Well I think we might have brought the front half (living room and dining/kitchen combo room) from level 2 to level 1!!! Also bathroom is definitely level 1 now. Both kidlets room and master Bedroom are still level 2 and mine might be 2.5 but not sure as there is no poos or stinky stuffs, just boxes of clothes, junk etc that got piled into that room. Husband helped immensely and I kinda bribed him. We threw a party on Monday night for 5 friends to hang out and drink some interesting alcoholic concoctions (don't drink often but when we all get together wow its a lot )... so by having that he felt ashamed finally and started to finally throw the junk out of front of the apartment, old DVD players that are broke, trash, newspapers, etc. I am so proud, it smells good (Ty lemon pinesol for kitchen floor) and I will post in progress pictures soon. Also was cool to see that although yes their are dishes piled all over the kitchen that shock of all shocks (I cleaned them last night and forgot, almost like i thought it was a dream), that they are all clean!!! I spent 3 hrs washing dishes last night..hubby saw this morning when he got home he saw it, turned around and went to mcdonalds and bought me breakfast with a sweet tea!!! So he woke me up at 6:30am to eat with him He is finally back on nights at his security job, went back to 7:45pm to 5:45-6:45am I like this schedule better actually and house stays cleaner with just me and little one at night. Now all he has to do is take out trash when it comes to the chores. I don't mind doing the rest as long as he helps sometimes.. oh and BTW...this is day 3 of my not smoking!!! Woot for me, doing quite well, not really craving but get occasionally crabby and mainly feel strange when it is a time that I would have normally smoked, like after I eat I feel strange like I am forgetting something that is so conditioned into me. I am using patches just for this week but not going to use them long, I quit last time for 4 years with wellbutrin/zyban, hypnosis cd and patches. This time I have a few days worth of patches and the cd but no pills or patches for long period of time. I am determined though and actually have lost a pound in 3 days instead of gaining as apetite is still low from depression. Ok enough ranting from me, sorry lots of nervous energy from detoxing

on both achievements. Isn't it nice to get up to a clean kitchen with clean dishes for breakfast? I think so. So did you go cold turkey for your no smoking plan? Kudos on no smoking. That is a really tough one!!! Keep it up.

Still smoke free and had enormous energy since this morning, i think the smokin was making me fatigued like crazy. I am doing pretty good, cant go down to my moms house right now though she chain smokes and it gave me a nose bleed so I am staying away.. Another amazing thing is that my 4 y/o daughter apparently now loves to help me clean and doesnt go hide or yell no when i mention cleaning now...woot!!!
