So. I finally figured out what to use a tiny bit of my Christmas gift card on other than the 3 shirts and 3 pairs of pants that I got. I went to a store that my friend suggested and got a vape machine. Nothing like I expected as I haven’t vaped in years.
So I couldn’t even figure out how to turn it on and off, I had to ask my friend. $44 got me a machine and 2 cartridges. I got menthol because that’s what I smoked, and strawberry because it actually tasted pretty good (they let me try all the flavors at the store). A cartridge is supposed to last a week so that’s good too.
They had all different colors but I chose black so it doesn’t stand out so much. They even make stickers for it! I tried it and it works well. I got the highest nicotine level which is only 6mg (a Camel cigarette has about 26 according to google). I will not smoke. I do not want to stink like cigarettes ever again. Let’s see how this goes!
I started thinking about this About Me part of my blog. I'm going to expand it just a little from the 3 words I had before.
I am a single mom. I love my son. We have been alone since he was 6 months old. He really is my sun, moon, and stars. I am very proud of him.
I am an entrepreneur. I started my driving business 2 years ago. I don't want to work for a "boss" ever again. I always tell people they can do it too. In what I do, there is no competition because there are plenty of people that need rides (and maybe that would help get some of these bad drivers off the roads!). I work hard and have fun on my own time doing what I like to do.
I really am a Netflix addict. When I am not working or doing something with my son, I am watching Netflix. There are so many shows that I've never re-watched anything either. I will watch anything and make my own opinion.
I am opinionated. This blog is really just my opinions and my life. People don't have to agree with me all the time. I welcome discussions and other people's opinion whether they agree or not. I'm not petty, I'm not going to block anyone for not sharing my opinion, why do people freak out these days when someone doesn't share their opinion? Who cares?!? There is a reason we all are different.
There's a lot more about me but you'll have to read the blog to find out!

The friend of mine switched to this and he said – cigarettes never again. After party, he felt terrible because of cigarettes smoked in the previous night, but this one – no problem. Also, can smoke inside.
Very nice! I’ve gotten to the point that I can’t stand the smell of smoke! My hubby still smokes and when he comes in, he can’t come near me for a while because I can’t stand it! 😂
It took me some time.. especially with having someone around who smokes. I craved and it was hard for me to say no. During the first two weeks… I had a total of five cigarettes. Each one tasted worse and worse. The last one I couldn’t even finish! I haven’t touched one since. I still have times when I would like one, or I feel that I need one… but I just remember how bad they taste to me now and how well I am doing now and it keeps me on track. You will get there!
Oh yes! I’ve tried the patch, the gum, cold turkey, and this has been the easiest by far! Not to say that it has been easy, but it’s still better than the other times I’ve tried to quit.

I appreciate the support. I don’t know anyone that smokes so hopefully this will go easier than the cold turkey was!
