COUNTDOWN TO THANKSGIVING 2020: 107 DAYS
COUNTDOWN TO NOVEMBER 2020: 82 DAYS
COUNTDOWN TO THE BERS 2020: 21 DAYS


Happy August Agony! Yeah it's a hot and humid week here for sure. But that's ok. I love August. Why? It's the last month before The Bers begin. And look at how close we are to it and other counts: 107 days till Thanksgiving, 82 days till November and 21 days till The Bers. 1 week from today is our next milestone as we reach the 100 Day Marker to Thanksgiving. That will be the FINAL triple digit day of any count in this thread EVER. Think about that. And you can see that 3 weeks from today is September 1 and The Bers will begin. Am I the only one who doesn't feel ready yet? At least we have 3 more weeks to prepare for it. It's going to be a fun 2020 Bers I hope. Let's all make it that way. Have a great August Agony!​

COUNTDOWN TO THANKSGIVING 2020: 106 DAYS
COUNTDOWN TO NOVEMBER 2020: 81 DAYS
COUNTDOWN TO THE BERS 2020: 20 DAYS


Happy Dozen Days of August! I see some of you are saying you're ready for The Bers. Count me in on that. It's very humid out today. It's been a hot and humid summer. But you know what? To me still it seems like summer goes faster than the other times of the year. I'm not sure why that is. Oh but let's get to our 3 counts: 106 days till Thanksgiving, 81 days till November and 20 days till The Bers. Oh yeah 6 days from now our next milestone will arrive as we reach the 100 Day Marker to Thanksgiving. How does that sound? And The Bers count is getting scary folks. 20 days remain. I see a lot of signs of it in the stores now. It won't be long and we'll be celebrating the arrival of it. Have a great Dozen Days of August!​

COUNTDOWN TO THANKSGIVING 2020: 105 DAYS
COUNTDOWN TO NOVEMBER 2020: 80 DAYS
COUNTDOWN TO THE BERS 2020: 19 DAYS


Happy August Teens! It's Thursday folks. It's OUR day of the week. Let's get right to it. We have 105 days till Thanksgiving (which translates our weekly count to 15 weeks). We have 80 days till November. And we have 19 days till The Bers. In 5 days we'll reach the 100 Day Marker to Thanksgiving. That's the final triple digits day count of this entire thread. Don't think I forgot that toady is a poll day. Here is our bi-weekly Thanksgiving Poll:
When do you get excited for Thanksgiving?
A.) November 1
B.) The Weekend Before Thanksgiving
C.) September 1
D.) I'm excited ALL YEAR LONG!
Easy one for me today as I'll go with D. If I didn't feel that way I wouldn't have started this thread. But besides that I would definitely go with A because when we reach November 1 all eyes turn to Thanksgiving. What about you?

Have a great August Teens!

I think its a combo of C&D. Sept 1st has always been a symbol to me as the start of fall/new season even though it is technically still summer. I start to get excited for the holidays.

It's definitely D. If I didn't feel that way I wouldn't be on this thread every day. ;)
But when A happens, the excitement kicks up a notch or two.
I guess you would call it a progressive excitement. It builds all year. :)

COUNTDOWN TO THANKSGIVING 2020: 104 DAYS
COUNTDOWN TO NOVEMBER 2020: 79 DAYS
COUNTDOWN TO THE BERS 2020: 18 DAYS


Happy Almost Mid-August! It's another Friday here folks. It's going to be awesome. I mean who doesn't look forward to the weekends? And thanks for all the voting you did on the poll yesterday. We are moving along with those and having fun this year. Our counts are the following: 104 days till Thanksgiving, 79 days till November and 18 days till The Bers. We are 4 days away now from our next milestone which is indeed the 100 Day Marker to Thanksgiving. How's that sound? Let's not rush the weekend ahead of us though to get to it. And The Bers count continues to drop now through the teens. Absolutely insane and I'm glad we included it in the countdown this year. Have a great Almost Mid-August!​

I'm with Rich, it is definitely D. a year round excitement, but once A. November 1 hits the excitement is unleashed and I am in my happy spot!

COUNTDOWN TO THANKSGIVING 2020: 103 DAYS
COUNTDOWN TO NOVEMBER 2020: 78 DAYS
COUNTDOWN TO THE BERS 2020: 17 DAYS


Happy End of 1st Half of August! Wow August is already almost half way over? What does that mean for our 3 counts to start this Saturday off? Let's look at them: 103 days till Thanksgiving, 78 days till November and 17 days till The Bers. In 3 days we'll reach the big 100 Day Marker to Thanksgiving. That will be our final triple digits countdown here...EVER! Rich mentioned Wednesday we will see all counts in double digits. How special will that be? We've come so far together and are really almost on the doorstep of being right where The Bers begin. I'm glad we added that countdown here because that's really as important as anything is September 1. Have a great End of 1st Half of August!​

i found kraft caramel chews in Target the other day. They last around 2-3 months and then don't come around until this time next year. This reminds me of Thanksgiving and the prequal to the fun events of Thanksgiving

They make the BEST caramel apples. And when I start making caramel apples then I really feel like fall is here.
