juicy Fruit is my best friend.  I am allergic to most artificial sweetners, or at least I react badly to them, so I have to chew gum with sugar.  Which is really hard to find these days!  And Juicy Fruit and coffee? Bad taste combo!

So I’ll soldier on.  Not smoking.  Simon says I haven’t been all that cranky.  Work doesn’t agree!

Posted in daily, me.
