Let’s start thinking about them people. I’ve been thinking and talking about my New Years Resolutions for about 2 months now. After 19 years of using Smokeless Tobacco, I’m going to quit. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="images/icons/shocked.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[Teary]" title="" src="graemlins/teary.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="images/icons/shocked.gif" /> I quit once before for like 6 months, gained 50 pounds and was pretty much miserable. Anyway, I’m getting people together who are kicking cigarette’s and we making wagers on who will last. Some of the wagers are pretty outrageous. In preparation for the upcoming event, today I started the cut back. If anyone wants to join me in kicking a bad habit, we can support and encourage each other.

Actually my 1st thought was to give up SEX but then I realized that I must of given that up last year. Maybe I'll make a resolution to have sex this year...... With a woman.

Geez, you guys are WAY to organized to be making New Years resolutions already - I don't even have the first Christmas present wrapped!! Well giving up sex is a given, so let's see....I'm with you Jo, Starbucks is my 1st food group, so that's out...maybe my little honey flavored cigars?? Hmmm, let me think on that one....

I firmly resolve to leave the convent of the Blessed Celibate Sisterhood in 03. Halleluia! I resolve to not skip aerobics and look better and better. I resolve to make Deucey smolder with jealousy when he sees me and my new single self. I resolve to have dates this year and am going to save up for a cruise for son and myself. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />

Bill,
I would like to join you but at this time I am not that strong.... I do need to keep sane right???? Yah.... just another thing controlling my life right... but at least it doesn't cheat, lie and just get up and leave......I have quit smoking before about 1 year ago but stress seems to be issues and linking me back to the old habit. Maybe, no...I will give up my dependency on my H,......and learn to live on my own and know that I can do it...I have been doing it whether he is here or not.......
