A new beginning

On Monday I woke up and decided that I was not going to be a smoker anymore.

It is Tuesday and I have not smoked a cigarette yet.

I am really proud and happy that I am finally doing this. I have wanted this for so long but have always made excuses.

Today I signed up for a marathon with my friend Chris and his best friend Kara and her boyfriend. It's on January 21st and only a 5k. Only. Hah. I am not a runner. I am a walker but have been training myself lately and have started jogging. I went tonight for a 5k walk/jog. My stamina is getting better when I jog and will only get better now that I am not smoking.

The most difficult thing for me right now is living with two smokers. Jeremy is having his birthday party on Friday and I know it will be hard for me to escape being surrounded by alcohol and cigarettes. I just need to limit my alcohol and go in my room and chew some gum when I get the craving.

Anyway here are some photos.
