Smoke free.

Well today I quit smoking. I had smoked this time since 1994 and had recently gotten up to 2.5 - 3 packs a day. A lot of the time the cigarettes just burned up while I was on the computer.... but that was all money up in smoke... literally.

So I planned it out... I got a deal on Nicorette and I told the husband that we need to quit. He's going on this ride too...
Last night... well this morning at 2:30am I stubbed out my last cigarette and went to sleep... Today has been not too bad actually. I… Continue

A Good Surprise in the Mail today.

Thanks for the nice comment about my cat. His name is Stosh and he's 3 yrs old. Apparently he came from a home with 30 other cats. When we first got him he hid for 3 wks. in our crawl space. Now he's out all the time and loves to play with the two dogs.

Hey Syliva, Birds beaks is better name than the one I learned - shooting stars. I love them too. Just wasn't ready to post a photo and thought they'd be a good stand-in. But hey, I just bought a new camera and I guess it's time to add a few pictures. Or not.

I'm happy to join. You never know what helpful hints others may have! But, unfortunately, the coupons/offers wouldn't be any good here in the Great White North (although Spring has sprung). Thanks Carol
