I am still here. I made it through my first year today. It's been really rough these past few months because my life has been kind of chaotic. Finacially touch and go. High anxiety. But I have made it! It is the one thing right now that has meaning to me and yet still so fragile. I'm hoping things change for me, financially, this fall.
I hope that everyone is doing well.

Damn, buddy! One year is fantastic. It's tough out there for a lot of people, but you've got a big reason to celebrate today. Kicking that nicotine addiction in the teeth is a wonderful thing.

Congratulations!!! I know what you mean about up's and down's... Both my mothers (inlaw and maternal) are dying of cancer and it is hard. Plus we have $ problems. If we smoke again then we just add another burden to our hearts. Stay quit. These few days have been hard for me and coming on here and seeing you hangin tough helps me!~ I have 336 days or something like that. Hang with. Onward, thru the fog!
