Your hug felt especially good, Chris! Thanks.

If my husband was making an even half hearted attempt at quitting I
wouldn't be here ranting and bitching. I consider myself very
fortunate that my first quit stuck, but I know that's not the case for
so many people.

I would be thrilled beyond words to hear him say, "I'm going to try."
Until then he can continue to stand outside in all kinds of weather to
inhale his poison.

Thanks, Summer C! I'll be looking for your sharp, pointy toed shoes!
This all *will* work out, it can't do anything else. I just want it
to work out so that this become an entirely smoke free home. The
sooner the better. :-)

this is the problem ,,,,,,,,,,,,, those that are too close can't get a good
enough swing to kick. sometimes it has to be those that are a little bit
further away cus they can take a run up.
