How the weeks are counted
We count full seven-day weeks between today and December 25. If today doesn't fall neatly on a week boundary, the leftover days are shown next to the week count — so the number you see is always exact, never rounded.
Counting in weeks suits the season's rhythm: gift shopping, travel plans, and baking weekends are all planned week by week. On Christmas Eve, the last week is over and there is exactly one sleep left.
