[...] I want all of those nasty stats to drop by one! That’s why I am giving a “Shout Out” to Ruby Red Shoes over at New Year’s Resolutions Blog. Ruby is a grandmother. She became a grandmother “late” in life, as she puts it. She has been smoking for years. She is, unwillingly in love with the Marlboro Man. He is a rugged guy, not my type, but I can see how some girls like him. Ruby has tried to quit on at least three occasions. The damn things have her by the uh, oops, I mean she is addicted to them.

Tomorrow is “Q Day”!!! I’ve decided I have cut down as much as I am going to and that it is time to Quit! Keep your fingers crossed for me, as I am not using any aid at this point.

Meg is my daughter. Poor kid, she doesn’t stand a chance. I thought my husband wrote that post! He does the exact same thing and trust me, it is annoying!

Good luck with the resolution, Meg. Feel free to write your own post if you want. Thanks for stopping in.

My DIL is doing great - she is on her fourth day of cold turkey with the help of the patch. Go Chrissy!

Thanks, Matthew. I will definitely go over to visit Antman. I am new to all of this too - I guess we’ll learn it together!

I think I might have a resolution of my own…As silly as it sounds, I can’t stop flipping through channels on the TV. I get watching something that interests me, and then the wonderful world of commercials hit. I HATE commercials. I flip around until I find another program that grabs my interest, so I start watching that, then forget that I was watching something on another channel. I don’t mind it so much, except when I miss something good, but it drives my partner absolutely nuts!! So… instead of watching one full show, I end up watching bits and pieces of many and end up not really knowing what’s going on with any show. Again, not so frustrating for me, but others HATE watching TV with me. This is something I will try to work on as best as I can.

A BIG THANKS!! To everyone that has stopped by to show encouragement for Rubyredshoes. I’m sure she really appreciates the support. Melissa… good luck cutting back on the boob tube. It’s so easy to get sucked in!!

Ruby:
Look on the Antman’s blog for my comments of support. I’m new at this, so I put them on his site. However, they are sincerely meant. LOL, Matthew

Hi Ruby,
I just found your site from my buddy Antman. As a personal trainer heart says “Go For It”, and I wish you the best of luck. As a dad and a husband, I can only imagine how much better you will feel, and how much stronger, and longer you will be around to enjoy your family.

Good luck!
Coop
