I expect a party here on mobileread when the month is up
I eat boogers.

Not really. To be honest with ya this forum has been keeping my hands busy and mind off of the habit. Hard to think about smoking when you are in 15 different conversations at the same time.

I am so pleased to see that you are still hanging in there. Maybe I should try giving up and using the forum rather than QUIT Line. No, no not quite yet - but one day.

And yes, the Nicotin withdrawal fades rather quickly - it's the habit that is a bitch to kick.

I'm working on it. Biggest problem / obstacle (apart from me being lazy ) is hubby who just doesn't want to give up. Which means that I have temptation all around the house, and I am but a weak female

If you believe it, so it will be.

Not to proselytize, but you are exactly as strong (or weak) as you want to be. HT and I just pretty much bulldozed through it (with support of course), hundreds of others do it every day.

Actually, your biggest problem might not be quitting but realizing what your house smells like once you've actually quit, if your husband continues.

Sorry - I should have put the somewhat closer to 'weak'. I'm probably anything but. Although I do take advantage of l'Oreal and the 'dumb blonde' act. Men just fall for it and it makes everything so much more funny

Weirdly enough - our house doesn't smell. And that's according to non-smoking friends who come to us the first time and don't know that we smoke inside. Might have to do with the climate we live in and that the doors and windows are open pretty much 365 days.

The bigger problem once I give up and he doesn't will be the experience of licking an ashtray everytime I kiss him (maybe I should give that up too)

No, I am being honest. Despite all the negatives from smoking I am just not ready. And yes, all the arguments are such that I should. But : just not ready yet. And if I go at it halfhearted it just isn't going to work. Tried it and failed. So I just hang in there and smoke as little as I can. I have afterall already reduced my habit from a pack / day to 6 smokes. It's a start
