Cigarette money.....

[MichelleDoesntSmoke]

Hey my ticker says I've saved $9 and guess what...its right! I have $10 actually, in my wallet, right now. I'm going to squirrel half of it away. Once my paychecks start coming in (new job) I'll make it a habit of putting everything I would normally spend on cigs away for a special treat. For now, $5 is enough to make me happy.

 

And I'm leaving my money home tomorrow so I'm not as tempted as I was today to buy some!

Hey Michelle xox

 

I started thinking that, but my "compensation" was spending it whenever I wanted something!!! it's like a 'reward' every day or each time I see something that I used to think "can't afford it"... now I can! and I DO!!

 

Been quit 17 weeks tomorrrow (had to check my calendar as I forget) but only started "saving" a couple of P days ago... and only $50... it's adding up and I'm still "splashing" on what I WANT!!! for ME, it's what's helped me stay quit with joy!!!

 

Do I still crave? you bet! but it's not for long, and I keep remembering THE MONEY.... THE CIGARETTE MONEY!!! LOL!!!

and how it's now MINE!!!!!

Guess what I'm getting at is "live for today!!!!"... xox

Good idea - soon you will be rich! Having that extra money makes a real difference, and you will wonder how you ever could afford to smoke to begin with!

I get angry now....when I think of how much of my hard earned cash.....I have parted with.....

Treats are very important....spoil yourself.....

Much better than making those greedy tobacco companies rich...

Yes!! Wahoo!!! I woke up once in the middle of the night and didnt think of cigs till Id been up a while (HUGE accomplishment) Went back to sleep and when I woke up for good they WERE the first thing I thought of. But I shook it off faster than I have been able to do so far. Thats progress! I do believe its gonna be a good day!

 

How is everyone this morning?
