You
all are invited to a party hosted by Selma, Mark, Map, Harry,
Franz and Frank, our trusty advisor and me, Pat. Put on your
party hats and dancing shoes and help us celebrate one month
smobriety.
CAN
YOU BELIEVE IT? Well, I can. We are a determine lot, you know.
We
have come through so much to get here. For my part, I am blessed
by this wonderful group of quit partners. I owe them much for
listening to all the tears and the affects of the roller coaster
ride. For the rest of you out there in the newsgroup, and I
include all of you, thanks to you too. I know that this is what
this newsgroup is about, support and helping one another learn
to live without nicotine, but I couldn't have of imagined finding
the QUALITY of people that I have found here. I especially thank
my brother, QFF. Thank you for holding the space. You are courageous
indeed. I honor you for that. Thanks.
Now,
let's boogie. it's been one month and I'm a ready to dance the
night away! Tony, did you bring the malt? Dee and CJ, I'm hoping
you'll spin the tunes for us. You are so wonderful at knowing
just the right music. Evil Phil, I expect you'll be grousing
over in the corner, scaring all the ladies off, eh? Stewart,
step up and grab a partner.... if I am hearing right, I think
that's ol' Hank Sr. first up on the turntable. Jo, welcome!
I'm really glad you're here. Mel, Heather, Karolyn, Patty, Roadkill,
Tim, Connie, oh my gosh, you've all come! Yippee! Come on in.
We're having a party.
For
those of you behind us, hey, whatever it took to get here was
acceptable and proves it is doable. Hang tough with attitude.
For those of you ahead of us, thanks for the image of what we
will greet when we get to where you are. The picture of how
to remain smoke-free is invaluable.
Boogie
down, hear that fast clipping beat.....I can feel it as I whip
out onto the dance floor, feeling like I am reborn, I can breathe,
I have energy, I am feeling so good about myself for having
had the courage to get this far, I smell good and there ain't
no stopping this succulent wild woman from hitting that hot
tub not all that far down the road. Hey, I already got one month
under my belt. Thanks for travelling the road with me. I appreciate
it.
