Went to Lowe's....got me some plants....went home and planted them. Mexican Heather is one of my favorite plants. My grandmother grew tons of it and used to send me home with some in pots. So, just for that, I had to get some. After all that (which I know doesn't sound like much) I collapsed. This broken tailbone I have had since I was a kid is really paining me lately. ARGH!
I cleaned the patio, hosed the brick, planted my plants and had a smoke.
Oh yea...smokes. I'm quitting. I made a promise to my daughter that if we got the house (which we didn't) I'd quit. Later she asked, "Mom, does that mean you're not going to quit smoking?"
GUILT TRIP
So yes, ladies and gentlemen, I shall quit. I have about 4 packs left in my carton. Then I'm done. I quit drinking like a fish by myself so I figure I should be able to quit smoking the same way.
My husband looked very surprised. I just told him tonight. I haven't told anyone, besides the daughter I told originally.
Once you say something outloud - it's out there. You can't delete it forever and pretend it was never said. So there. I said it.
I will quit smoking.
