I had smoked for nearly 35 years and in that time, for the last nearly 7 years, my husband would buy me a carton of cigarettes nearly every week.

When I started vaping, I told my husband not to buy me anymore cigarettes, because I liked vaping better. I never went above 6mg of nicotine because I wanted to get off the nicotine habit. My husband agreed and thought it would be more sensible to actually vape instead of having to buy me a carton of cigarettes every week.

The first day that we both started vaping, was when I told him the day that I run out of cigarettes, is the day that I quit smoking them.

We started vaping on June 11th, of this year and then about 8 days later, I ran out of cigarettes. That was on June 19th of this year.

It has been officially 7 weeks now, since I've had that last cigarette. In just over 2 weeks from now, I will have quit smoking for good, which will be August 19th.

But the day that we started vaping, the salesperson at the vape shop that we went to says to me, "You need to quit smoking!"

When we left the shop that day, I told my husband that the salesperson didn't have to tell me what I already knew. LOL Yes, we laughed it off, though.

Now look at me, I'm smoke free, but I'm vaping. But I'm not vaping as much as my husband is.

He has gotten addicted to it over the past 8 weeks. But we both started off using the nicotine from the e-liquids. But then within the last 2 weeks, I don't let my husband get the nicotine in the e-liquids, because I don't want to have anything to do with the nicotine.

I told my husband that and we stopped getting the nicotine e-liquids. Once I run out of all the e-liquids that have the nicotine in them, it's all downhill from there. There won't be any of the e-liquids that we have now, which will be good for me, as addicted to the nicotine in cigarettes as I was in the past.

I'm starting to feel better in some ways, but I have a long way to go to get to where I really want to get to, in my goals.

My husband has been spending a lot of money in the past 2 months for the mods and the equipment that goes with them.

He now has 4 different mods and I have 3 different mods. The ones I have, my husband says are really cool looking and feel cool when he holds it in his hands.

But the thing is that he is vaping, every time I turn around, and with me, I space the vaping out. That's the difference between how we both vape now.

The way that I vape will eventually help me get off the vaping totally, hopefully within the next couple of months and then I'll be totally smoke free and nicotine free.

I don't want my habits to last forever.
