I am very happy for you!  I do have to ask a question or two.  In your part of the world, how much is a pack of smokes?  I have never smoked.  But back in high school, I was a cashier at a big chain store out here, and cigarettes were 99 cents back in 1979.  How much are they now?  I know it is quite expensive here in Washington.  I know a lot of that is tax.  I am thinking that over here they might be $8 a pack.  But whatever the price, I am thinking that is way too much money to literally and figuratively burn up!  So I am happy for your health and pocketbook!

Congratulations!  My better half has over 45 days in of a smoke free life thanks to Chantix.  I'm really proud of her but it makes me feel even worse every time I light one up.  I've tried to quit, I actually had about three weeks of cold turkey completed when I started back up.  Because of other prescriptions I take, I'm not a candidate for Chantix.

I guess I'll just have to work harder at it.
