TODAY the non-smoking ban.....

Goes in to effect in Florida.But someone has to actually complain about it for it to work..and most people smoke at The Pub or just dont care.There is a 500.$$ fine for the 1st offense. Also if someone complains about someone smoking--the manager has to ask the smoker to put it out--if they fail to comply we have to call the cops!!Well-thats what the law says anyhow..I think the police need to be doing more important things than THAT.. I cant wait to see how all of this un-folds over the next few months..It will be interesting..mel

>>I dont feel like I have TRULY quit all the way..its been a tough summer

**Adding my two cents here Mel

I guess that would depend how often you bum ..

Daily.. I doubt it .. every once in a while..better than more ..

So .. you have but will feel like it completely when you do

Loves ya always :)

***Thanks eceryone for your words****Believe me I WILL turn to you when I do take the plunge--about 398 days or so from now . It will be hard 'cause my SO smokes too!!But maybe if I quit he will too. Yes to answer the question I smoke about a carton a week--used to be more--now it is less since I am working again (don't want to leave the desk too often). And of course the 7 hours I am traveling (one way)I get 1 smoke at Detroit. I started when I was 13--when I found out that it helped relieve all of the pain I had (spastic gastritis spastic colitis)--Doc said it was hormones but even after the change it has never gone away--I have meds but they make me so sleepy!!!Can't afford that.I have tried all of the herbal remedies but they didn't help--so I use the meds only when I absolutely need it. I have been taking them every day since I came here since it doesn't take much brain power to do what I am doing--eventually tho the assignment will get more challanging--I hope.

Nuff said

Luv to all

Travel day tmw have to pack
