DAYS TILL THANKSGIVING: 188
DAYS TILL NOVEMBER: 162
DAYS TILL THE BERS: 101

Happy Holiday TGIF! Today folks we move along and see that we have 188 days remaining until Thanksgiving, 162 days left until November, and 101 days to go until The Bers. We move along in our Stress-Free Spring on our final day with our next milestone arriving tomorrow. It will be the 100-Day Marker till The Bers. It’s going to be huge folks. I mean huge. It will be the biggest and best milestone we’ll see all year. And then we’ll enter our Summer Sweatfest. 100 long days of summer but not all of them will be sweaty hopefully. We move along on this Fun Fact Friday with our fact for today below!

Turkeys have better vision than you.

Do you think you have pretty good vision? Turkeys have even better eyes. They can see three times better than a human with perfect 20/20 vision, according to the National Audubon Society.

My eyesight is not good. I wear contacts (and glasses as backup). I’m jealous of people who have good vision but even people with good vision can’t compare with a turkey. But on Thanksgiving my vision feels 20/20 when I see that delicious meal on the table. It looks so tasty and so awesome. Have a great Holiday TGIF!​

Tom looks so dapper!

I do not have good vision…at all. If not for my glasses I’d be almost blind. And my glasses have what you’d call “Coke bottle lenses,” meaning that they are so thick that they look like the glass on the bottom of soda bottles. I’d wear contacts, but since my job consists of staring at Excel spreadsheets almost 8 hours a day, contacts don’t hold up to the strain very well.

Contacts was one of the best changes I made many years ago...for me it worked out perfectly! I've worn them for 12 years without any issue at all every single day!

Happy milestone eve! You guys know I would never miss the eve of the 100 Days to the Bers!

Holly and Jason are doing excellent. They believe we will go home tomorrow. I don’t want to count my chickens before they hatch but I cannot ignore the significance of possibly being discharged on milestone day, after basically knowing for close to 9 months that “The Road” would hopefully be my victory over the hardest fight in my life.

I love you all, and I hope you are all well. Please keep us in your prayers that we go home tomorrow.

I was driving home from my brother's house a week or so ago and there was a hard of wild turkeys playing in the road. Musta been a sign that it is time to think about Thanksgiving.

DAYS TILL THANKSGIVING: 187
DAYS TILL NOVEMBER: 161
DAYS TILL THE BERS: 100

Happy Memorial Day Weekend! Today folks we move along and see that we have 187 days remaining until Thanksgiving, 161 days left until November and 100 days to go until The Bers. We have reached the biggest milestone in this thread. It is the 100-Day Marker till The Bers. We enter the Summer Sweatfest portion of our thread, and it starts off on a cool note here. Enjoy the cooler ones while we can. But turkey friends we are here. It’s amazing on this Saturday as we enter the 1st half of our Quiet Weekend Period that we are truly just taking our first step on the long road back home to The Bers. That’s what today represents to a lot of us and it’s a very exciting thing. The road may seem long (and it is) but it’s a fun long road and it no longer seems like a total dream as it did back in January. Turkey friends we are Halfway till the Weekend Before Thanksgiving also today. Can you believe that? Such an amazing time of year and how everything mirrors each other is amazing. I hope you are all doing well and enjoying the start of your long weekend. Turkey friends I hope you are doing well and that you will enjoy your summer as much as you can. I love summer. I try to get the most out of each season. I hope your holiday weekend starts off well. Have a great Memorial Day Weekend!​
