Hi everyone, Another story about how good life is when you don't smoke. Here in The Netherlands our cars have to get a check up every year. Today I had to go there. There was a waitingroom and that's where I had a cup of coffee. I just sat there and thought about last year, when I still was a smoker. How convenient is life as a non smoker. I had to wait for almost 2 hours and I didn't care....lol. I watched the people who smoke cause they go in and out the room all the time. Did I mention that you can smell them too??? LOL. Another good thing is the moneything. Normaly I was scared if they found something which had to be repaired. At the end of the month I was a little short on money. Not anymore.....I am not afraid of the end of the month. I have always money now. So, that's my positive story of the day. I wish you all the best and I'm glad to know you guys. Good luck and good health to all the brave quiters all over the world.

Our family has come upon some rough times here recently. My husband's company was bought by another company and my husband's position was eliminated. I am grateful that we do not smoke anymore. That is money would not have otherwise and really need it right now.
