Good morning everyone and happy Sunday.
I just wanted to start by saying thank you to everyone who responded to my post yesterday/sent me messages. Y'all are so supportive, and it is so nice to have a network of people behind me. Today is day 4 for me and it's much better than day 3.
I just wanted to ask if anyone had any ideas on how to remove the smell of cigs from your home. I can't seem to get the lingering smell out no matter what I do.
Anyone had any luck with this?
Thanks for reading!
You may actually have to do a deep, thorough housecleaning! I'm talking shampooing all the carpets, washing/drycleaning all the curtains, washing all the bed and bathroom linens, maybe even washing the walls and the tables (yup - even the TABLES and wood things STINK-I know from my Mom's (who chainsmoked in every room of her apartment) stuff ). You can also put slices of apple or bowls of vinegar in the less smoked in areas if they smell, too. If you only smoked in one room or area, just doing that should do the trick, but if you smoked everywhere, you have a job in front of you. The good news is that it will help to keep you focused on never smoking in there again once you've done all this work. The OTHER good news is that you have extra time you used to waste smoking in which to DO it!!
Sorry to be the bearer of bad tidings - but it is what it is!
