Just wanted to let you all know that as of this past Monday, June 11th, my husband celebrated one whole year nicotine-free!
Yep, that’s right! He quit that chewin’ tobacco last summer, and this time it’s for good!
Can we all give him a rousing good cheer? Send in some comments and tell him how excellent he is!
Seriously, hon….GREAT JOB! You’re the best!

Oh, wow. Congratulations! I was never successful quitting completely (smoking) til I got pregnant. Hard, hard, hard. Good for you.
I have to do it. I always tell myself I won’t but, look, I’m doing it anyway… Has RegularSister had that kid yet?
Congratulations to RegularDad! Hip Hip Hooray!
Andie,
Don’t feel bad…you’re not the first to ask that. The answer is: nope, not yet. And you can imagine how she’s feeling about that.
Thanks for the cheers for RD, everyone. Keep it comin’.
You ROCK for quitting! It is one of THE MOST LOVING things you can do for your kids. Oh jeeeezus, it is hard to do. Excellent good job, Daddy-o!
Way to go Regular Dad!
I had three July babies. Three very tardy July babies. I’m almost done taking it out on them in small, sneaky ways. Almost.
RegularSister has my prayers, cheers, happy thoughts, support, much commiseration, utmost admiration and deepest sympathy.
No one stays pregnant forever.
See? I’ll even give her a TARGET! (What kind of moron says that stuff to a hot, pregnant woman? Now, she can throw things at me and vent some frustration.
Congratulations RegularDad! We’re proud of both of you guys for stickin’ with it! Great job guys!
andie,
Just so you know, I was actually LOL-ing there for a moment. Hey RegularSis, did you hear that? Andie’s fair game.
(everybody, DUCK!)
Seriously, though. RegularSis does have our deepest sympathies and admiration. Once of my daughters was born at the beginning of September. Not only did I do the whole June and July, but I did an August too. Not that it matters now. Because I’m not currently 9 months pregnant in June. Like my fabulous RegularSis.
Hang in there, Sis. We love you.
ooohh! Me and Shawna posted at the same time. That means we’re both here together.
I feel all warm and fuzzy and happy now.
Yep, because an hour on the phone JUST ISN’T ENOUGH… lol
And a BIG hug to RegularSis. Hang in there!
Hotdog! Now if I can get my sister off the GUM!!!! She just started that new wonder drug that starts with a “C”. Can’t remember the rest.
Woohoo. Good for you.
Oh dear. RegularDad has an uncle that’s been hooked on the gum for over 10 years now. It’s terrible, isn’t it, how insidious nicotine can be? Ugh!
Test number 643.
Oh! It worked! I can’t believe it. I haven’t been able to post comments to your blog for weeks and weeks now. Anyway, Congrats to RegularDad. I’m always impressed with people who quit and stay quit. I know it must be difficult.
Hey Scarlett,
I’m not sure why you couldn’t leave comments, but I’ll try to find out what might cause that. Sorry ’bout that.
I even tried to log out all together and log back in, but that didn’t work either. I didn’t really try 643 tests, but I did type out many long comments and then later would realize they weren’t there.
I first noticed a problem when you took your girls to the beach and your little fell off a chair in a restuarant. She screamed out something like, ‘You’re not watching me!!!’ and it just made me ROFLOL. So anyway, however long ago that post was is how long its been since I could post.
I thought I’d been banned! *g*
Ban you? NEVER! Perish the thought!
Yeah, that beach scene was something else. Notice we haven’t been back to the beach yet? I’m still recovering from that day last month.
