Hope you sold lots and lots of schtuff!  And that's the great thing about long-term quits - you forget all about celebrating milestones because you're NOT THINKING OF CIGARETTES ANY MORE!!!

Kudos kid!

We sold enough to make room for more stuff. I'm sitting out there & here comes my wife from down the street visiting her friends yard sale with am arm full of stuff.

It's great not to have to think about smoking all the time. It consumed us & took so much away.

More than halfway to the 5 digit club! We better get busy figuring out a name for it! You'll be there in no time! Garage Sales are the best way to spend any day! Too bad they're only on summer weekends!
