Yeah, I wasn't supposed to be able to have kids so we had cats instead. LOL. Then one day after years of treatment, a miracle happened and I was pregnant!!! But when you combine a baby with all those animals it gets a little hectic and one day I realized I just couldn't handle all that going on in the house. I was able to keep all my cats until the end but it was definitely harder on me once the real kids came along. I just started letting my house cats outside. I realize that depends on if it's safe for them to be outside. But that was a great turning point for me. But then there were the horses and goats, the dog, birds and all the other animals that we have had along our journey with our kids. Life is sweet.

I totally understand smelling everything all the time. My poor partner, I put her through 10+ years of being a smoker, with her being a non-smoker. She was always great though, and only bi%$hed once in awhile.
When I attempting to quit without the help of an e-cig, I managed to do it for almost a year and then something happened and of course I started again.
She is actually the person who first told me about the e-cig and allowed me to go out and get one and then another and then another.
As for the smell, we have a ferret rescue and some very sick ferrets and all of a sudden I can smell them, their poo, their litter boxes, their musky odor, their etc...And somedays (depends on humidity actually) they smell so bad that I almost can't stand it.
Then we also have 2 dogs (that are either full poodle or part poodle) and they sometimes get pooo stuck to their rear ends and I just about barf...alot of the time. Which is interesting, because I used to work as a nurse in veterinary clinic..cleaning animals and kennels was part of job, along with surgery and very stinky dieing animals with their wounds, nacrotic and otherwise. And now that I can smell, I can't even handle some poooo.
On one hand it's good cause I can tell when someone needs a .... haircut.
But really?, I have to be able to handle all those smells, since that's what I want to do when I grow up. It's going to be awful, if I can't manage smells when I go back to working in the veterinarian field, next year.

HELP ME? maybe wear vicks like coroners do? I just don't know right now.
I have been not smoking for about 8 months or so.
