About Me
Looking forward to a wonderful 2009. The one constant I know for sure, "nothing stays the same." ~ Two years cigarette free ~ with the help of DS and friends, and the Grace of God. Also, I pray for the willingness to lose the additional weight I have gained for better health so I can enjoy this wonderful life I have been given.

Interests
Reading, travel learning from meeting and talking with new people. Love family, animals, specifically, 'Desi, ' my Love, a 6 lb Chion who has stolen my heart away. I listen to music, talk shows, enjoy books, movies and theater. Always looking for bargains and thrift shops. I collect vintage and retro kitchen stuff, in cherry and apple red colors. I also repair and rescue many different kinds of old rag dolls. Happy raising African Violets, and so far, they seem to like me too.

Close Smoking Addiction & Recovery
Treatments
- Laughter Working / Worked
- Wow so glad for taking it light - its getting pretty intense over at Smoking Addiction - The proselytizer can really get to me - If I see the word treatment one more time I am getting Nurse Ratchetts' cap out. I peed my pants laughing about the 'funeral for the cigs' - My Irish sense of humor - well we love wakes and what a better way to get rid of the evil white cylinders - but to wake em, burn or bury and be gone. Life is short - Live and Let Live - The more I laugh - The more I use my lungs - Ree
