Humbled

Wow, guys. Just wow.

I knew I had 900 days coming up last week, and on my computer, I use SilkQuit, which has, you know, years, months, etc., so counting days is harder. But I thought, I should get on here and blog for 900 days like the others do, because 900 is kind of awesome, and it's a bit more than three months away from QUAD SQUAD, which I am VERY EXCITED about.

But then I didn't. Time got away from me. And I was down in Charlottesville with my sister, shopping, touring UVA's campus, drinking beer, visiting with my sister's old roommate. It was a wonderful day and one completely devoid of thoughts of me smoking. Indeed, I actually can't even remember if we walked by anyone else smoking. It was really, really cold outside, so if we did, I would have felt very sad for them.

I do swing by EX everyday, but I don't always post, and I don't often get past the first page of blogs any more, and I'm a bit embarrassed to say I often skip my message board when I'm here, too! So I was surprised and happy and so touched to see a message from Shawn (whose letter I'm just about finished writing!) saying, "Check out the Freedom Train for your 900 days!"

Shucks! You guys remembered when I didn't!

So THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart. I am so grateful to everyone who supported me in my journey throughout. You guys are seriously THE BEST.

Love,

Brenda M

P.S. SilkQuit says I have: Two years, five months, two weeks, five days, 11 hours, 50 minutes and 54 seconds. 15342 cigarettes not smoked, saving $4,503.20. Life saved: 7 weeks, 4 days, 6 hours, 30 minutes.
