I started again in December of last year.I thought I told you that.Not proud, but it's one of my coping mechanisms here. Will quit again when I go home.I know mom quit, so it would be bad if I didn't give it up too.

i must have missed this entry! laughing_tree January 31 2007, 14:28:36 UTC
i just found it today! and one of my favourite books! (i have, at one time, owned like 4 second-hand copies of it...i think i'm down to two)...
i am going to be quitting again in about a week but i must say i go through moments when i see it as a sacred thing...(cough cough)
i try to give thanks a few times a day for the tobacco that i am given but i do think we should be thankful for the fire as well! (fire dancers...ya baby!) (i'm afraid this isn't going to help me in my attempts to quit...hehehe)
hope you are well and sending you hugs!
