So, I have just (and I really mean just) made it to day thirteen, of my quit that started on the 13th in the year 2013 - what could possibly go wrong :eek:

Well done mate - keep going.

How close were you when you say you only 'just' made it?

On day 2 I caved in mentally - went to the shop to buy some smokes and as I walked in realised I hadn't picked up my wallet - by the time I went back to my desk to get my wallet I'd found an extra little reserve of willpower and I didn't go back out.

I think that persuaded me that someone, somewhere was watching over me this time and made me leave that wallet on my desk.

So, it was close, and literally - close but no cigar(ettes)

I walked to the store, but ended up buying my son an ice cream instead :)

Oh, and GREAT news - I passed the cotinine/nicotine test for my job!!!! I got my identification badge! I am now a Registered Nurse: Internal medicine and telemetry! So excited, cannot wait to start!
