Thanks dutchy but I will be bringing beer up north.  I've had cocktails one night since I quit and survived. :rotflmao: the saving grace here is I would have to drive to st cloud to get the tobacco I like, been a big deterrent!!👍 It'll be even a bigger one up north

And I'm looking at it from this perspective, I need to get past that stage also!

I smoked in college 50 years ago. Smoked a whole pack of cigarillos one night.....could hardly breath the next day. I said to myself...." This is not good for me." Haven't touched one since.

Hang in there. Don't give in. It WILL eventually get easier. :happy1: :happy1:

Stay tuff Glenn. When my wife quit she kept a pack of cigs in her car for over a year. It took her about that long to really get over the urge. It has been a habit for so long it takes awhile to get over it. Like others said it is all mental now.

Morning boys. 18 here and a brisk wind out of the East. Heading for a high of 30 today. Da wifey is getting ready for work and the coffee is brewing. Got some projects to work on this morning then maybe go fish this afternoon. One project is finish the one I was working on yesterday. Yesterday I installed a heater in our Ranger. Pretty much have it done but not getting any heat.  :confused: I got the option of a maxstat which is an inline thermostat to send coolant to the heater first. I am thinking that the thermostat might be backwards. I will need to remove that and check. The heater is an Ice crusher brand. Well, just another day in paradise. Have a good one boys.

Morning boys.  Yup I gained some weight when I quit smoking but then lost some of it after things leveled out later on.  Sure hope the wife gets good news at her checkup.  So is that an aftermarket heater JB?  You have to cut the vent holes in your dash for that?  I have to run to town today to pick up some stuff.  May get the sled running and check out the fish house too.  22 and windy here.  Out of the east like JB said.  You all have a good one.

Mornin' comrades! 30 at choretime heading for a high in the mid-30's. Got some snow moving to do again after the wind has been blowing out of the south since yesterday. At least it's warmer. Getting roped into helping prepare for the stupid wedding I got out of going to. Have I ever mentioned I really hate weddings?  :scratch: Seems some of the flowers got frozen in shipment. Odd. When you're dumb enough to schedule a wedding on New Years Eve that kinda crap goes with territory. Leave me out of it, completely.  :angry:

Good luck to Smurfette! :happy1:

I feel for you Dotch.  I don't like having to go to those things anymore neither.  The older I get the less I like them.  And on New Years.  Rookie night.  That is as bad as guys getting married on the opening of hunting season.  ???  What are they thinking.

LPS, yes Ice Crusher is an aftermarket heater. Took me a bit but I finally got it blowing heat. Had an air lock in the heater. Yes 8 had to drill the holes. The kit comes with templates and the holesaws.

Ya, if anyone I know ever gets married during hunting season they will be no friend of mine anymore.  I hate weddings too. And having them on holiday weekends is flat out wrong.

Morning boys. 26 here and that is supposed to be the high for today.  Going to send the wife off to work and then head out fishing. Some friends are coming up late afternoon today and staying until Monday morning. So fishing will be on the agenda. Just another day in paradise. Have a good one boys.

 :scratch: Yeah mike, MnDOT says a good share of Mn 6 is not the best & that's his usual route. A couple sections are even being reported as icy. :rolleyes: Hope he takes it easy.

Got the roof raked off as far as I could reach yesterday, blew the snow away from the house after that. After that I cleaned off the end of the driveway and blew a path to read the gas meter. Got the tandem trailer dug out and shoveled off and lastly blew out a trail from the woods up into the back yard for the deer. They showed up less than 30 thirty minutes later and started eating the corn out of the squirrel feeder I just filled. Who would have thought that. Got to load snowmobile and tractor up today so I can head North tomorrow morning. Have a great day all, later.... :happy1: :happy1:
