Stumblina, I'm the same way with the smell, no smoking in the house. The garage is easy enough to smoke in, there's exhaust fumes, oil, gas, all sorts of other stink to cover it up. If you're down to 1/2 a pack/day, you might want to try switching to a "lighter" cig, weaning yourself down to a point where stopping will be easier with less nicotine in your system.
Rissak, no aids in the quit, I just decided to. We went down to see my new born nephew on the weekend, I timed the quit with the trip since I'll be with family and have no opportunity to smoke. I've always been able to stop smoking, it's after missing it some time later, is where I break. Pretty much the opposite from everyone else that has the hardest time getting the first few days or weeks under the belt.
I would smoke for 3 months, quit for 3, smoke for 2, quit for 1, smoke for 6, quit for a year, it really pisses Julie off since she neever smoked and hates it when I start back up, she doesn't understand the craving to smoke.
The last year has been a struggle with the smoking, but so has everything else been. Very few days were spent relaxed, it's hard to quit a crutch when you need something to lean on. There's been a few threads here where other peeps are in the same boat, fighting the smoking thing, hopefully all of us will succeed, and we'll smell better!
