Reflecting over the past year......

I must first say I am so glad this first year is behind me! But I couldn't have made it to day 365 without all of you & this very supportive site. I really count on my family here & you have not let me down. Having quit years ago for 9 years, I knew if I hung in there, I could do it again this time!  I HAVE made it thru this 1st year with many trials, tribulations & insecurities. Sometimes thinking  that I might not be able to see it thru to the finish line. I look forward now to my 2nd year being smoke free & am confident I will stay committed. Realizing, though, it will take vigilance each & every day. I believe I understand but will keep learning how to ward off the addiction & stay true to myself. Because, at the end of the day, that's who I need to answer to!

Recently retired from my own landscape business. Native Floridian, born in Sarasota FL. I do not act my age nor do I feel it. Smoking was a major part of my life until I found this site 4 years ago. Quit 4 years ago & I will never go back to it! My husband & I quit at the same time, not only for ourselves, but for our 2 grown sons & up & coming grandchildren. Neither of our sons ever smoked & we are so proud of them. Love being outdoors, boating, fishing, water skiing, hiking. Love college football & some pro football. Live for my family.
