***What Are You Smoking, February 2022?***

[TheIronMonkey]

Good afternoon. No smoking so far. Now it's my wife's turn with covid. But she only has a sore throat and her blood sugar is a bit out of control because of the covid, as she is diabetic. So I don't want her to be uncomfortable smelling of tobacco. I can handle it, I admit I miss not being able to smoke something. There came a bad time in my life. After many years, I lost my job. And it is quite humiliating and frustrating. After almost 30 years working. Spain is the most unemployed country in the European Community. Since the eighties, until today, the cavernicola employment system of this country is disgusting. Now I have already said it, I could not hold my rage and my anger any longer. Sorry guys. I am sorry to talk about this, I am ashamed.

Sorry to hear this. As was said above, try not to feel ashamed—there are often circumstances beyond our control that are not due to anything we did ourselves.

Smoked a bowl of cowboy coffee with my boy Rush last night. Also had pizza and beer.

Thanks for your kind words guys. I know many of us are going through a rough patch too. I don't want to be selfish, telling my woes. You have to be positive and get back on your feet, or at least that's what the cheap psychology self-help manuals say, hahahahaahah. Thank you all, you are my brothers in this damn forum. I love you guys. And God bless you and your families.

Stay positive. Not in the Covid way, but in the emotional way and health way. Well, batteries need both positive and negative, and speaking of negative, a vacuum really sucks.

All of this to say, stay on the mend and my best wishes to you and your family.

Well, it’s a good thing that you know what to do my brother…this too shall pass. ?️

The slow trod of one pipe a day will continue for at least another few weeks.

My doctor thinks I’m nuts, I think he’s a quack. I’m sure one of us is right.

Sutliff’s Heavy English in a Sebastian Beo Acorn. A note for all of you, my brothers who are suffering pain of one sort or another: May God be with you and bring you comfort. Incidentally, my wife had Covid two weeks ago – – a light dose, but that’s because she had the vaccine, and she had nausea, runny nose, coughing, dizziness and weakness. While I certainly wouldn’t wish to see a heavy dose, unfortunately I see them all the time because I work as a hospital chaplain. And do you know what the last words of those who are dying from Covid are? It’s simple: “I wish I had gotten the vaccine.” These poor people who refuse to listen to their doctors are putting themselves and their loved ones at such risk, and it’s so sad, because I see them every day.

I wish you a speedy and happy recovery for your wife. It is a touching story. Poor people who didn't want to get vaccinated. God bless you and those people who left like that, in such a cruel way.

Wishing you and your family all good things @JOHN72. You will get through this. Hoping to get in a small bowl of Cockstrong before work.
