Congratulations @Kate18, on your great quit! Its awesome watching you celebrate year after year smoke free given how hard it was for you when you first decided to quit. You should be super proud of yourself. Thank you for sticking around to support everyone šŸ¤—

Thanks everyone!Ā  I appreciate the acknowledgement. I can hardly believe it!!!!!!!!!!!!Ā  There were so many failed starts. But, that old Covid threat -- in my mind, I was sure I'd die if I got it and I was still a smoker -- got me to quit and stay quit.Ā  And I finally did get Covid, a couple of months ago, and breezed through it.Ā  No lung issues.Ā Ā 

Ā 

Because I am saving money by not buying cigarettes, I can afford a 2nd dog to keep dog #1 company while I am at work. Gabriela joined us two months ago from a Humane Society shelter. She is reportedly 8 years old, but I suspect she is a bit younger - 5 or 6. She is so playful and frisky.Ā  She loves her stuffed squirrel (not a real one!)

Ā 

So much more we can do when we aren't spending our money on poison.Ā 

Ā 

Thanks, all.
