Counting Christmas in Mondays
A number of days is easy to ignore; a number of Mondays is not. With 13 Mondays left you know exactly how many working weeks stand between now and Christmas morning — how many payroll runs, how many Monday deliveries, how many school weeks. It is the same date seen through the unit people actually plan in.
The table above breaks the remaining 94 days down into every weekday, so you can plan around 13 Saturdays of shopping, 13 full weekends of decorating, or 68 working days to finish everything you told yourself you would do before the holidays.

Why count Mondays instead of days?
Mondays are how a lot of plans actually get measured — payroll runs, sprint starts, weekly shops, school weeks. Knowing you have a set number of Mondays left is a sharper deadline than a big number of days.
