Membership Approved – I am joining the 6% Club

Yup – I started this journey April 2nd of last year, and here I am a year later.  It has been a bumpy ride – but I have had a lot of good company along the way.  Stac and Jules a few days ahead of me, and so many others over the past twelve months guiding the way.  (Brian, Skygirl, Joy, Nyima, Michwoman, Freedom38, Cory, Nikki, BrendaM, PattyCake, Kris, Youngatheart, NanaWendy to name a few) 

Cigarettes may travel in packs – but so do the quitters!

This site has to be way over 6% for a success rate!  Thanks to the education, cyber friendships and as Giulia calls it – the Symphony of Support.

And I look at the folks behind me that you can tell are going to make it – I was going to list names, but don’t want to jinx anyone.  (But Lois – I think this is finally your time)

Thanks to the Elders who stay on this site to help others, and all of those who may not have been quit as long but offer so much valuable advice and support.  Who would have thought we would end up with a Caravan Master?

Thanks to all.  Now for Year Two ……

Could not be happier for you, Chris!  (Symphony of Support - I like that!  You sure I said it???  I'll have to remember it so I can use it again!  lol)  I'd have to agree with you - this site has got to have  more than a 6% success rate.  The blessings for us oldbies is in celebrating and sharing  each new  gorgeous year milestone.  You have just given us all another reason to stick around.  Real proud of ya!

Chris,

You are looking beautiful in your 6% wardrobe. You wear it well. 

You obviously did well with all those bumps you came across in your first year's journey, because you are here and shouting out about it.

Congrats!!!!! Please enjoy the flowers from me to you.
