Kudos to all of you who are trying to quit smoking cigs! It's really tough and I found after I quit that I will still crave a smoke esp. in certain situations, i.e. when everyone around me is smoking. I only cave about 3 times a year (usually at parties.... like on New Years Eve, Reunions and so forth when I've drank more than I should - am nervous and am just weak!) Luckily the law changed here in Ohio so bars are now smoke free. That's good in the long run. Some friends are pretty unhappy with this change - but they know it's for everyone's health, not just theirs.

My hub is trying to quit smoking now and he's having a very very hard time with it. He smokes weed though. I find that the busier he is, the happier he is. He's SO grouchy though!!! Geesh! I can't believe how angry he gets at small things!

Any tips other than the one where you chew the gum or toothpicks?
