1 Ounce

I am in the midst of my trial at reducing my pipe smoking to one ounce of tobacco a week.  I started on Friday.   it has been like I thought so far.  I  am feeling somewhat nervous I will run out before Friday and then fail by reaching for next week's ounce.  

But, I am also (I think) learning to do without my pipe more often.  It is a difficult challenge, but I am going to try to persevere.  My hope is that I will be able to "unlearn" the habit in this way.  

I do not feel like myself at times  though.  I am less animated, and less content.  But, hopefully I am learning.

I appreciate all forms of comments on my writings. I find that I miss the sponteneity of coming to read them here when they were unmoderated. I believe I wrote less due to the moderation. I have decided to adopt limited moderation. Hopefully the prior problems with unfettered comments will not arise again. Please feel free to comment as you wish about the essays I write. I will maintain those comments that offer kind-hearted and gentle opinion... be it positive or negative. The opinions of your comments will, of course, need to have relevance to the post as well.
