Happy Canada Day on July 1rst for our Canadian friends!

Canada Day (FrenchFête du Canada) is the national day of Canada, a federal statutory holiday celebrating the anniversary of the July 1, 1867, enactment of the Constitution Act, 1867 (then called the British North America Act, 1867), which united three colonies into a single country called Canada within the British Empire.[1][2][3] Originally called Dominion Day (FrenchLe Jour de la Confédération), the holiday was renamed in 1982, the year the Canada Act was passed.

I pledge NOT to smoke today.  Day 62

Waiting for a gal to come for a light lunch.  She is a smoker but knows I quit.

If she wants to smoke she will have to go outside on the screened porch for her fix. It is hot as you know what out there - so I will not join her in the heat. To think I would sit out in that heat (I live in Key West Fl) many many hours before I quit.

This gal has quit many times so I know she admires my quit.

I am very pleased with myself.

Hugs
