Hi Marie,
This is so good, I love it when we meet up again, so much by chance but I think it must be preordained!! Really, truly wonderful to "see" you.
 
To all Newbies, this is one of the bonuses of the SSC site...it seems that you can always reconnect with those who were really significant in your quit, you never totally loose contact however much time passes!!
 
Marie, thanks for your congrats and you, yourself will be in line for the same in a month's time. How far we have all come, like you say, one day at a time.
 
My reward? Well, after decades of being a passenger in cars, taxis, buses and trains, I am at last learning to drive and my reward if I manage it, is going to be my own little rust bucket!! We could not afford to be a 2 car family when I was smoking!! I shall have to get a hook to fix my bike on to it though....I just love cycling, yet another thing that I didn't have the wind power to do when I was smoking. And I swear that the cycling was the thing that got rid of the last few pounds of excess baggage I was carrying around.
 
I'd like to thank everyone for their good wishes, most of you don't know who on earth I am...I'm just another one of you all, nothing remarkable, no special skills but just an determination to quit the addiction and like they say......"If I can do it...."   and like Marie says "one day at a time".
 
Love you lots Marie, can't thank you enough for your ongoing support and friendship. Best regards, Lilly

Hi everyone and thank you so much for your good wishes. I can't help thinking about this time last year and I'm so grateful to be here now!! Cobanfan...I'm with you on the reward system, it's been one of my principle reinforcers, I'll have to think of something really good. Riverdaleman...very nice to speak to you again, what a year it has been. Hope your swimming is still going strong and where are you planning to holiday this year? Best regards Phillip, from Paula. Penitent...This is the Time and the Place for May Company...all this month we're celebrating, and your own very special milestone coming up very soon!! Lady...Thank you and yes, one year does feel brilliant and as Penitent advises, I'm now moving on to the second! Marie...So good to hear from you, I hope all is going well. This time last year I was definitely "one day at a time" and it worked! Big celebration for you too next month! Keep well everyone and enjoy the freedom, Best regards, Lilly :) [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 5/11/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 366 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 11,001 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] �1830 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 47 [B]Hrs:[/B] 22 [B]Mins:[/B] 54 [B]Seconds:[/B] 50
