Tues it is. Thanks littlek. I really should have expected this.
Well, no, if you'd have expected it, you wouldn't have been being your usual optomistic(how do ya spell that?) self.

Thanks, I'll give that a try. Jeeez!!! I quit smoking. Isn't that enough?
Thanks gus!
You quit smoking!!!! You did??? How did I miss this news? That's fantastic Gezzy!
Thanks littlek. I kept it a secret until I got through the worst part, since I didn't even want to think about it, but I'm through the worst of it and am never going back. This is the first time in 30 years that I quit and it'll be the last.
Good resolve - how long has it been?
not just 'only' a week - a whole week! I dunno if I think you're past the hardest part, though, have to be honest. I think the 2nd week can be pretty rough too. But, it's only one more week and you can do anything for one week right (you just did)?
That's true. I have my tough days like today, but then other days are easier. I think today was really tough because I was obviously stressed. The first 3 days were the very worst for me, but it's gotten easier every day since then. Well, except for today. I am sick of those smokes controlling my life and draining my cash, so I don't ever see myself going back. This has been a tough week and I'd be a fool to go back now. My mom also quit the same day as I did, so we are eachothers rock.
I am noticing things like I don't have that ashtray taste in my mouth anymore and when I wash my hair, it actually smells good all day instead of ending up smelling like smoke. Since I have very long hair, I keep grabbing my hair and smelling it, lol.
Hey, 'tana!
Yer hair smells good!
Thank ye Beth. I can't stop smellin it :-D
Called my lawyers office today and he tells me that the only way I can enforce this is by filing contempt and going back down there to court, so it looks like it'll be awhile. I also tried calling the DOR, but there was over an hour wait to talk to someone, so I'll try back again tomorrow. I also tried calling one of the canadian #'s I have, but got no answer. will make more calls tomorrow and won't stop until I have nowhere left to call.
Oh well, I just have to keep in mind that things could be worse. We have our health and I'll be starting work full time in May, so things will get easier. I'm very good at stretching a dollar, so that's just what I'll have to do until I'm working and am able to go down there and string him up. If it does come down to me having to go back down, I'll be getting him for my traveling expenses for sure.
<sigh> What a pain in the ass.
And, on to more positive things - I bet your son is so proud of you and his grandma about your quitting smoking! You sound like it's going to stick.
Yes, One big huge pain in the ass, but I promised myself that this man is no longer going to control me anymore. I'm tired of being angry and since I can manage from here to when I start working, I am going to enjoy my life.
Yeah, my son is extremely proud of both of us for quitting and you bet it's going to stick. It's been 12 days and it's getting easier every day. I'm never going back to those damn things. When I start working, the money I use to spend on smokes will be buying me a new car ;-)
