The mind is willing...

I have to confess, I'm weak.  The other day was supposed to be my big stop smoking day.  I could lie and tell you all that it's just going wonderful, that I put down the cigarettes and have lost four pounds, have peace of mind and spirit and have written twenty of the best pages of my life on my newest project.

But, I'm not  going to lie.   I did pretty well the first day until noon when I ate everything that wasn't moving in my kitchen.  I would have rolled myself back to my computer chair but I was so restless I couldn't think.  So.....I had a cigarette and decided that for now three cigarettes a day is okay.  I know, I know, I'm playing games with myself, but I keep thinking if I could just cut down to three a day then it should be fairly easy to kick those last three to the curb.

On a happier note, I got a new three-book contract from Harlequin Intrigue yesterday and I'm thrilled.   It's going to be a series and I'm looking forward to delving into them.

Well, that's it from me now, the weak of flesh, weak of spirit writer who is GOING to quit smoking altogether...just now today.

Carla
