I had the same problem, and it started about...Thanksgivingish I'd say? Last Friday I was finally in the mood for a nice smoke and I was out at the bars instead. I got home and was too tiresd and buzzed so I promised myself I'd do some damage to my stock on Saturday. And I did, had my first 5 cigar day. I think it's a lot like anything--once you force yourself back into the habit, you'll find yourself enjoying it again.

could be the cold weather and long dark days. I know that I usually go from December-April without a smoke as its to cold to smoke and I have no other place to light up.

I have only smoked about four cigars since it got really cold in the Fall and now deep into Winter.

I enjoy sitting outside in a comfy chair with a drink and iPod/iPhone listening to music. It is great to unwind from a long day like that while the Sun goes down! It is just too cold and not relaxing enough in the Winter.

Talking Cigar Enjoyment Time Dwindling?

I notice the number of smokes I have go down in proportion to the outdoor temperature. I long for the Spring.

I'm new-ish to the hobby, but I was having 2 to 3 per week when I first started in the summer. Once the days started getting shorter and the air colder, I've gone down to an average of something like 2 to 3 per month. I bought a heater to put in front of me on my deck, but that doesn't help the fact that it's dark by the time I get home from work. I REALLY miss being able to unwind with a cigar after a stressful day at work.

I check the almanac online almost every day to watch the days get longer.... all I need is 1 to 1.5 hours of semi-daylight and I should have enough time for a smaller cigar of some kind (I'm a slow smoker).

I agree with you, I may only smoke 1 cigar a week it seems. I can't wait for the summer time so I can go on walks after work to smoke a cigar, and sit outside at our patio and surf the web and smoke some of my cigars. Ah, I am looking forward to that greatly!

I say this every winter .... "I'm getting a gas line run to the garage and a heater installed this spring"

4 yrs later I still rely on my kerosene space heater which does a decent job but still puts off some kero fumes. So I'll say it again - Once Lowes starts clearencing thier garage heaters I'm buying one!!!!!!!!!! I just wonder how long it will take for me to hire someone to install it
