Good for you. I quit in 1994 when I had my last heart attack. I don't miss the cigarettes anymore.
All of my family have quit smoking except my DIL and one 18 y0 grandson. Now if we can get them
stopped. Stay with the program, it's worth it. Miz Anne says she can kiss me now without feeling
like she's kissing an ashtray. <VBG>
