Been a bit

Yeah, it's been probably what, a week since I posted here? Yeah, I kinda got behind didn't I.

Anyway, it's been 42 days now, hence the reason for the post. It's 42 man! I've been smoke free for 42 days. Maybe THAT'S the answer. Hmm..

Anyway, I just made one more step down. I'm on Step 3 now...the last step. Patches are pretty small, dosage is smaller. This could be a crazy day. Stress levels are peaking a bit too.

What's happened lately. Well, went to Canada's Wonderland again, this time for the Halloween Haunt. It was pretty cool. Cravings were minimal on the trip up. This is my first long trip without a smoke. Well, not long, but almost 5 hours, so that's long enough. I think I looked at the clock once and said to myself "Hmm, would almost be time to stop for a smoke". That was it. I noticed lots of people smoking in the park even though they are supposed to stay in "designated areas". Oh well, can't police everything.

Then there is the issue of me thinking about getting a car. This has stressed me out quite a bit over the last day. I almost cracked last night, but decided to just let it pass. It took a lot to let it pass, I had to play some of my video game and then go to bed. Was not a fun time. But it too shall pass and things will get better.

This smaller patch may hurt a bit today, but I just have to persevere and get through it...right?

I have been quit for 1 Month, 1 Week, 5 Days, 1 hour and 4 minutes. I have saved approximately $336.34 by not smoking 840 cigarettes. I have saved 2 Days and 22 hours of my life that would have been spent outside smoking. My Quit Date: 9/9/2009 7:00 AM.
