Thanks so much, Eya. :) And congratulations to you too!
We can't go back now. I wouldn't even want that, even if there were no health risks and smoking was cheap. Just the smell is disgusting...
At my work, one other smoker has already quit. She started just after my major attempt in March. And another smoker started wearing the patch yesterday. And a third smoker is preparing herself for a serious quit attempt in September.
Now I just have to get my partner to try again, hahaha. ;) Trying to lead by quiet, subtle, passive example. I don't even bring it up--and I notice my partner is really talking more and more and more about quitting. :D So, progress.
