I give up on this. I pretty much have already stopped and it’s just not been interesting or fun anymore. It was good while it lasted, but when it got to be a chore, screw it, it’s not something I need to put my energy into, not an important goal for me.

I’m not doing well on this goal right now. I’ve been working later in the day most days, not before 2 and I usually don’t get off until 10, so that kind of throws me off. I don’t do as well when I don’t have a reason I HAVE to get up.
I’ve also had a couple of really crazy sleeping days lately, including today. Friday night I ended up going to a party in Olympia with some friends and didn’t end up back home until past 4 am. My friend stayed the night and she didn’t wake up until past 2 pm so I didn’t really get up until then either. So then I couldn’t sleep at ALL on Saturday, worked a nine hour shift on Sunday and then slept in until past noon on Monday. Monday night I had to work an overnight shift (9-5:30 but we didn’t actually get off until 6) and although I tried to just stay up all day, that didn’t work out and I ended up sleeping from around 8 am until 3 pm today. Now it’s 1:30 am and I not sleepy at all.
I’ve got to make some radical changes, all the progress I made before has been lost.
Thank you to all the people who have left kind and encouraging comments!
I’m still doing well, I’ve found it helps to not think of myself as a smoker any more. Every time I’ve wanted a cigarette (like really wanted it) I tell myself “I’m not a smoker, what am I thinking. I don’t do that any more.” It makes a huge difference.
