Hi Gina,
Congrats from me to, from one late boomer to another. It is tough to tell people that you have started smoking especially your husband. You should be honest with your husband, and tell him that you started. I think you should tell him as soon as you can that way you will know how he feels about it. That way the 2 of you can talk about it peacefully, it doesn't have to be come a battle betweewn the 2 of you, get it done as soon as you can, so it doesnt become a bigger deal later, you can tell him how you feel about your smoking and that your old enough to make this decision, but just wanted to let him know, before he finds out from someone else that your smoking.
Well good luck and keep us all posted of what happens.

: Hi,
:
: I am 42 years old and
: recently decided to
: start smoking. I have
: been traveling a lot
: with my job and was at a
: meeting recently and
: afterwards we all
: decided to go out for
: drinks. Everybody was
: smoking except I. The
: next day after work I
: decided to go buy a pack
: of Marlboro lights and
: try it out for the 3
: hour ride home. I was
: really anxious to try
: the first one. After
: lighting up and taking a
: few puffs I threw it out
: the window thinking to
: myself how can anyone
: smoke these things.
: After being in the car
: for about an hour
: decided to give it
: another try. Same thing
: did not really like it
: all that much, after 3
: or 4 puffs threw it out
: again. I never did get
: rid of the pack and just
: kept them in my glove
: box. About two days
: later I had a really bad
: day at work and after
: leaving decided to try
: it again. I ended up
: smoking most of it and
: it felt pretty good. To
: fast forward a little I
: have gradually been
: smoking a little more
: like about 2 or 3 day
: mostly in the car. My
: husband still does not
: know and I am afraid to
: tell him because I know
: he will not like it and
: it will cause a big
: argument, etc....but I
: know I will have to tell
: him before he finds out
: himself. I seem to be
: comfortable smoking only
: a few a day but lately I
: have been thinking about
: smoking more. I don't
: know if I should or if I
: should just stick to a
: few a day? And how
: should I go about
: telling my husband
: without him getting
: upset?
