First task of 2010...

So for my new years resolution I vowed I would first and foremost quit smoking. I am more than half way through day 6. I have tried this a few times, so I know the pattern I go through. The first three days are the worst for me. For the first three days it is best if I avoid people, specially people who smoke ( or people I want to keep as friends). Most people say the first day is the hardest. This is not true for me, I can make it past the cravings if I stay busy. So once the nicotine is out of my system it's the mental stuff that gets to me. I find myself looking to grab a smoke after I finish a meal. Or just while I am sitting at my computer playing WoW. I catch myself searching for them in a split second, then I remember that I haven't had a ashtray or a cigg in the house for 6 days now. I shake my head at myself for being so silly and forgetting, but it's out of a 17 yr habit that I keep reaching for something that isn't here. Maybe I can blog about this journey and then add others, as I have a long list of things I want to accomplish this year.
