Sing to the tune of an Army cadence)

I quit, I quit, I really quit,

Cigarettes, cigarettes have got to go, 

They ruled my life ’til I said no. 

I’m done, I’m done, I’m really done,

Smok’n and chok’n just ain’t no fun. 

1000 days, 1000 nights, I quit, I quit, I really quit.

Big tobacco is mad, so mad  at me, 

Where’s the money they got  from me?

I’m done, I’m done, I’m really done,

I’m keep’n my money and I have won. 

1000 days, 1000 nights, I quit, I quit, I really quit.

Never gonna smoke, it’s not for me

You just watch and you will see. 

I’m done, I’m done, I’m really done.

You come near me and I will run.     

Well - that's my attempt at a quit poem - 1000 days quit, I never thought I could do it.  My daily routine and  life now is so different. The very first thing I would do in the morning is go outside (rain or shine) and smoke a cigarette.  Now, I take some vitamins, meditate by music and I'm ready for my day. 

No longer do I spend 20 minutes of every day smoking a cigarette.  No longer do I spend $11.00 a day on cigarettes and no longer am I controlled by big tobacco -

Still hate you cigarettes!!!!

1000 days, 1000 nights, I quit, I quit, I really quit

Quitting smoking is the very best thing I have every done for myself. I am proud and amazed that I could quit. I also realize I need to protect my quit and put my quit before anything else. I retired from 30 years in public service and couldn't wait for retirement. Then, my lovely husband created a new business which is fun and busy and so much for retirement. Grew up in Vermont now in Asheville having fun and I am warm. Quit smoking June 2017 - cold turkey.
