That is so funny that you said that you like yourself better now! I was thinking the same thing! This morning I was thinking about how good I smelled![i]Text[/i] I am a clean freak (used to smoke outside) but have also enjoyed the smell of household cleaners! I also smelled my husbands body spray last night in bed, which was nice. :p [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 1/8/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 8 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 129 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $33.6 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 0 [B]Hrs:[/B] 19 [B]Mins:[/B] 7 [B]Seconds:[/B] 58

Hi, Redy I know what you mean - just wait a few more days until you pull something out of a closet that has been hanging for a while without being worn or washed. Learned a little trick a couple of years ago from a very smart lady on the site named PammieSue, she told me bounce would remove the odor. I have started washing everything in the house that I can shove in the washer and then drying it with bounce fabric softener sheets. I have tried the new freebreez also the citrus scent it works really good also. It will take some time - I am considering tearing down the whole darn house and starting over! Ha/ha Hopefully as the spring arrives in a couple of months we can open some windows and let the fresh begin. This will be my first spring in 32 years that I have not been saturated in stinky smelly nicotine. Can hardly wait to smell the spring flowers for once in many years ( since childhood).

Hi there- Give it time... I love cleaning the house with a lemon cleaner and it leaves the home smelling so fresh! Also - I put lemons or limes in a pretty bowl - the room/house will pick up the fresh scent...and its all natural. Cleaning I guess would be #1... and use orange cleaner as well... Time - it will take some time, but enjoy the journey of getting there too!
