What will they have in store this year for the 100th anniversary? I'm honestly intrigued.

Happy Tuesday!

I've been wondering the same thing. I hope Savannah Guthrie is back. It won't be the same without her.

It does look delicious.

DAYS TILL THANKSGIVING: 253
DAYS TILL NOVEMBER: 228
DAYS TILL THE BERS: 167

Happy Late Winter! Today folks we move along and see that we have 253 days remaining until Thanksgiving, 228 days left until November and 167 days to go until The Bers. We move along in our Stress-Free Spring (Day 2) with our next milestone arriving on Saturday with the 250-Day Marker till Thanksgiving. It’s Wednesday folks so time for our Weekly Wednesday Poll below!

What’s your plans for vacation this year?

A.)I’m going on a long vacation (greater than 1 week).
B.) I’m taking mostly mini vacations (long weekends).
C.) I don’t plan to take much vacation this year.
D.) I’m saving all my vacation for Christmas.

I’m going with B. I like taking long weekends and plan to take 4-day weekends this year for spring and into summer several times. But I also already put in to take off the entire week of Christmas too. Fortunately, I already have that off which is still so special to be able to go around with my brother. Have a great Late Winter!​

It's an A for me. We're going on an eight-day cruise in October with four other couples. I'll also take my annual week off at Thanksgiving and two weeks off at Christmas. Somewhere in the middle of all that, I'll take a few days off when our daughter comes to visit and when my mom comes to visit.

I'm going with "B"! I have a couple of long weekends planned beginning on April 3rd, and taking me through the 1st half of the year.

I haven't planned anything for the second half because Holly will be having surgery sometime in mid to late June, and I'll be off for a week then. I have plenty of PTO left so maybe I can squeeze some time in during the Fall.

Have a great Wednesday!

I am doing a combo of A and B...I would like to take a couple of weeks off in the summer. And then sprinkle in some long weekends for late summer, fall and holiday season of course!

 

[Tcooper]

Due to over crowded trails and campsites, we will be doing a lot of mid-week mini's through the summer and then some more extended time around the holidays.

B. It will be long weekends for any trips this year. The long vacation will be a staycation over December/Christmas.

D but also something else. I always take about 2 weeks off at Christmas. We are closed half of that time so I only wind up using 4 or 5 vacation days. We are also taking a week off this summer but just staying a home a few days and doing day trips for the rest of that week. In Oct DH and are taking an extended weekend mini vacation for our anniversary and plan to go to NY. DH wants to visit the Baseball Hall of Fame on Cooperstown. I get 5 weeks of vacation but never use all 5 and carry over days each year.

Combo of A and B for me as well. We have several multi-week vacations planned at our northern Michigan place. We’ll also be traveling to a couple of places for long weekends as Marriage Encounter presenters.

I’m going to go with D this year, only because I don’t have anything planned vacation-wise at all yet. I really need to plan something, even if it’s small, because I’m beginning to go stir-crazy.
