About three months ago I purchased an e cigarette kit and attempted to quit smoking. Well…. that really didn’t work out the way I had planned. I did give it a try for a few days but then kind of moved away from it and started smoking just as much as I had been before I tried the product. But I have decided once again to give it a go. I’m going to start back on it when the kids go back to school in a week’s time and see how I make out this time. I am kind of disappointed in myself for not kicking this habit sooner, but as long as I keep trying I guess I’m not a complete failure. And of course, I’ll keep you all updated on my progress.

As you read in my previous post, I’m not in the very best shape right now. So my weekend plans are pretty basic. I will not be doing a whole lot of anything. I am unable to do even the simplest tasks like sweeping my laminate flooring so doing any type of physical activity is out of the question. So I plan on just laying back, taking my meds and trying to get better.

What are your plans for the weekend?

I have been having some serious back pain for the past week and finally last night I sucked it up and went to the doctor. Well I guess my back is a serious mess right now so he gave me a couple of prescriptions to help with the pain and hopefully help me feel better. So for the next week I am pretty much grounded to the house. Because these pills are so powerful, I’m not allowed to drive so I can’t go anywhere unless my husband wants to take me. Oh well, I’d rather be stuck home and pain free than be out running the roads and be in pain.

No I don’t smoke cao cigars or anything like that, but I do smoke cigarettes. I have been a smoker for the past 30 years and I would really love to quit. I have tried several times in the past but haven’t had any success with it so far. But… I keep trying. If I could only find an effective way to quit smoking I would feel better, the family would be happier and I could save some money. Oh well, as long as I keep trying I guess I’m really not failing right??

So far this month has not been a real good one. Except for having mother’s day and birthday celebrations, this month has been pretty bad. Most of the family has been sick and it doesn’t really seem like we can get rid of it. I haven’t been doing a whole lot of posting these days as I’ve been a bit busy taking care of the family. Hopefully all this sickness goes away soon and we can all enjoy the rest of the month.

In less than a week I will be turning 43 and man… do I ever feel it and look it. I have quite a bit of gray hair showing again and the acne on my face is truly a mess. I wish I could find some affordable but effective adult acne treatments to use to get rid of this problem. I did buy a box of hair dye, so the graying problem should be taken care of. I’m really getting tired of only being in my early 40’s but looking like I’m in my early 50’s.

You have all probably been wondering where I’ve been these last few days. Well, I’ve been home sick! I have been so sick this past week there were times when I really wondered if I was going to make it. Now I don’t get sick very often mind you, but boy when I do, it really does throw me for a loop. But… I think the worst if finally over. This morning I woke up and decided that I really have to get my life back on track. I have been doing a little surfing on the Internet looking for chiropractic technologist courses. I am able to sit up at my computer and don’t feel all that bad. So hopefully the worst of this illness is over and life can get back to normal.

So as you seen in my previous post, I have been feeling quite crappy for the past few days. Well I’m here to tell you all that it hasn’t gotten any better. It’s actually gotten worse. Now with the headache I also have serious sinus problems, can’t eat and can’t sleep. It’s really been a dreadful few days. So even though today I’m supposed to write some articles on the best creatine supplement that’s available on the market I really don’t think this is going to get done. It’s a little difficult for me to see right now. Man, I really hope this goes away soon. So I’m going to shut off my computer for a while, go lay down and hopefully feel a bit better when I get up. Maybe then I’ll be able to get some work done.

Wow, I can’t remember the last time my head ached as bad as it has today. I have taken quite a few pills, but they really don’t seem to be working. I think I’m going to have to turn off my computer for a little while and go lay down to try to get rid of this headache. I really don’t want to do that as I do have a few articles on top creatine supplements that I have to write up. But I honestly don’t think at this point I would turn out my best work so it would probably be a waste of time. Maybe later after I get up this headache will have gone away and I can get a little bit of work done.

So have a great day guys and I’ll to talk you all soon.

Well since my husband gave up his alec bradley cigars I have decided to try to quit smoking myself. I have been a smoker for over 30 years and I know this is going to be one heck of a ride. I have tried to quit in the past but have been unsuccessful with my attempts. But this time I think it will be different. This time I think it will be different because this time I really want to accomplish this. So… hopefully soon I will be able to report that I’m smoke free. It’s been a long time coming.
