 WOW! Your actual date went past without anyone knowing, but it's never to late to offer congratulations. What a wonderful milestone! There may be others who hit the big 1-0, but I don't know who. Dot

Thanks, Dot, Ann, and Slim!!!
I went to a (work related) seminar last week in Sedona, Arizona. I had never been there before and it was absolutely beautiful. Then on to Santa Fe for a couple days ~ very relaxing! It made me realize that we need to take some mini-vacations from time to time to get re-charged. It's so much easier to travel when you don't smoke.
I always wondered what it would feel like to be smoke free for 10 years. And I must say it's wonderful. I strongly recommend quitting to anyone who's still smoking. It's just a matter of putting one foot in front of the other and, of course, some determination. Truly, if I can quit, anybody can quit.
Congratulations to everyone at Smokebusters on each milestone achieved, both new members and old members. It's so great to see everyone succeeding and it's also great to see people get back on the wagon after a slip. God bless you all.
Vanessa
p.s. Hi robyn, Kathleen, and MK. Great to see you all again.

Yikes! 10 years....
Congratulations Vanessa.....me thinks you're the first (who stays in touch) to reach the 10 year mark. Guess it's time to start the second ten year march.
P.S. Do you have any of the 25G's you've saved?
