It is going to be hot and humid this weekend.
I was speaking to a man this morning who is dreading the weekend weather. He said he can’t breath when the air is heavy and full.
I do feel badly for him. However, the main part of me is smiling broadly at the forecast that is sunny and gorgeous until next week.
Happy Birthday to You
Yesterday, July 1, was Canada’s birthday.
Our great nation turned 143 years old and the Queen was on Parliament Hill in Ottawa, Ontario, the nation’s capital, to help celebrate it.
I like the royal family.
I know many Canadians think it’s time to sever our ties to England, but I like the history of it and say they should continue to be the head of our country.
Long Weekends
And because yesterday was a holiday, many people are taking today off to have an extra-long long weekend.
For me, it made my commute in a breeze.
I heard some people are suggesting we start celebrating Canada Day on the first Monday of July regardless if it’s July 1 or not.
Ridiculous.
You don’t celebrate your birthday on a Friday or a Monday because you want more time off, you celebrate it the actually day of your birth.
I like having a day off mid-week. And any day you can take off in the summer is a great day.
Happy July 4
Happy Independence Day to anyone who celebrates it.

I hope you had a fantastic Canada Day!
Hi there! Dropping in from the blog party. Mid week holidays are the best!
Re: the royal family. I was one of those girls who adored Princess Diana. I had Princess Di coffee table books, collector's items, and even a paper doll book! It's hard to believe she was only a bit older than me when she passed away...
I am totally with you on everything except the weather. I'm not so fond of the heavy, hot, days but that's likely because I have those types of days often all year round.
Happy Belated Canada Day!
Cheers :-)

I'm with you. Keep it to the day, not the day of the week. And I have always wanted to meet the Queen, ever since I was a very, very young and would read about Princess Anne, and Elizabeth. Happy Canada Day! Dropping by for them party too.
Happy Canada Day! (+1)
I hope that you had a great Canada Day. I also like the history of the royal family.
Happy Canada Day! I was lucky enough to be up there a few times on Canada Day, you guys sure know how to throw a party. Enjoy the heat.
