Day #30!

Well here is is folks the big 30 days without a smoke. I hate to say it but it hasn't been as hard as some may lead you to believe. As least for me it hasn't been. Even with a smoker in the house. Yes, I've had the cravings where in certain situations it just feels like something is missing...you know the one.

Seeing as it's been 30 days I've been toying with the idea of "Cigars", yes I said it fellow EX-smokers, CIGARS. I used to smoke cigars before I smoked cigarettes. And I'm not talking cheap ones, the really good ones from a Tobacconist not from the local 7-11 and certainly not from any liquor store. I enjoy the aroma, the whole process of clipping and lighting the cigar. For me smoking a cigar (and it's been years) has to have the right place and time. Enough time to enjoy it, sit back in a nice summer breeze in the early evening after a good meal, with a good cigar in one hand and a beer or nice liquor in the other. I've got a little vacation time away from my troubles (you know who you are) next month, so maybe a little time to relax and enjoy one with friends.

I can hear the moans and groans now...but cigars have never been a habit, hell I can't afford them! And yes I have pondered if I go to smoking a cigar every once in a while (month or two) will lead me back to cigarettes...it's a chance and a choice I'll have to consider if it ever comes to that. I think the hard part will be not to inhale...YUCH!!!
