My husband, Joe stopped smoking about 30 years ago. I was always around cigarette smoke but never smoked myself. I really wanted him to quit. Then we started to do a lot of boating, motorcycles & snowmobiles (always around gas). Our first boat we had we had to blow out the fumes before we started the engine so Joe said, "I think I'll quit smoking because mostly of our hobbies, dogs, horse's & me." And he quit all by himself & never smoked again. I was SO pleased.

I had been trying to stop for a while. I was down to just lighting them and taking a puff. Dam spendy habit that way :0) Anyway I had to come do a walk through of the house in AZ in July. Lord it was hot and I was staying at a friends house. I went out side and stood in a bucket of ice so I would be cool enough to smoke. Anyone that says it isn't an addition has never been out of gas and out of smokes at the same time. :0) So glad I got that monkey off of my back!
