DAYS TILL THANKSGIVING: 152
DAYS TILL NOVEMBER: 126
DAYS TILL THE BERS: 65


Happy Summer Saturday! Today folks we move along and see that we have 152 days remaining until Thanksgiving, 126 days left until November and 65 days to go until The Bers. We move along in our Summer Sweatfest with our next milestone arriving on Monday. It will be the 150-Day Marker till Thanksgiving. It’s Saturday so time for the first half of our Quiet Weekend Period. I hope you are all ready for some quieter times this weekend in this thread. Don’t worry plenty of fun topics to come in the coming week. But right now it feels good to be able to sit back, relax, enjoy some (iced) coffee and just think about your weekend plans. I hope they involve lots of fun stuff and fun times this weekend. I hope your week went pretty well overall though too. Hard to believe we’re heading to the halfway marker in the year. This time of year it always hits me a phrase you’ll probably see me repeat several times in various threads but “90% of what we love the most takes place in the 2nd half/50% of the year.” I think that probably isn’t even overstating it. Turkey friends I hope you are enjoying your weekend. I hope the weather is nice where you are and you get to take advantage of this summer weekend. Check back in when you can. Have a great Summer Saturday!​
@Edge612 you never disappoint with bringing the fun!
 
DAYS TILL THANKSGIVING: 151

DAYS TILL THE BERS: 64


Happy Next To Last Day Of June! Today folks we move along and see that we have 151 days remaining until Thanksgiving, 125 days left until November and 64 days to go until The Bers. We move along in our Summer Sweatfest with our next milestone arriving on Monday. It will be the 150-Day Marker till Thanksgiving. That’s it folks as we won’t be closer to the 2’s than the 1’s to Thanksgiving anymore. It’s Sunday folks and time for the 2nd half of our Quiet Weekend Period. Believe it or not folks we are into the 2nd half of the weekend but we are still in the 1st half of the year. I talk about turning points and there’s so many we have had in this first half of the year but something about reaching the 2nd half really hits me. I know there are those who will want to rush the next couple of months but really once we cross into July (dare I say that word already) then we will be seriously into the dog days of summer. And that’s a good thing. That means the anticipation will only increase. Yes, it will be hot. Yes, it will be humid. And yes that may slow down (in a good way) time for us to get our anticipation up and of course that includes the annual 50-Day Preview of The Bers. But let’s not talk about that right now. Focus on your Sunday. Enjoy it. Have a great Next To Last Day Of June!​
 
The 50 Day Countdown to The Bers will be a perfect time to slow down and reflect on the special moments we all love. Each day, we will have something new to think about and share with one another.

It's really perfect and it kind of keeps us occupied right through the heart of summer...and those dog days which you know can be very hot and long (but that can be to our advantage)!
 
Happy Sunday! I am trying to enjoy a slow Sunday, I know once July 4th is over the summer really flies by, which is scary because I still don't know where June went.

Happy June Finale! Today folks we move along and see that we have 150 days remaining until Thanksgiving, 124 days to go until November and 63 days left until The Bers. We move along in our Summer Sweatfest here on this Milestone Monday. Yes, we have reached the milestone of the 150-Day Marker till Thanksgiving. Our next milestone will arrive on Tuesday (tomorrow) when we reach the month of July. Not only the month of July arrives friends but the 2nd half of the year. No offense to the first half of the year at all because I enjoyed many things about it but obviously for most of us the second half of the year is where the most amazing things we love the most are. And they are still safely in front of us today on this Monday. Be happy about that. It’s hard to believe and really I think this coming week we have the first (and most overlooked) of those special things that fall in the 2nd half of the year and that would be the 4th of July. Fireworks, BBQs, a summer holiday and a long weekend. What can beat that? Before you answer “Thanksgiving” well the great thing is we get to enjoy this holiday in the summer and keep The Bers and the Holiday Season all in front of us for another 2 full months. I’m thankful for that time and the chance to enjoy the summer (including the 50-Day Preview of The Bers). Have a great June Finale!​
 
Happy Milestone Day! 150 Days! Wow - we all know how a count feels once it gets to 150 days.

I think the big question right now is will time drag through July or will it move at a fair clip especially when things like summer vacations get going?

Have a great day!
 
I’m trying to think about how I will approach Thanksgiving this year after my diabetes diagnosis. When I go back to the doctor in three months, it will be October. I am working hard to adjust my diet and have a solid exercise regimen in place by then so that maybe I won’t need medication anymore. Except for the turkey, Thanksgiving dinner is pretty much all carbs, so I don’t know what I’m going to do with myself.

Good for you, @The_Escalation those are some hard changes you have made and it can be frustrating waiting for the benefits to kick in. I love the carbs too. Keep up the good work.
 
And yet another huge milestone has been reached. Awesome.

This has probably been the best one, yet. I can feel the excitement building with each milestone. July 4th and the Preview of the Bers are two of my favorite...and they are both quickly approaching.
Less than two weeks until the 50 Day Preview of The Bers! excited_pumpkin_01.gif

Happy July Arrives! Today folks we move along and see that we have 149 days remaining until Thanksgiving, 123 days left until November and 62 days to go until The Bers. We move along in our Summer Sweatfest with our next milestone arriving here today with the month of July arriving. Pretty awesome to enter the second half of the year. This is the January of Summer, I think. It’s the month that can slow things down, in a good way. I’m looking forward to a lot of things this month including the 4th of July which to me is one of the most underrated days of the year. It’s Tuesday folks so time for our Picture Day. Yes, get your photos ready to post here on this Tuesday. We want to make sure we have them ready. Any pictures of Autumn and Thanksgiving that you want to share please do. Maybe a picture of a big, huge turkey that will make our mouth water. Whatever you would like to post please do. Turkey friends I hope your July is off to a good start. This is a very special month which will include the 50-Day Preview of The Bers later this month. For now, we simply focus on the day at hand. That’s how you must focus each day and get the most enjoyment you can from the current day. Gobble Gobble turkey friends. Have a great July Arrives!​
