     Good afternoon friends. We are going to travel by air on the FREEDOM Plane to Bangladash. 27 yr old shaheen is eagerly awaiting our arrival. His posts are always upbeat and bring a smile to my face. His advice to those wanting to quit, "Believe in yourself .. nothing is impossible" We have been cleared for landing. Sit tight and momentarily we will see shaheen boarding the plane. Here he is with his winning smile. Welcome aboard and Congrats on your entry into the TDC with 100 ash-kickin' days behind you:) Buckle up! We are headed home to the states and to the FREEDOM Train. If everyone is settled in, we will head to New Castle Del. to pick up Pat, another TDC entrant with 100 smoke free days. Pat has 2 sons and 2 grandsons, likes collecting lighthouses, reading, walking and computer time. Hop on up and have a seat. WTG Pat!!!!!!! Another TDC honoree is Stonecipher in Pennsylvania. A "grandmother who refuses to stop playing in the mud" ( me too ) she loves JESUS, her family, Pink Floyd, the outdoors, music, reading, writing, children, Nature etc. Stone says, "that in order to be happy .. she must be creating something. Well you have created a fantastic quit of 100 days and we are here for you to come aboard and join in the festivities. High Fives!!!!! Ivtigger is our nEXt lady. She is in Fitzgerald Georgia. A single mom of 3. She has had recent surgery and hasn't been that active on EX. Let's have you climb these steps and be seated nEXt to a friend. Hats off to you on 50 days smoke free!!!! Onto Lancaster Pa. ( love this little town ) Mikecity makes this place his home. There are so many good things to do according to Mike ( I agree ) Mike says that "Life in the city is a good life" Know what else is good? Your one year as a non smoker. Cheers for you Mike. Step up and party away with those that are here to shake your hand. Nice job there!!!! Off to Michigan. Our very own Miss Sunshine has a BIG day today. Matt and her three sons are already cheering for our Marcie with 500 days  and not one puff. This cutie pie girl has strong faith in GOD, loves being with her family, listening to her son's heavy metal music, snorkeling, camping, exercising, painting and get togethers with family and friends. I am so darn PROUD of you .. so PROUD!! You have worked through adversities and still claimed your quit. Marcie is one of our hugest supporters in addition to her behind the scene work. Her heart pounds loudly with the love she shares so willingly with all of us. Come take your seat of honor young lady. We are ready to celebrate with you!!!!!!!! Massachusetts is our final destination. Molzep ( Molly ) is a married mother of three. She likes her life as it is now, free of smoke, and no longer wishes to hurt her body. I see in my notes that you are at 1000 days of FREEDOM. May I be the first to Wecome you to the Quad Squad? Climb the steps and as you do, hear the applause for a job well done!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  What a ride!!!!! Great quits, great people, now we need great food, music and a whole lot of fun!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Have a super time aboard our Freedom Train♥                This Train is bound for FREEDOM from the Evils of tobacco and smoking.                                                        "IF YOU ARE NOT RIDING WITH US YOU ARE MISSING TRAIN."     ALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL ABOARD !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Linda♥

You said it Sootie! I can't believe my eyes and this is surely a great day to celebrate all these great quits. CONGRATULATIONS to all of our honorees today!

Thanks, Tommy.  You saved the day. Candy for everyone.

I just got home from work and hopped on the train.  I'm on page 4.  How many comments altogether?  This thing is LOOOOOOONG!  And the view is wonderful and the food looks so yummy.

Thanks everyone for all the special attention and especially thanks for being here for me these past 100 days!!!!  I can hardley believe it.  And I wanna be like Marcie: "Not one hit since the day she quit".  That has kept me away from the e-cig, gum, and lozenges as well as the cigarettes. I just love the sound of it.  Great motto.

This has been a fantastic journey so far.  And I look forward to many more months of being with all of you.

I'm here now, Pat.  But I can't start dancing until I've had a drink (and then only two or I have to go to sleep!) 

So, Nancy. . .are you still tending bar?  What I'd really go for is a Corona with a slice of lime.  From the bottle, no glass.

stonecipher

Godiva chocolates are great, but I will just take some Hershey's like the good old PA girl I am.  I would like that giant kiss I saw several posts back.

stonecipher

Oh.  I see how it is.  I am late to the party and everyone else went home.

That's okay.  I think I can have a good time on the leftovers!

lindan_7-14-10

Thank you Linda!!! I am laughing because I just finished a (small) dish of chocolate ice cream (the only chocolate I have in the house at present) and cracked open a cheap beer in a can for a nightcap.

Well, I will just close my eyes and pretend!  haha

It was a great ride.  I am amazed at all the comments and well wishes.  You put a lot of time and effort into this and it shows.  Thank you thank you.

Sorry to be so late to the party, but life happens!

Congratulations to all the joyous milestones today. I know Shaneen has really worked hard for his 100 days!  You've been very determined and today you reap the rewards of those efforts.

Congratulations to you stone ciper for your first 100 days!!  How exciting!  You've come a long way and learned a lot.  Keep going!

MikeCity!  Wow, 365 days!  So happy for you and your new life!  Thanks for your lovely Good Morning greetings for the past 365 days!

molep, so happy for you to make the 1000 squad!  Such an achievement and yes, that November group is awesome!!
