You know what? I'm glad someone is keeping up with this. I would have never realized it has been 2 months had you not mentioned it. THANKS. It seems like just yesterday and at the same time like a life time ago. Thanks to you and everyone for taking the time to care and encourage. One of the things that has helped is I do not have any idle time. From 4am to 10pm I am on the go nonstop. Or at least it seems that way. I was just speaking to a friend of mine here at work and told him I need 2 weeks on a deserted island in the South Pacific. No mail, no computer, no cell phone. But who has time to make the travel arrangements? Not me. Being single and having a big home and lots of animals just keeps me going all the time. But, I guess I would not have it any other way. At least I don't have to stop every 30 minutes to smoke a cigarette. Quiting has added 2-1/2 to 3 hours of productive time to my day and about $230.00 an month to my pocket. Besides that I get more done simply because I can breath better, don't get tired as easily and really have reached the point where I don't even notice that I am not smoking. Along with the quiting, I have continued to loose weight which is helping me feel better and get more done also. Life is truly beginning to turn around and head in a positive, productive, meaningful and just plain happy direction. I owe much of my sucess to you and the others who have stood by with encouragement, helpful hints and friendship. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!!! LOLxxxooo
