Monday Morning....

So, this past weekend was ok. I had to work on saturday and while i didnt actually do much while i was onsite, it felt like i was contributing. As a result of having to work, i went to bed rather early friday night. My usual... getting drunker than a skunk didnt really happen. I did that on saturday night instead. Yesterday, my mom came over the house for a few hours. She did laundry and we played some cards while we waited for it to get done. This morning, i actually woke up with my alarm. It went off at 6:00am and i hit the snooze... 6:30 though... i woke up and got out of bed, took a shower, warmed up my car, and came to work. I stopped for a coffee on the way in.

Quitting smoking has been harder than expected. I am happy to say that i have officially matured out and quit gambling though. Quitting smoking is the next item on the list of items to quit doing. Drinking, while it has increased over the last few months... i feel will be easier than quitting smoking. Smoking and drinking kind of go hand in hand but i see smoking as the worse offense. Mainly due to the amount of money it costs every week and also due to the long term effects on my health. I've been smoking for the better part of 13 years now... so if i want to reverse the damage done, i need to quit sooner than later. Honestly i think its time to quit.. But something keeps pulling me back into it. I think its because my identity has been linked to smoking for so long, that i dont know what i would do once i quit smoking.

One idea... is to take ten dollars a day (roughly what i spend on cigarettes) and put it aside in a savings account or in a bank at the house.
