And neither does the smells from cooking. I am sure any smell, if it was extremely overwhelming, infiltrated and stuck to the walls the way cigarette smoke does, it would overwhelm me. Chocolate chip cookie smell would become annoying and then nauseating. But generally, those smells aren't as...

BBQ don't bother me at all. It's like a campground. The campfire smoke doesn't bother me unless it does that thing where it follows you around and goes directly up your nose when you're sitting right by it.

It comes into my house from my neighbors so I know your pain. Especially during summer when we all have our doors open. I too need 40 plus feet lol.

Oh that is creepy! I sometimes smell it from my neighbors before I see them. I swear it is a good 40 feet from me. And yet studies say it can be that far. Well it is for me.

Yeah I agree. It just seems hard to police the sidewalks. As far as the bars I don't care either. I never attend bars. Here they aren't allowed in restaurants and I will say that's been nice. Where I live it seems no one uses e-cigs either. It is amazing to me how far smoke travels. They can be...

That does make sense. I personally can't stand smoke. I just don't see the logistics of citing people for this. And the slippery slope aspect.

I don't like too much government overreach. Where I live they fast-tracked a law for a tax. It was supposed to be in one area and quickly spread into others for monetary gain. It wasn't popular when it was first unrolled but then they started taxing other areas. We all hated it and got it...

I will say I've personally seen more damage done with prescription pills, using according to directions, than I have with marijuana. The side effects are horrendous for pills. When you are in pain, I think it can be an excellent pain reliever. My only concern is abusing it but people abuse food...

Yeah! Not necessarily a bad pastor just not quite the right fit. I think God makes us all unique with different mini ministries etc. so we might be called to different areas in life and that church might not fit our needs, growths.

Thanks! Oops, by MJ I think I meant MM, medical marijuana :). That device sounds promising. I hope you can find a way to get it. Physical pain can drive a person insane. So many of us have constant pain and I got to believe there's so much more that can be done. I am glad you have support...

This just reminds me how blessed I am to live in a country where I can choose my religion. Praying for them and other countries too.

May God surround you with people who will cherish you for being you. You are valuable just the way you are. Praying for you!

It is hard finding a new church. I pray you find one that fits your needs and can make a spiritual family for yourself. I like to check out churches websites and social media sites to get a feel for them. I am really picky about my churches. It is hard to just jump in.

Please, God, heal these two people and let them walk again. In the name of Jesus, amen!

Praying your tests come back normal and that you have a peace that surpasses all human understanding while waiting.

I think you are taking the right steps. I hope it all works out. I will pray again for you.

So very true! Praying for all those struggling in their marriages.

I am praying for you both! I think it is great that you are returning to church and surrounding yourself with other believers. Have you thought about counseling even on your own?

I am so sorry about your struggle. My story is a bit different (most of my problems stem from car accidents) but I know where you are coming from because I have tried dry-needling, baclofen and many other things. Have migraines, TMJ, chronic pains etc. Most of mine was tolerable until a car...

Good job, I know it's hard.
