Day 1 - for the last time - No Smoking Day

Hi folks,

Nice to see so many MMQs still doing well. I've been smoking for the past couple of weeks, and decided to do it properly this time round; I went see a stop smoking councellor at my local hospital, and I had my monoxide levels checked, and got some free patches (which I found out - by reading my past notes on quits - was the most effective method of quitting for me; I quit for 1 1/2 years that way).

Sorry for disappearing off the face of the earth, but I'm back now, in control of my life :). My incentives have slightly changed now, as I am becoming very interested in Buddhism and mindfulness. One of the key precepts of Buddhism is avoiding intoxicants. I already have the no alcohol thing sorted, now it's just onto the evil weed.

Well it's 2.45pm here, and I feel quite positive. I'm gonna do some meditation in a bit. Oh and I will be seeing my ladyfriend again soon, which is another incentive (I've put that off, due to smoking).

This is the last time I'm quitting, I've had enough.

Cheers folks,

Love P. x
