HELLO ALL QUITTERS!! In this forum being a quitter is a GOOD thing -- in fact it's a VERY GOOD thing!!! :D

Welcome Lisa to the forum. I've added your name to the quit date list (below). Although it's been a little quiet here lately, I think there are 'lurkers' out there so please share what you can about yourself and your method of quitting. Again - Congratulations on one month smoke-free. :D

Hi (((Teddie)))
If I though it was in any way "proper" :rolleyes: I would copy and paste to start this over as a roll call for 1/29/07 (1/29?? Good grief? Where is this month going?!?) but I don't want to lose any of your information.

I sorta' hope Feb. and March go as quickly because it's COLD. It's 10* here in Missouri this morning and I'd like to see some better weather.

Anyhow - I hope you're doing well and feeling good.
And I hope people who have quit, are struggling to quit or are just thinking about quitting would check in.

((jingle)) - feel free to copy and paste my posts anytime. :D

We are also in for a VERY cold spell by the end of the week. Single digits for highs and possible teens below zero for the lows. :( UGH!

Always good to 'see' you here. :)
