DAYS TILL THANKSGIVING: 98
DAYS TILL NOVEMBER: 72
DAYS TILL THE BERS: 11
Happy Awesome August! Today folks we move along and see that we have 98 days remaining until Thanksgiving, 72 days left until November and 11 days to go until The Bers. We move along in our Summer Sweatfest with our next milestone arriving tomorrow. It will happen on Friday with the Home Stretch till The Bers. Wow. It’s Thursday folks so time for our Thanksgiving Thought Thursday below!
Having just completed the 50-Day Preview portion of The Bers (November) today it really made me think of Thanksgiving. All the topics we talked about in November were great. But I almost feel like the non-thanksgiving topics were on a level just below the Thanksgiving Topics. I’m glad in this thread we keep Thanksgiving alive all year because so many people forget about it. And then it comes up and you realize how amazing it is after it’s too late.
4th of July is another holiday I’ve been keeping alive internally. I think we all easily keep Christmas alive thanks to MMC. I think the Hardcore Halloween fans keep it alive all year (my Sunday Group are fanatics, so we talk about it literally all year long). But Thanksgiving is the one nobody talks about as much. Have a great Awesome August!

Amen

Happy Fun Friday! Today folks we move along and see that we have 97 days remaining until Thanksgiving, 71 days left until November and 10 days to go until The Bers. We move along in our Summer Sweatfest with our next milestone arriving right now. We have reached the Home Stretch till The Bers. Can you believe that? It is true folks. Our next milestone will be Tom Turkey Day #9 and it will occur on Thursday. It’s Friday folks so time for Fun Fact Friday below!
FDR attempted to change the date of Thanksgiving
In 1939, Thanksgiving was moved to the second Thursday in November by President Franklin Delano Roosevelt. He was concerned that a shortened Christmas shopping season might impede the economic recovery his series of ‘New Deal’ reforms had been designed to address.
Though 32 states accepted the change, 16 didn’t, which resulted in Thanksgiving falling on two different days until Congress set a fixed date for Thanksgiving on 6 October 1941. They settled on the last Thursday in November.
I didn’t know that. I wonder if we pushed up Thanksgiving to say the 3rd Thursday or 2nd Thursday of November if it would make the holiday season longer, in a way? Have a great Fun Friday!

I think the last Thursday in November is perfect, but that’s because I can’t imagine it any other way. It just seems right. Just like I can’t imagine Halloween falling on any other day than October 31, or Christmas any other day than December 25.
I know Canada’s Thanksgiving does fall much earlier though. Like, before Halloween, even. I wonder what it’s like for them? MMC Canadians, let us know if you like having an earlier Thanksgiving!
Too early definitely wouldn't be good!

Happy Weekend Before Labor Day Weekend! Today folks we move along and see that we have 96 days remaining until Thanksgiving, 70 days left until November and 9 days to go until The Bers. We move along in the home stretch of our Summer Sweatfest with our next milestone arriving on Thursday with Tom Turkey Day #9. It’s Saturday folks so time for the 1st half of our Quiet Weekend Period. It should be a quiet weekend here with mostly house type stuff and a birthday party for my uncle and Friend. Turkey friends I hope your weekend gets off to a great start. The weather here has been glorious this week and I’m really enjoying it. It looks like it will be a nice weekend too. Warmer with temperatures close to 80. It feels nice out there in the mornings when we wake up with 50s and low 60s as we have experienced recently instead of waking up to 75 degrees and 100% humidity. It has been refreshing for sure, and we still have the entire Bers and Autumn Season ahead of us. Turkey friends I wish you well and say you all rule. Thank you for being here all week and continuing that trend into the weekend. The best to you my turkey friends as you journey through this quiet weekend, I hope. And the calm before the storm of The Bers. Have a great Weekend Before Labor Day Weekend!

DAYS TILL THE BERS: 8
Happy Late Summer! Today folks we move along and see that we have 95 days remaining until Thanksgiving, 69 days left until November and 8 days to go until The Bers. We move along in our Summer Sweatfest with our next milestone arriving on Thursday. It will be Tom Turkey Day #9. Wow. I remember when we celebrated our 1st Tom Turkey Day in this thread. It’s Monday folks so time for our Weekly Countdown till Thanksgiving Week. And it stands at 13 weeks. It means that we are starting the 4th quarter friends. Let that hit you today. It’s a long quarter full of amazing fall fun and lots of amazing Bers stuff we love. The best quarter for our weekly count is here and begins today. Turkey friends I hope you are enjoying the start to your week. Make the most of it. And don’t wait for The Bers to arrive to have fun. Have fun today. Make the most of it. That should be the goal every single day. And of course, keep a turkey thought in your head today. I hope you are all doing well and enjoying the start to your brand-new week. I hope you have a good start to it. I’m taking off Friday for a final 4-day break of the summer. But it’s been fun being back at work regularly too. I’m lucky I have a lot of fun each day there. Have a great Late Summer!
