Just one day later! ...Beautiful parallel, Erik-Jan. Just one day later! and Val one day after that.<BR/>A pneumonia is a good motivator to quit, I imagine.<BR/>Must say it is a relief not to be caught in that viscious circle any more. The yearning for a smoke is now down to a few seconds every other day or less.<BR/>People say I have never looked better, but I'd like to get rid of a few pounds that sit where a flat belly used to be.<BR/><BR/>PTfan<BR/>Never been so happy as in this period, especially the last few months, after the Basement Jam.<BR/><BR/>Thanks and congratulations for you too, Anne-Marie. Twenty years, beautiful.<BR/>The hardest thing and then when you look back...<BR/><BR/>Clever Dale<BR/>You use my way of reasoning, so now it is my turn to suggest that it was meant to be ;-)<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the congratulations, James!<BR/><BR/>Mary Beth, as the saying goes, being paranoid does not mean you are not being followed.<BR/>April? Both Waco and Oklahoma City happened on April the 19th.<BR/><BR/>Hi Michael,<BR/>I don't have much experience in the quitting field, but I was always convinced that a few days of confinement, voluntary or involuntary, could help me break the smoke spell. And it did.<BR/>I'm so glad to hear you left the real dangerous stuff behind you. Now I don't know what more to say about smoking - or I do, but that would exceed the space and time of this blog.<BR/>Would be fun to see a Dutch barge in Cape Coral!<BR/><BR/>Love<BR/>Koos<BR/>PS<BR/>If I don't get around to blogging tomorrow, I'll be off to South Africa with VallyP, so see you all around April 10th.Koos Fhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07721221805692321011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16946298.post-1143677431640256242006-03-29T16:10:00.000-08:002006-03-29T16:10:00.000-08:00Koos Im so proud of you.

All on the same day or the same day each month? I have a thing with Tuesdays and April - weird things seem to happen to me on Tuesdays and in April. *L* Maybe I'm just paranoid...!Mary Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07069329320173103517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16946298.post-1143652162530032552006-03-29T09:09:00.000-08:002006-03-29T09:09:00.000-08:00Whatever the reasons, congratulations, Koos.Whatever the reasons, congratulations, Koos.James Caseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05930767947864770938noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16946298.post-1143639437870101722006-03-29T05:37:00.000-08:002006-03-29T05:37:00.000-08:00Hi KoosToday is my sister's 45th birthday!Congratu...Hi Koos<BR/><BR/>Today is my sister's 45th birthday!<BR/><BR/>Congratulations for quitting smoking for over a year now!<BR/>My husband quit about 12 years ago & has never looked back. He says it was the best decision he ever made. And me... well, I never smoked, thank goodness.<BR/><BR/>I hope your heart has been healthy since, Koos.<BR/><BR/>Maybe there is a connection, or just coincidence.<BR/>We only have so many days in a year, so it's a 365:1 chance that it will happen on the same day!<BR/><BR/>How's that for scientific vs phylosophical...<BR/><BR/>Love<BR/>DaleDalehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05390048543612668055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16946298.post-1143638078674475042006-03-29T05:14:00.000-08:002006-03-29T05:14:00.000-08:00Hi Koos,Happy anniversary and congrats on achievin...Hi Koos,<BR/>Happy anniversary and congrats on achieving this goal. I quit smoking on January 2nd, 1986, so it's a distant memory, but I'll bet you feel so much better these days as a result. It was the hardest thing I ever did, but the most rewarding.<BR/><BR/>Cheers,<BR/>AMAnne-Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05960236584908811801noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16946298.post-1143632522298733372006-03-29T03:42:00.000-08:002006-03-29T03:42:00.000-08:00I do believe there is a connection! : ) Great job...I do believe there is a connection! : ) Great job!

How does it make you feel?<BR/>I also went to hospital with a bad pneumonia at the time. When I was released 12 days later I thought it wouldn't be a good idea to start smoking again. So everything turned out fine.<BR/>Erik-Jan.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
