Corey I'm so happy to read this, I have wondered about you! Nothing new about how I I feel about this subject of stopping smoking, but may I add a couple of thoughts?!
One: No you are not out of the woods, and will never be. If you were a dedicated smoker like me, then you are a puff away from re-dedication, pretty much always. I used to look around me when I got to wanting to smoke and visualize the room full of cartons of cigarettes. And then I would say to myself that's what I've already smoked and its enough for this lifetime, I'm lucky I'm still standing.
Amd two: I hope you can find a way to revel in the "High" of what you are accomplishing. It's not for Sissies, this quitting business, and you have a lot to be proud of. A really big and fancy feather in your cap.
Carry on!

I'm sure pleased for you guys! Taking control back from the devil is such a deliberate and forcefull activity. Many aspects of your charactor will strengthen and so will your self respect. Do you think that can effect your sign business?
