February 24th
February 24th is my officlal quit date. What is that you ask? February 24th is the day I quit smoking. I have started taking Chantix, and last time it worked like a charm. (for about 3 months) This is something I’ve been talking about for a long time now, and now, more than ever there is reason to quit.
Why am I writing about it here? Because, there is some sort of accountability here. I fully expect anyone who reads this to kick me in my butt after the 24th, if they see me smoking a cigarette. (You won’t, but I expect it)
Also, I would really appreciate prayers. Lots of them. In my life, I have quit using Meth and Cocaine, cold turkey. I have quit drinking, without any supplement, (And only a few relapses.) But above all of that, cigarettes is by far the hardest thing to quit. So any prayers are more than welcome.
So.. there you have it, one week from today I will be smoke free. Praise God.

So, now that you're “sweeping the demons out of the house,” what are you going to fill the house/behavior with so it doesn't come back 7 fold?

Good for you bro!
I will pray for you and for those near you.
I know when I quit some 8 years ago, just as many prayers were needed for my wife and coworkers. I was a bear. GRrrrr.
You can do it!
