Tomorrow will mark the twenty-eighth year since I last smoked a cigarette! I'm SO glad I did. I don't need them to complicate my other health problems. I quit in 1982 when I thought 65 cents a pack was expensive, and now, what, close to $6.00 a pack? I certainly don't need them!!

Here in NJ they're $8 a pack :eek: Congratulations :) That really is a big accomplishment. That's just about when my parents quit smoking too.

Do you have any idea how many years you've added to your life, having stopped smoking?? You're gonna live forever, dude!!

Good job! I smoked for maybe three years and the ill effects from even that short of time and how little I smoked (a pack a week on average) made me so miserable I had to quit! Also I was sooo tired of paying so much for a habit that made me smell bad :p
*hugs* and *highfives* to you!

Congrats!!
Being a former smoker myself I know how hard it is to quit, millions can't. Blessings to you.

BTW, I just realized something. Due to the no smoking ban here at Concordia, it'll be very difficult for me to start up again, which is a very good thing!
