Glad to hear you're doing well. And it's also good to hear that it gets easier!
Haven't found an answer to that Melanie, other than to grin and bear it. Sometimes you can't avoid a situation, and that's the only thing you can do. But still it helps not to be around smokers and to know that you're not the only one going through it. That's why this website is a huge help!

I too have been away for awhile and am happy to report, STILL SMOKE FREE. It was pretty hard for 3 days before my vaca. I think due to being busy packing and such, which usually required lots of smoke brakes. Wasn't sure how the week of vaca would go, but glad to say it went fairly easily. Glad to be back and see everyone else doing good too!!
