You have a wonderful list! Mine is pretty good too 🙂

1. I don't want to EVER have another stroke!!!

2. I don't want to lose a limb or have more health issues due to my vascular disease. Especially since I know that nicotine shrinks the arteries. 

3. I want to be here for my children and grandchildren. They need their wise old MiMi and her warm hugs and kisses.

4.I still have so many places to go and so many things to do before I leave this earth!

5. I can't afford to be wasting my money! I could have bought a house, with a swimming pool, if I hadn't burned the money up in smokes. 

6. I sure can't tell my grands not to smoke if I do.

7. I want to be able to hold my grandchildren without causing them to have a asthma attack or making them stink.

8. I like my mouth and body smelling clean and pretty.

But my number 1 reason........I don't want to look like this:

"No dear, really!
