Why, Oh, Why.....................

Why, Oh, Why.....................
Why did i ever start smoking??

Since my husband and I stopped smoking, we have been going through the house cleaning the nicotine off of everything we see and can spray down with 409, bleach, lysol, or dawn.

Today, we tackled our fans that we use in the house. That was a really yucky job. I guess you really never realize just how that crap builds up and on everything until you stop smoking and try to clean stuff up so you will stop smelling it. I know i didn't.

I never really thought my house stunk so much when i smoked. We always opened the windows and "aired" out the house when it wasn't too hot or cool outside, so I didn't think it smelled so bad. Now, it seems like i just can't buy enough cleaning supplies and air fresheners.

I really am proud of my husband and myself for stopping. It really hasn't been as bad of an ordeal as i thought it would be at first. There has been quite a few bad assed attitudes flying around now and then, but, neither one of us tried to actually kill the other. lol. Even though it has been almost 2 weeks since we have had a smoke, I am still having some really strong urges to smoke one. But, I don't give in. I fight it with all that I have in me to fight with.

Thanks to all the friends who have been and are still being very supportive of us.

    Quoting  :
awww tyvm cozy. and i am sure that soon, you will be able to walk away from them. it is really hard to do when you have someone still smoking around you when you are trying to quit. bib and i hung a sign up on our door that says "NO SMOKING". lol. liked to have thrown my dad for a loop i think, lol. but his mom and dad have said that they are really proud of us too.

as for the smell, i think that is why i am still having these strong urges..... i will be so glad when they quit and leave me the hell alone!! lol,.

 Yes i'm proud of us too, but we also need to clean these walls good. They look really bad lol. I don't think we'll ever get it all out unless we replace the wall board and carpets. A little at a time and we can get that done though.
