I just realized: Ten years ago today, I quit smoking.
I’m thinking by now, I’ve saved enough money to pay for my living room set, my kitchen set, and my Jeep.
The Catmage Chronicles
Andy thought he was going crazy when a talking cat showed up at his front door. He couldn’t have been more wrong.Goldeneyes is a Catmage – a cat with human intelligence and magical abilities. Andy is an eighth grader who is smart, impulsive, and trying to avoid the school bully at all costs. A prophecy threw them together. There’s just one problem: Goldeneyes can’t stand humans.The Catmage world is heading toward war. Goldeneyes and Andy must try to stop the enemy from getting stronger. And they must save a powerful Catmage who’s been kidnapped. For Goldeneyes, it’s personal. That Catmage is her grandmother.Andy and Goldeneyes must try to put aside their differences. If they can’t, the enemy will soon be too powerful to defeat…
Congratulations, Meryl. I have never smoked but I know how hard it can be to kick the habit.
Wow! I didn’t realize how expensive those ciggies were, nonsmoker here. My congratulations on beating a really nasty, difficult to beat addiction.
Well, I was paying two-something a pack when I quit. It’s up to three-something here in VA, but it’s over five bucks a pack in NJ. I smoked a carton a week. Figure an average of even the low end, $30 a week, that’s $15k in ten years. And Okay, so maybe not the Jeep for the low end. But still…. $15,000 in ten years. Yeesh.
