Duckie, Welcome to the wonderful world of quit. It is a journey unlike any other. It just keeps getting better and better and better. You are on your way to developing a new "me". It is an exciting time. Enjoy it. Don't let it get you down.

Hi, Duckie. Glasses were a reward for me, too. I didn't realize it at the time, though. I've aways used the cheap $10 drug store reading glasses because I would carry them in my shirt pocket along with my cigs. Because the cigs took up most of the space, there was no room for a case, so they got all scratched up rather quickly. Especially when they'd fall out onto the concrete. After I'd quit smoking there was all this space in my shirt pocket, plenty of room for a glasses case. So I got a fancy set of glasses with the progressive lenses so I can focus from up close to far away just by tilting my head. Now at work I'm not having to put them on and off so much since I can now do things with them that I used to have to use the microscope for. Much better! :) Today I got John Mellencamp and Joan Baez CDs. (See, I do practice what I preach) Shevie [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 5/23/2005 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 333 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 6,660 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $1265.4 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 62 [B]Hrs:[/B] 2 [B]Mins:[/B] 5 [B]Seconds:[/B] 58

Duckie, Rewards are essential for one's quit! You can use them as a goal to look forward too. Make sure you save the big one for the grand milestones, such as one year or 6 months. It can make a difference :) Keep Strong, Josie ______________________ The SSC Support Team.

This is a great way to acknowledge your quit Duckie :). We have to make quitting smoking fun. Rewarding yourself is a great way to stay positive while you continue your quit! Great thread Duckie! Melanie _____________________ The SSC Support Team
