The Bonfire is now beginning

[ShawnP]

Welcome!! I have started the fire. We need you to keep this fire burning! The fire will continue til Sunday midnight wherever you may live. This is how to calculate your fuel for the fire. It is your number of days that you are smoke free  multiplied by how many that you used to smoke per day. If you need additional help, contact me. If you don't want to keep getting notifications from this post, click on actions above and uncheck following.

We usually have a standard goal of 1 million but we have exceeded this number by at least double. Let's see what we can do!!!

Omgosh yummmmmmy

[TW517]

It is a cell phone app called Smoke Free.  Most of the people I know who have it only use the free version.  I think you are far enough past those crazy first few weeks of craves, that the free version would be fine for you too.  Enjoy!

[bacardigirl]

Tossing in 11,916 - that should keep the party going for a while!

[Strudel]
