I wait until it gets to about 30 days and then I start enthusiastically counting down. Yep...we all make references to getting "shorter and shorter."
And going to visit my sis in the UK in August when this place is literally a blast furnace is a bonus. Everything is lush and green and cool and I'm free and can go anywhere I want. With no body armor on, even! I love it. :-D
