    Hitt......Don't worry....Just fell off the wagon(No stinkies though:))I have been using again.........not like I was,but I have enjoyed a pinch or two and several snus portions. I'm going to play stupid and pretend I didn't know there was tobacco in those products...LOL! I do feel whole again! I think my back may need to see a chiropractor as well.......One of the side effects of getting old!

    PTJD.....Have fun in Tulsa! I'll fill you in on our anniversary plans in a day or two.....You'll get a kick out of it!

    Whiskey......You are so damn cute! Love the avatar(What is that? Your 1000th?).Don't let the "Other" Dorothy see that...she'll step on you with her six inch heeled ruby slippers!....Ouch!!! Glad you are here!

    :)Wiz!

    Wiz, I knew you were using a little again and honestly was asking about your health. You mentioned some pains and was wondering if that went away? Do you think it could have been withdrawal symptoms from not using snuff? I always thought you didn't care for snus very much. Has that changed? Anyway, I'm glad to hear you are "feeling whole" again. It reminds me of the condition I was in before I started snusing and was trying to vape only. Not a good place for me.

    Still waking up with the chest pains off and on Hitt...some days it's the lower back as well. Going to see the Doc again next week and ask to have a full chest X-ray as well as an EKG. I'm sure it's not due to my lack of snus and snuff....I'm thinking stress and the unability to relax. At least I hope thats all it is. I figure if it was something more serious it would bother me throughout the day...not just in the AM

    Thanks caring pal....apprecite it!

    Not worried Wiz about the other Dorothy...I am sure we can get along...LOL
    I'm sure you would Whiskey....I think she has spit again for the time being!

    :)Wiz

    Well Wiz I take it the new mattress didn't help. Stress can do some funny things to our bodies. I hope that's all it is. Are you able to relax any better since you started using again? You know it could have been the lack of WTA's that caused you to get stressed. I got pretty wigged out when I tried vaping only. I hope you feel better soon.

    Hitt....I don't think it's the WTA's being missing in my diet...More the stress of added responsibilities I have inherited at the work place without added income. I will feel alot better when I see what my lungs look like after close to two years of not smoking.

    Thanks again for the well wishes!

    Wiz I feel your pain on that one. I haven't had a salary increase in about three years. It is a sore subject for me at work. Luckily I can affect my income a little thru commission.

    Same here, been a while for a base pay increase. But I'm lucky that most of my income is a monthly bonus and the International group paying me also.
    One of these days someone higher up is gonna figure out I'm double dipping and getting payed by Domestic and International sales!

    PTJD......At least you get the free travel with yours!..LOL!

    :)Wiz!

    Don't get me wrong, I do get paid well but rest assured I do not choose where to travel to! They tell me where I'm needed!!! LOL!

    The last raise I got, coupled by my insurance increase, allowed me to take home 3 bucks LESS per week.

    Somehow, I went backwards??

    That sucks Vick!

    Don't feel bad Vicks.........Mine will be just about the same! Last year it was a wash! I remember when pay raises were supposed to adjust to the increasing cost of living:(

    A few of my bills have increased recently and I've been thinking of ways to cut expenses. I am thinking about cancelling my hbo and cinemax. We don't watch them that much and it would knock off $25 from my cable bill. I have managed to get pretty stocked up on supplies so shouldn't need to order much of anything for quite some time. I should finally start to see some savings from not smoking.

    Well I went to the Docs today for the chest pains I have been having(Might not have mentioned that here).Everything is clean as a whistle....Chest X-ray showed my lungs are fine(even after 30+ years of smoking)and EKG came back good as well. Blood pressure normal Cloresteral ok. He just could'nt tell me why I am having this pain in the AM. Could be Acid Reflex.......I may have to look up the Prince's old thread to see if he had the same symptoms.

    I was just happy to hear about the lungs....I guess the vaping has cleared up all the left over smoke!

    I'll tell you what guys.....The type of pain I have when I get up is beyond belief! I would have bet all of my attys and juice that it would have been lung related...although I'm glad it's not! The medication the Doc has me on is normally for Heartburn...Go figure!

    I can honestly say I prefer living over being dead! I do think Zombies are cool though!:)
