Kirk Douglas tells a story about his father quitting smoking. He started carrying one cig arround with him and everytime he had the urge he would pull the cig out look at it and say," Who;s stronger, you or me??- I am stronger." and put it back in his pocket. He said it workded.
Good luck,

Lorna,

I want to join the other girls on the forum offering encouargement to get through quitting smoking.

At my smoking peak in the 70s, I was going through a carton a week before quitting for good in 1979. Now once in a while while going through the checkout at some drugstores, I see the price of a carton is almost $50. I remind myself that besides the health benefits, I have that money to spend on FUN things such as femme clothing, lingerie, jewelry, computer stuff, etc. I also feel that my femme things last longer because I'm not dropping hot ashes on them and depositing gook from the smoke on them. I can also picture my wife not allowing me free rein to borrow any clothing of hers that I want if I smoked because of possible cigarette damage.

This is just one bleached blonde's view.
