What are you counting days till?
I have 19 days till fab night out!
I have 26 days till a personal challenge of mine. Yep you might wonder how "challenge" counts as a happy thing, but it should be a positive one...
And 46 till meeting new and old friends again fingers and lashes crossed
What are you looking fwd to?  |

Counting down days is incredibly exciting isn't it? I hope that the closer you get the more the anticipation builds; that giddy, euphoric joy is such an intoxicating adrenaline boost isn't it?
I have a weekish until lunch with a dear grumpysaurus.
Just over two weeks until breakfast with an erudite delight of an onion.
Birthday celebrations.
Dalliance.
And 5 days until I attempt to run around a mere with the best motivating sister in law there is.
I've kept exact days out bar running.  |

It's cool no need for exact numbers on here. They just play nicely in my brain and go down down down closer to fulfilment.. and I do like the feeling |

8 work days until I have a week off.
103 days to Christmas.
8651 days to retirement based on current estimate of pension at 70. Not that I'm counting. |

Hi op - all sounds good!
I have ten days until I finally get to spend a whole evening, night an morning with a favourite fwb of mine.
I have a (hopefully) Butlins 80’s weekender to look forward to with a group of fab friends.
And at the beginning of may next year I’m going to Jamaica with a large group of fab and non-fab friends to celebrate a milestone birthday. (Not mine - theirs)
Before that I want to lose some weight so I feel ok in a bikini - and get a job I enjoy.
So lots to do/look forward to.  |

"I don't have a definitive date but I'm counting down the days until the babies sleep through the night.
My eyes are constantly hanging out of my head "
That day comes. Then the silence feels awkward. Then when you submit to the bliss of no noise they learn how to argue with you. |

Love a countdown but covid moved all of mine from last year to this year then this year to next year and I’ve no idea what century we live in now or how many days make Saturday and what universe are we on again?
I probably should work out when and where I’m meant to be going to things… |

I currently rely on the good friends to tell me where I’m supposed to be. I like those magnetic calendars you can get for the fridge and you write everything thing in it and tear each day off until you get there. I used to keep the special days in a memory jar so I can look back and see the fun times I had through the year. |

We are counting down to this weekend as we are meeting Fab friends and then a vanilla 40th birthday party on Saturday night.
We are then going to the Lake District next week for 3 days and going to climb a small mountain and have lots of lovely food and drink in some great company of a very special couple.
We are very excited. It really is good for my mental health to have lots of things to look forward to. It gets you through any dull droll or difficult days and generally just makes life so much more enjoyable. I couldn't imagine never having any plans in the making. |

I've seen a poster today referring to 80 days around the world book... I like those little coincidences. One of my favourite childhood authors too.
I need to start buying and making things..  |

I know! As good as living in present is...future has so much to offer and even if today is gloomy you can comfort yourself with something good expecting you to arrive and greet it with open arms like any good life experience should be
World Mental Health Day on 10th Oct. I'm counting down to that and have a wish to mark it in a certain way..  |

We are always counting down to occasions…short-term is when we see each other again.
We’ve got 5 days near the end of this month in Scotland together.
Then December is MLS and then on my birthday we go off on a Caribbean cruise, and come back on Boxing Day…
Lots to count down too

Envious of Scotland!
