Around analog smokers...

[MSUHolly]

So I'm home from school for the weekend since I have a long weekend due to MLK Jr. Day Monday. My parents both smoke analogs (although they did go purchase vision spinners yesterday but haven't started using them full time yet). I was worried how I'd do being around them smoking analogs full time since I am only a week out from my last analog since I switched to vaping. I am happy to report that I had no issues being around them smoking analogs. No cravings, didn't bother me whatsoever. It smells horribly. Not sure how I smoked those for 18 years.

The transition for me was so easy, it is not as easy for them. They are struggling quite a bit. I am hoping they will keep trying at it and reducing their analog intake, but right now I'm just proud of them for taking the first step.

Awesome! I do believe much of dealing with analogs around you is your mind-set, my wife still smokes, though she's down to 1/4 pack-per-day now and I have a few guys that smoke at work that essentially have to go out the door in my work area to get their fix. I never really knew how strong a lingering smell analog's had on a person till now...

I have been patiently working on my wife to give vaping a real shot and I am very pleased that it's working for her, she's made a huge cut-back this past week and is actually enjoying the couple flavors we finally found for her...

Actually the faint whiff of burning tobacco I still love...

I remember in basic training we were forced (smoking privileges were "possibly" earned later) to quit, cold-turkey the Army way, anyway our drill instructor smoked and would make his nice and gentle wake-up call smoking down the hall in the barracks, I will never forget how wonderful that darn cig he smoked smelled first thing in the morning...

Anyway, the just-had-a-smoke smell that lingers on your clothes and body are not so pleasant...

I find some perfumes/bodywash/aftershave more "objectionable" than smoking aromas.
