14 days to quit

So, here I am 14 days away from my quit date and I have experienced two emotions that I don't often feel anymore, fear and excitement.

Or is that excitement and fear? I guess it just all depends on if my glass is going to half full or half empty today. Right?

Yesterday I realized that I had opened a pack of cigarettes the day before at 6 a.m and had smoked the last one out of that pack yesterday at noon. Gosh, I was amazed and bewildered at the same time.. I started looking around to see if I had maybe opened another pack of cigarettes and had been smoking out of the both of them. I have done that before A LOT of times, I couldn't find a cigarette when I wanted one, so I thought the hell with it and just opened another pack. But I had only bought three packs on my last run to the tabacco place, so I know it was true..

Tracking my cigarettes has been ESSENTIAL in this quest I am on. That part alone has really opened my eyes in my addiction. Because, eh, I'm no addict.. Right???

Wrong. I am probably the biggest addict I know.

I am 14days away from the start of a new, tobacco free life..

Here is one of my biggest problems on this quest.. Last night I got everything together, ash trays, lighters etc., and I'm all like, I don't want to throw away all those lighters... What a WASTE.. I had NO idea I had that much money!!

Still I love this new quest and am looking forward to the time I officially start this quest. I have had so much encouragement from this site..

Have I told any of you how much I love you???

There are so many I could already tag and this is only day three of my count down of starting this quest of being... a quitter..

Wow, I don't think I have ever said that before with such excitement!!
