It seems I'm alone on the opinion that you should go ahead and see how it goes. Let me explain a little why I think this. At some point, you MUST face your triggers and deal with them. Where's a safer place than at home with a backup plan in place in case it gets too tough? I think you should stick with the plan, hang out with your neighbor, even if she/he IS smoking, and see how it goes. Like I said, you can't stop living life, so you MUST face triggers eventually. I can't think of a better time and a better place than your own home.
Crave the Quit!

Jan,
That's a tough call. I'd personally say give it a shot and see how badly you start craving... and if it gets too intense for you, let hubby hand out candy. That'd be my solution. You might find that the temptation isn't near as strong as you think it will be. Whenever you anticipate a craving, it almost always ends up being less of a trigger than you thought it would be. So I say go ahead and try... but leave plan B (hubby) as an option.
Crave the Quit!

Jan58, it's good to make new memories, but if you feel it will be too rough, have plan B ready, protect your quit at all cost. Have fun Marie

Hi Jan!!!
How about giving your candy to the neighbor to pass out to the kids for you. Turn off all the lights in the house so nobody rings the bell and upsets the girls. And go out for a nice dinner and a movie to celebrate those two weeks! :)
