I am going to go with B. If I am home on a Sunday afternoon, or the Bears are playing on Monday night I like to tune in and watch a game but I definitely don't schedule around watching the games.
 
DAYS TILL THANKSGIVING: 203
DAYS TILL NOVEMBER: 181
DAYS TILL THE BERS: 120


Happy May The 4th Be With You! Today folks we have 203 days remaining until Thanksgiving, 181 days to go until November, and 120 days left until The Bers. Our next milestone will be on Sunday. It will be a significant one as we will reach the 200-Day Marker Till Thanksgiving. That will be the final time we have a 2’s count in this thread. We move along in our Super Spring with our Thanksgiving Thought Thursday below!

We don’t talk about this much but when it comes to Thanksgiving Day do you even get dressed? Do you wear sweats and slippers all day? Do you get dressed up in simple jeans/tshirts. Or do you get really dressed up? Maybe I should have made this a poll but it’s just really more of a “thought” because I’m betting most people don’t dress up for it and that’s one nice thing about it. I like wearing comfy clothes that day.

No matter what you wear on Thanksgiving all that matters is the people you are with and the traditions/fun stuff you’re doing. I’m looking forward to the NFL schedule folks. First thing I look at immediately is the NFL Games on Thanksgiving Day. It should be 1 week from today. Have a great May The 4th Be With You!​
 
I'm a guy who pretty much wears jeans and a T-shirt all year round, so Thanksgiving is no different. One year, we had a "formal" Thanksgiving dinner where we were more dressed up, and we did it to see if it would be part of a new tradition for us, but it didn't really catch on, and everybody was much more comfortable in "regular" clothes.

That NFL schedule coming out next week is going to be a big jolt of Thanksgiving feels!

Have a great day!
 
My Thanksgiving Day uniform is fleece pajama bottoms and a t-shirt. We stay comfortable all day.

Although, I may consider getting these for the day.

I hate dressing up. I luckily don't have to for work. On the holidays i wear my usually comfy pants(sports pants), tea shirt, and a hoodie when needed.

My family jokes that they haven't seen me even in jeans in years. Lol. I do have two weddings this year so i am going to have to bring out some formal wear and most likely will need a shopping trip because of my weight loss the last two years.
 
For Thanksgiving, we always dress up a little bit. No ties, but dressier than jeans. I always wear a dress. But that is partly because I love dresses. And some of it is the practical side of me--I worked for 15 years at a place where women had to wear dresses so I have all of these nice dresses that need to be worn. LOL.

I am glad you wear them and am feeling some regret. I used to wear at least one dress and one skirt each week for years and I actually enjoyed the routine and truly the ease of wearing a dress, but since COVID we have not returned to the same standards and I have given many of them away. I kept more skirts than dresses, but even those may not make the next closet clear out.
 
DAYS TILL THANKSGIVING: 202
DAYS TILL NOVEMBER: 180
DAYS TILL THE BERS: 119


Happy Cinco De Mayo! Today folks we have 202 days remaining until Thanksgiving, 180 days to go until November, and 119 days left until The Bers. Our next milestone will be on Sunday (the 2nd half of our weekend). It will be the 200-Day Marker Till Thanksgiving. But folks today starts our weekend in this thread 3-day style with some quieter times after a busy 4-day stretch. Our Super Spring continues to progress. It is moving along now here in the first week of May heading towards another weekend. But fear not because we have a few more weeks still left of it. I won’t talk about what comes after that but you all know I love that time of year. Through every ounce of sweat lol. Sorry CW I’ll still take sweating over freezing…well if my a/c works at least to sleep cool. Turkey fans I hope you’re all enjoying your week. We’re moving towards the weekend here in spring. And I hope all of you are ready to enjoy your time when it comes. But for now folks you all enjoy your TGIF style. It should be a good one I hope. And next week folks NFL SCHEDULES! One of my favorite non-sports sports activity of the year. Just love seeing it come out and of course looking right at Thanksgiving for those games. Keep it going turkey fans and you all enjoy your time. Have a great Cinco De Mayo!​

Sub-business casual had taken over the world. It seems fewer and fewer places require people to dress in anything but what we used to call "grubbies" when I was a kid--the things that we used to change in to to keep our school clothes nice. I had some business as the court which used to be the last bastion of dressing up. The courteous and competent woman who helped me was dressed in ripped jeans, sneakers that looked like they had been involved in some recent gardening, a t-shirt for an acid rock band and a hoody with bleach streaks all down the front. The woman sitting next to her was wearing pajama pants.
 
I figured people would still bring out their best for a job interview but in the last few weeks there have been a number of people coming in and out wearing things that I do not think represent "the job they want to have". Just for fun, @LadyLynn can you remember what you wore to your first big interview? I wore a navy dress with abalone shell buttons and a lace Peter Pan collar, navy hose and pumps. I wish I had a picture of me wearing it!

I have not interviewed for a job in years. For my last promotion and my last hire, they sought me out so I lucked out, but my first grown up interview was a gray suit with a blue silk blouse, hose and heels. Totally felt like a grown up. I don't think people dress for the next job they want anymore.
