I Have To Stop

My family and I are going on vacation the end of March. We are flying to San Francisco to visit friends and let our ten year old daughter experience a real vacation. Before we go on March 26th I have to stop smoking! I currently smoke about a pack a day (for you non-smokers that is about 20 cigarettes a day). I need to quit smoking for several reasons. There are obvious health reasons to quit but I am not to concerned with them. The bigger reasons are that the vacation will be much more enjoyable for the entire family if I am not smoking. San Francisco has some very strict no smoking policies, so trying to find a place where I can smoke in San Franscico will be difficult. Quitting before we leave will releive the stress of not being able to smoke while in California.
My absolute deadline for no more smoking is March 26th, the day we leave. I would like to stop before then, but have not chosen a specific date yet.
Here is my plan (it worked when I stopped smoking to go to Hawaii 7 years ago), so I am going to try it again.
1. Cut back to 10 a day for at least 2 weeks
I keep the package from the day before and count out 10 cigarettes, when the package is empty I am done for the day.
2. Keep track of when I smoke write down the times
This lets me know the time of day that I most want a smoke and it also keeps me on track for my 2 to 3 hour time limit between smokes
3. Keep at least 2 hours between smoke breaks
4. Don't smoke while driving (this cuts down on quite a few at the very start, I smoke a lot in my truck)
5. Buy smokes a pack at a time instead of a carton (reduces the temptation to smoke more)
6. Find other things to occupy my time when I am bored

At least this is a start, because to be honest, I really don't want to stop smoking. I enjoy it and it relaxes me. It is a great stress reliever for me. I don't particullarly like the smell of a stale cigarette, but I do like the taste of a lit cigarette. So now the inner fight begins.
I start tomorrow, January 5th, 2011.
Wish me luck
