Description

I'm 50 years old, with 2 "kids" 18 and 20. Happily married for 21 years. Two dogs a lab and a beagle. I tired smoking at 15 regular smoker by 18, 30 years or so at a pack a day. Have been sick a few times with broncitits, pneumia , ect. Recently I had a virus that was major had over a month, breathing and cough was very bad. I see my doc in 3 months I hope its nothing permenant. Smoke free since 10/24/2011. Tried to quit many times over the years but feel stonger about commiting too it this time. Husbands a smoker but I think if Im succesful maybe he will quit too.  Can only work on ME, one day at a time. You know what I do sounds silly but I keep repeating in my mind " Just Do it", normally in the past I would tell myself to "Shut the "F" up" but it's been helpful this time. I hope to make lasting friends on this site to help me overcome so maybe I can help someone else.
