The "bers"

The weeks have flown. My mom says by the time you reach the "bers" in the year, it'll all sail by and before you know it, you'll be singing Auld Lang Syne, and counting down to a fresh 365 days. September, October, November... can't believe another year's come and gone so soon. Some shops are already being decorated in red and green, and yes. Shock horror. I've already bought some Christmas cards.
