I have a daughter too but she is only 3

wait til she punches holes in every pack of a new carton, soaking them in water, and putting them in the freezer. My daughter probably saved my life with her request = "just stop smoking."

I am so glad now - as much as I smoked, I'd have been a goner decades ago.

Take care of that daughter = most important thing in a dad's life.

Ours is still taking good care of us. Couldn't make it thru the week without her.

Took about a year to feel like I had truly whipped it.


That's about how long before I forgot totally about it.

Then one day a group of guys from work decided to go bowling and invited me to go - I had not been to a bowling ally since my days at LSU in the late 50s.

The first time I let go of the ball, I nearly ripped the left pocket off my shirt frantically grappling for the cigarette pack.

LOL - I had never given it a second thought in well over 2 years.

You will forever, on occasion, crave nicotine but can hate cigarettes and snuff. For me, I buy Walgreen’s brand gum and have since 2012. $75 gets me about a month’s supply so it is far more economical to buy the gum. I like to keep a Vuse on hand for times when I drink or eat because chewing gum can be inconvenient at these times. I use my Vuse like crazy while golfing

Costco Kirkland brand if you have one near you. 300 pieces and it's regularly on sale for $40. It is right now actually.

Cold turkey. Was a heavy smoker and tired of coughing. At 5-7 a day are you really a smoker?
