Please tell us about your smoking Thursday. I know I did not smoke yesterday and I think my daughters also did not smoke.
Great to have a post from Lori from Indiana who brought up the subject of girls smoking cigars. I know Jessica has had a few at age 14. Lisa apparently tried a cigar and it repulsed her against cigarettes. She did not smoke cigarettes for several days but returned only to quit again.
Jessica's group has done some cigar smoking. A girl who graduated from high school only likes cigars and not cigarettes. Her younger sister, a year older than Jessica, also prefers cigars and finds so little cigar support that she does not smoke them at all.
Neely, a friend of Jessica's, tried cigars with the older girls but is not smoking cigarettes. As Lori noted around 17-18 is the age for a young lady to smoke cigars. That seems to be the case of the girls my girls know.
As for Lori saying she would introduce a girl to cigarettes at 15, cigarette smoking seems to start a lot sooner. I was 17 when I first smoked a cigarette but that was the old days.
As I said before, the girls on Jessica's volleyball team decided to have all try at least one cigarette a day until they quit on Sept. 20.
That was getting out of hand so some players have stopped while 2 girls who had to force themselves to smoke even one cigarette are having to deal with an addiction now.
Amy, a senior, and Maria, a junior, are showing serious signs of addiction. In addition to volleyball, both are counted on in basketball, a wind demanding sport, and softball, where they can coast, relatively speaking.
A serious smoker for a long time has been Charlotte, a freshman like Jessica who lives next door. April, another freshman, is picking up her occasional smoking.
Even without me going outside to smoke, it still happens. Melanie, Charlotte's mom, still slips off to smoke but so do Victoria, Gin's mom; and Sylvia, Maria's mom. Gin was known a a heavy "non-inhaler" before she gave up cigarettes.
Headed the other direction is Rebecca, who stopped after a brief return, because she found her granddaughters smoking her cigarettes.
She is letting Amy choose and admits her husband is not ready for her to stop smoking again. Rebecca says her husband calls it pulling the rug out from under him with her 2-week run of smoking.
I hear hints from my husband that I should still be smoking but Rebecca is 54. Jean, who tried smoking for a while to bring her husband back after a split over wife swapping, was not smoking but said she is watching her husband's pulse to see if it would be best to smoke again.
Sylvia has parlayed her recent adoption of smoking to a romance. It seems single mom meets nice guy. Smoking is just collateral damage.
So is the smoking of Sylvia's 13-year-old daughter Patricia. She had her own pack and was generously supplying teammates, other middle school students and even the enemy, Rebecca's granddaughter from another middle school in the school district.
Unfortunately, my youngest son Darrell says Rebecca's 10-year-old daughter Janet managed to have a cigarette. Apparently he only watched but I don't like the idea.
Charlene, mother of 2 girls on Lisa's softball team from last summer, joined the smokers. Her oldest is a 7th grader and Lisa said most on her school's 7th grade team are smoking.
Lisa is in the 7th grade but moved up to the 8th grade team with Patricia but apparently less smokers.
While Charlene was smoking with the grownups, several 7th graders gathered to smoke.
Glenda, her 11-year-old daughter took Janet to her mother's car where they both had a cigarette. Janet has been invited to be on the Elite softball team by Charlene. I guess Glenda is just keeping the new recruit happy.
I think the church people were right. The kids should have gone to the Wednesday night services instead of having a volleyball match.
We won by the way.
Now, Please tell us about your smoking Thursday.
