1351 days and counting the Dollars and no doubt extra days on the planet. I have enjoyed tossing some of the $30000 saved into my mortgages and some on trips, shoes, clothes and expensive bling. Besides, anything I spend is pretty much what would have been in an ash tray. I call it Ash Money. Much less stress when there is money in the bank. I wonder how many on this site feel stress pangs becaus...

I quit because I had to have major abdominal surgery. I spent 9 days in the hospital so I couldn't smoke. I wasn't about to go back to it when I was discharged. I look at my 10 in scar and know that I can't smoke again.

One of the most pervasive aspects of smoking is the smell., and how it gets in everything in your home. As a smoker you tend to scoff at the "Passive smoking" effect, but on giving up you quickly realise when walking past someone smoking how it stinks.  It takes many many washes of all the clothes in your possession and a lot of Glen 20 at home on bedding, curtains and the like and things l...

Just in time they have changed the categories to money and family. I am torn between working part-time as a waitress and retiring. My kids seem to spend any extra money, whereas i have had hard times in earlier years and tend to be a saver. I do help my kids by enabling them to raise their kids in by house for nominal rent... meaning it pays mine elsewhere. Liberal gov. does not give me any inc...

I never thought I would become a smoker, but I did. I started 9 years ago and I've tried to quit so many times. I just hope I can stick to it this time. This time I have more reasons, this time I'm doing it for me, not because someone told me to. I'm quitting because I want to start a family soon, and I don't want to go into parenthood still smoking. I'm quitting because I'm so sick of waki...
