I just don’t want to do it now

Today I just don’t want to not smoke.  I’ve looked over my list of reasons.  I’m using my quit kit.  I know I will feel better when I have my forever quit.  I think of my family, my support system, the money saved, my heart rate and O2 being better and I just don’t care.  None of those things matter today.  I know there are people here who are strong and have made this journey and continue to make the commitment.  I admire you/them.  I think I am missing my friend (cigs) even though I know they were really not a friend.  I’m reaching out to other people - both here and I the real world, yet I can’t seem to connect.  I haven’t smoked today.  I’ve pledged not to smoke today.  Please pray for strength for me.

My avatar shows me eating honey my grandson’s bees make. I’m 75 year (someone told me I’m only 71 - someone can do the math born 11/08/1952) old with 60 year smoking habit. Grandmother to 14 amazing humans and soon to be a great grandmother. Six wonderful children who deserve to have a mom who doesn’t smoke and stays as healthy as possible for as long as possible. I’ve lived urban, suburban and rural places. Worked at many jobs from plastic injection molding and waiting tables to teaching and journal editing. Retired, divorced, long Covid. Looking for what the next universe has in store for me next.
