I\u2019m hoping this will help <strong>ween my body off nicotine gradually<\/strong> instead of stopping too fast. If I can <strong>keep this up for a bit<\/strong>, I\u2019ll be one step closer to <strong>quitting smoking completely<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Crazy Weather and Roof Leaks<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The <strong>weather is nuts<\/strong> right now. Last week, we were <strong>below zero<\/strong>, and now it\u2019s <strong>40 degrees<\/strong> and everything is <strong>melting fast<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With the sudden warm-up, we\u2019ve had <strong>a few roof leaks<\/strong> in the house. I think it\u2019s due to the <strong>unprecedented ice dams<\/strong> that formed everywhere. Unfortunately, I won\u2019t get a chance to <strong>inspect the damage<\/strong> until <strong>everything fully melts<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We also have <strong>huge icicles hanging off the house<\/strong>, and I\u2019m <strong>not going anywhere near them<\/strong> until they <strong>fall off on their own<\/strong>. No need to get crushed by falling ice!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Streaming Updates and StreamerBot Fixes<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Since discovering an <strong>issue with StreamerBot<\/strong>, I decided to <strong>take the TV offline<\/strong> until they <strong>get it fixed<\/strong>. No worries\u2014there\u2019s still <strong>plenty of other things<\/strong> I can work on. I\u2019m <strong>keeping an eye on my support ticket<\/strong>, so I\u2019ll know as soon as it\u2019s resolved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Tomorrow\u2019s Vet Visit Plans<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Tomorrow is <strong>vet day<\/strong>, and we\u2019re still <strong>taking Sasha<\/strong> along with <strong>one other pup<\/strong>. With the <strong>wild temperature swings<\/strong>, Rusty\u2019s <strong>attitude has been rough lately<\/strong>. If he doesn\u2019t <strong>settle down<\/strong>, we\u2019ll leave him home and take <strong>Little Man instead<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That doesn\u2019t mean Rusty is missing out\u2014I\u2019ll still <strong>take him for a ride<\/strong>, just somewhere <strong>closer to home<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Looking forward to getting through the week and seeing how everything unfolds!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Join Us Live!<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>\ud83d\udccc <strong>Our website:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/tectuma.com\/\">Tectuma<\/a><br>\ud83d\udccc <strong>The house Wiki:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/tectuma.com\/house\/index.php\/Main_Page\">House Wiki<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\ud83d\udd17 <strong>Follow Us:<\/strong><br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/TectumaCommunity\">Facebook<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/discord.gg\/bJ24vjk\">Discord<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/streamelements.com\/tectuma-0ae5d\/tip\">Donate<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\ud83c\udfae <strong>Live On:<\/strong><br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.twitch.tv\/tectuma\">Twitch &#8211; Main<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/kick.com\/tectuma\">Kick<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/Tectuma\">YouTube<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Quitting Smoking Progress and Small Wins It\u2019s Monday, which means back to work, but I\u2019m feeling a little proud of myself.
