Day 1 Again

Well, it's the first week of the New Year, time to start it off right. I am doing the patch, while my husband is stuck cold turkey, bless his heart. I am hoping that this will be the time I get to quit for good. I was talking with a friend last night about triggers and mornings are one for me, when I smoke the most cigarettes. Why? I'm not sure. It's an ADD thing, I think. It takes me a while to wake up and oddly enough, I know the cigarettes don't help but somehow they seem to kick my brain in gear quicker..or whatever. My only other real trigger is stress, plain and simple. The first cigarettes I ever had were under duress, so I don't know. And this really sucks because there's just a lot of stress in my life right now. But, hey, if I can do it under extreme stress, that just makes victory all the more sweeter, eh? I do plan to make out a schedule and make sure every minute of every day is filled so I don't have to stop and think about what to do next...I already have it planned. Deep breath....and I've only had 2 through the morning and my daughter lost her coat...
