We haven't bought cigs in '08.  Of course, I had an emergency stash that 
we smoked up before we quit. :)  After all, if TEOTWAWKI comes, a 
smoking habit will be a weakness.
But thanks for the congrats..We planned to do this all through 2007, 
developing alternative plans and behavior mods, cutting back, saving up 
getting doctor's appointments and then buying the Chantix(insurance 
doesn't cover it-$125/mo at Rite Aid) for both of us.  The cancer thing 
threw a wrench in the plans, but only postponed things a week or so. I 
couldn't start without Ron, and we thought it best to wait until after 
his treatment course to start the Chantix.
But yeah, being able to be around to teach Jordan about the wonder of 
goats is definitely motivation, and shoot, the money I save, I can buy 
her a whole herd, a pony, and anything else she would want. :)
I also want to travel...the bug is getting me again.  I want to go back 
to Grand Teton and Rocky Mtn National Park, and this time make it up the 
trails to see the waterfalls and the lakes.  If I could do it with 
Jordan, all the better...
