It's a bit of redundant title, since once a countdown is started, it will continue until the deadline is reached. And when you know both the date of the deadline and the date of the start of the countdown, you can deduce - with considerable ease - whether or not the countdown is, in fact, continuing or not.
I could have just changed the title, I guess.
We have 10 weeks to go until Babyday. It feels a long time off and extremely close depending on how we're going about phrasing it.
Two and a half months? No problem. Plenty of time to get a job sorted out, earn a little money, let my wifey nest a little.
Ten weeks? Hmm... I'll have to pick up a little speed if I'm going to get things done within a comfortable timeframe.
Seventy days?! Huh. I'm not sure I'll have enough time to think about getting a job before the kiddo arrives.
I guess I'll stick to the month-based countdowns for now.
I'm so excited, though. I can't wait.
