Day 36
Still not smoking and feeling good within myself. I keep myself as busy as possible which is very hard at times due to bad arthritis in my hands; I'm actually on the waiting list for surgery. The pain gets me down sometimes but I have to say I haven't wanted a smoke because of it. I walk my dog once or twice a day but they are only short walks as he has arthritis too!!
I can honestly say I do not miss the smell of stale tobacco, cleaning filthy ashtrays, spraying air freshener everywhere to make my place smell better or the smell in my hair and clothes. But I am having trouble getting the smell out of my car which is disgusting.
I have reduced the NRT patch from the 21mg to 14mg starting today and so far so good.
Good luck everyone on their own personal journey.
Well Done Cheers to you for your now win, oils you buy from candle shops mix with a little amoral and clean leather, put oil into spray bottle add water and spray carpet weekly eventually smell gone.
Alleycat, you have done sooooo great, hi 5s to you., yes I find it great not having the lingering smell from smoke hanging around wheather its around your home, car, or even on your clothes or in your hair...
The greatest benefits I have found with my journey, is that beacause I work with
customers, I used to always spray myself n pop in a mint to mask my stink smoke smell, now there is no need to go to that drastic measures to make sure I am presentable, but now I find some of my clients who smoke, just don't smell right....how the tables have
turned aye.
May I suggest giving your car a good thorough clean inside, wiping everything even the seats, final wipe with something that has a lovely smell, travel with the vents open so the
air is circulating, after awhile that smoke smell will disappear.
Thanks for the advice ladies, I'll give them both a try.
Jenno....I used to do the same thing, spray myself and suck on mints and yes, the tables have turned. Good luck to you both.
