Years ago I quit smoking cold turkey. I kept myself busy painting mother's garage and wall papering her kitchen. I seemed to "NOT" have had any problems with quiting and I felt sooooooooo good.. Food even tasted good again. I swore I would never smoke again. I was smoke free for a good three years...

Had a giant fight with my then hubby and lit up a cigarette out of pure anger. Well, that one time got me hooked again.. I've tried off and on quitting again, but have not been successful.

I hate/love smoking. I hate the smell, the messy ashes that fall when I miss the ash tray and I hate that cigarettes have such a control over my life...

This is a great idea "a stop smoking" thread. Maybe we ALL can be smoke free.
