Good Morning, EXers and almosts!
Today in Colorado the weather is (in my book) perfect! I will be EXercizing in the great outdoors - not a stuffy gym today! :~))
In the news today is a special salute to Frank Lautenberg the 5 time Senator from New Jersey who passed away this week; a very disappointing giving in by the English N.I.C.E.; the nefarious digging in of Big Tobacco and much much more that makes me glad I'm Smoke FREE and want to protect my quit today! My wish is that this info will fortify your Quititude as well!
TODAY is a Great Day to Live Smoke FREE!
