Painting & Smoking

So we painted the living room and kitchen. The living room looks aweful. Some people like it but I sure don't. I'll repaint it soon.

I'm trying to quit smoking once again. It's strange how so many non-smokers take it so lightly. They somehow relate it to going on a diet or starting to floss daily. They just don't understand, and I hope they never do. Think about something that makes you nervous; flying, meeting with your boss, going on a first date maybe. Now try living with that feeling every minute of the day. The rest of your thoughts and emotions are skewed. Add to that the constant feeling that you've forgotten something. Welcome to my world for the next few weeks. I have some help this time. I'm using the Nicoderm patch. Last time I quit cold-turkey and was ill from the physical withdrawl. I don't want to go through that again.
