Thank you all for your super responses.

Ashley – rewards are SO IMPORTANT at the beginning and during the first 2 years of your quit, but I don’t feel the need any more. Every day is a celebration now – I am so relieved to be free and I am thankful every day to this site for getting me through the bad bits.

Hi Dan –I remember you when you joined and look at us now!  Woo Hoo!

Hi Sparky – you are doing great girl....I have a good feeling about your final quit.

Lovely to see you Cameless  – past your 5 year milestone already – great job.

Hi Willis – 2 years plus is a GREAT place to be! Well done you!

So Jim, do you think I have enough to buy an original Chihuly yet?  I think I probably do....but the dog would just knock it over.

Working on it – you are SO CLOSE to that big milestone – this is where rewards really do matter – I hope you have something good planned.

And Lolly – look at us now!  Wooo HOOO!
Lovely to catch up with you all - it's been too long

Congratulations Lizzie  Excellent for you. And rightly so you should smile to yourself. Take 365 days one day at a time for the past ten years , throw in a few leap years and that adds up to amazing. Sounds like today is your day. breather Don

Congratulations on 10 years smoke free Lizzie!
 
Wow! How will you celebrate?
 
What can you tell to new quitters? How did you make it to 10 years?

The best decision I ever made.
 
I mentioned my 10 year quit to friends this morning and they did not find it noteworthy.  I smile to myself knowing that only a smoker/ex-smoker understands the significance of what it is to be free of this addiction.
 
So have a great day everyone...and the sun is shining.
 
Lizzie
