Reviving this thread is getting to be a habit! LOL

Actually, I forgot it was my anniversary. I was listening to the reports of stranded travellers and remembered the last time I was stuck on the road...It's been three years already!

Status report:
Still no nicotene.
I did go up a couple belt sizes, finally grew an *** to put behind my work.
Don't miss smoking, don't miss coughing and hacking all the time.
I'm less tolerant of any smoke.

See Y'all next year!

I'll drink to that!
(hick-up)

I made myself a promise - I can't smoke till I'm 80 years old, (getting closer day by day- and I'm fighting it!) and God willing - I will be smart enough by then to keep off them at least till I'm 100



I am watching my father pay the price for his smoking - he's on O2, can't breathe and doesn't get to enjoy life, the way he should be. On the bright side, he has a good woman with him and he too is tobacco free finally.

Congrats Hypoid - your doing GREAT!

Keep the shinny side up!

Four years, WOO-HOO!!!!

Just felt like blowin my horn.

My cranky old boss quit about a year after I did. I guess he had no excuse if a slacker like me can do it. He is easier to get along with, so am I.

I couldn't remember how long ago I quit, so I found this old thread. Six years!

I still hate the smoke, it smells like a damn chemical fire. I hear they started treating the paper so it will self-extinguish.

I work for an oxygen company, and I have never wanted to smoke ever, but working with these people is more than reason enough to back my decision! Old thread, but nice work!

Strong? More like chicken****! I don't want to go through that crap again, EVER!

As positive reinforcers, I really like not getting respiratory crud all the time, and geting over it quicker when I do. Not to mention the extra money I can spend on gas, or tools, or....
