The Freedom train (8/28/12)

Hi! Welcome to this Tuesday's Freedom train ride. No ticket required. I'm so happy to be here today! I usually only drive the train on Sunday so this is a real treat! I am asking for special blessings to everyone needing it right now. If you are so inclined, please take a moment and join me.

 

First up today is a gal who calls herself Quitmama, otherwise known as Ronda. She is at the beginning of her quit and I'm asking her to join us because it's possible that she has reached her first 50 smoke free days. Last we heard from Ronda she told us that her husband had abandoned his quit and that she was very lonely. If you have a moment please stop by Ronda's page to say hello and let her know that we care about her and her quit. Ronda please come out and board the train! Even if you've lost your way come join us and we'll help you sort it all out!

Next up is DianeJoy aka IndinGrl with 600 smoke free days! Many of us recently had the pleasure of hearing from her via a borrowed computer. That is the reason Diane isn't around as much as she would prefer. Her own computer crashed quite a while ago. She is very encouraging and I for one tend to feel hugged when she visits me. Diane always imparts blessings as her faith is a very large part of her life. Come aboard Diane and visit with your fans and friends. Woo hoo! 600 days is awesome!

 

And finally, we are headed to coastal Georgia. Hopefully we'll find one of my quit buddies, Jawidge (George) with 2 full years behind him in his quit, waiting at the station there.  George has many interests, several of which are outdoors and even include playing the piano! George quit smoking and began running. He even took off and kept off lots of weight. Step on up here George. This is your 2 year anniversary! Make yourself comfortable – we'll be so happy to see you!

 

 

Woot woot! We are ready to ride now so settle in to have some fun. Come as you are or dress up, whatever suits your style. Let's get going!

 

This train is bound for FREEDOM from the Evils of tobacco and smoking!

Maggie, sadly I have noticed that honorees are not coming to their party lately also. .  I do not understand it.  When it is my turn, I am going to do what Shaheen does, and go drag every living thing out from under every rock, and party we shall do!  It takes so much effort, so much dedication from those of you who do the Train.every single day, even when ill.   Not to mention all the work put into the individual quits.  Celebration is a vital part of out quits, IMHO!   So where is everyone??????
