Oh, it feels so great to be here at the beach! The sea breeze blowing through my hair, the smell of the salt tingling my senses, the feel of the warm sand running through my toes... it's all so wonderful! And the view is absolutely amazing! I'm never leaving this beach - well, except to go next door to the 6-12 month club in a few months.
It feels so much better to make it to the beach this time than last time because last time, I knew that it wasn't totally smoke free. I had cheated myself and while it was still awesome, and I had still earned it, this time is so much better because I did it 100% smoke free! No "slips," no "mistakes," no "just ones." It was absolutely smoke free! I hope that one day soon, I will learn to not run to cigs when I'm in a crisis. When something bad happens, that's still the first thing I think of, and I know that breaking that habit will come with time, but that's my next goal that I have set for myself.
Bogbott, thanks for sharing your hunks with me and thanks Cuddles for bringing them here. Stu, thank for your message... I'm so proud to call you my friend. Minties & Shevie, thanks for the welcome! N2k, with a warm, heartfelt message like that, how can I turn down the assignment? I know right now, you're thinking [size=4][color=red]"SUCKER!!!!!!!"[/size][/color] And yes, you're probably right. But honestly, I'd love to help with welcoming people to the beach. I know how much it meant to me, both this time and last time I came to the beach, how awesome it was to have everyone welcome me with open arms and I would be honored to be able to do that for every single person who reaches this major milestone. But the beauty of the beach is that it's not just one person who does that... everyone welcomes the new beach goers and I hope that I can still inlist your help, and everyone else here to help in doing that... at least for the next 2 weeks until you leave us and go to the 6-12 club. And I know I can still count on Cuddles and Bogbott (when her computer's not on the fritz) to help with that too. Thank you everyone for the warm welcome!
Crave the Quit!
