No More Smoking in New Diary

I made up my mind tonight that I am going to give up smoking. I had a miserable day. I was so short of breathe this morning I could hardly move around without having breathing problems. I go through this every morning but this morning was pretty awful. I have enough health problems and I do not need to add asthma or COPD to the list. So I am going to be smoke free and I am going to do it cold turkey I did it before and I can do it again.

I used to smoke a pack and a half a day. This was about seven years ago. How I quit smoking was simple. Instead of paying out a hundred or so dollars a month on cigarettes I rented a computer from Rent A Center. Whenever I got the urge to smoke I would get online and go to Open Diary and ramble on and on. Most of the stuff I wrote about never made sense but it kept my mind occupied and my hands busy. Eventually the urge for nicotine passed on. It worked once so I figure I can give it a good try again.

So here goes nothing. I slept in today. I got up around 8:30 tis morning. Like I said I wasn't feeling very well because of breathing problems. I sat at the computer gasping for breath for about a hour sor so. I tried to read. I talked with my gf and then she came up. We had ourselves a cigarette . Yes despite all the problems I was having I still managed to light one up. I must be a complete moron or have some kind of death wish. We talked for a while and then she had to go home to do something. I started reading my book about D Day and the battle of Normandy. Later on she called and said she got a ride from her friend and was going over to Steubenville. She wanted to get some groceries. She wanted to know if I would come along. I said no but didn't give a reason. I read my book while she was gone and managed to get through a couple chapters. She called me and said she was coming home. I went to get a grocery cart and I met them outside. I helped her with her groceries and put the cart away. When I came back I had a couple of tuna salad sandwiches and that went down pretty good. We went t my place and then we talked for a while and after that she wanted to go home for a nap By then I was breathing a bit easier and felt better

Saw her again around 3 pm. I went to her place. We watched Dr. Phil today and we talked again about different things. I brought down supper and gf was kind enough to cook supper.

We went to my place and watched the news and talked. Then she went home around 6. I played chess against the computer and then watched a couple of tv shows on Hulu.

Well that was about what I did for today. I lead a pretty boring life. I will be back tonight when I get the urge to smo0ke.
