Don't let the nico-demon trick you, treat him with a great big SWAT! Stay Strong with a Daily Pledge!

Hello,

October is upon us! Soon we will be having frosty weather, some looking forward to it some not. Remember no matter what N.O.P.E. There is never a good reason/excuse to smoke! Stay strong, come here and make your daily pledge not to smoke!

I want to thank Cindy for all of her help and her 30-day challenge during September and all of you loyal pledgers for keeping you, me and many others lifted up and strong in our quits! Our most successful month in my 452 days! Stay Free xo    ~Terrie~

    Rosh Hashanah

        
         
          Rosh Hashanah is the Jewish New Year. The biblical name for this holiday is Yom Teruah, literally "day shouting/blasting", sometimes translated as the Feast of Trumpets. It is the first of the Jewish High Holy Days specified by Leviticus 23:23–32, which usually occur in the early autumn of the Northern Hemisphere.

Halloween activities include trick-or-treating, attending Halloween costume parties, decorating, carving pumpkins into jack-o'-lanterns, lighting bonfiresapple bobbing and divination games, playing pranks, visiting haunted attractions, telling scary stories and watching horror films. In many parts of the world, the Christian religious observances of All Hallows' Eve, including attending church services and lighting candles on the graves of the dead, remain popular,[20][21][22] although elsewhere it is a more commercial and secular celebration.[23][24][25] Some Christians historically abstained from meat on All Hallows' Eve,[26][27] a tradition reflected in the eating of certain foods on this vigil day, including applespotato pancakes, and soul cakes.
