Altering Habits

Married, 2 sons - one in college, one all growed up. Live in upstate NY (the part with cows) with my wife of 27.3 years in our newly emptied nest. Generally trying to love life. Oh yeah - quit smoking Aug. 22, 2004 @ 7:00pm, but who's counting? Seem to have replaced my nicotine addiction with an obsession to work out & get healthy - even if it kills me.
