View Full Version : Countdown tickers/donuts of misery....
sailorsgirl2001 02-03-2008, 04:00 PM Love em or hate em???
On the good days I like them because it gives me a SOLID number to hang onto...
On the bad days....:hairpull:hissyfit:gaah:slap:tantrum:rant
:shakefist
So anyone else here have a love/hate relationship with their tickers? :giggle
lacy+chk 02-03-2008, 04:05 PM i love em when i go away for a few days and then come back to them...or when i have the willpower to not check them everyday...otherwise they make me a little upset...hahaha, but it's still exciting to see how far we've made it!!!
Southerngrl85 02-03-2008, 04:09 PM I feel about the same way When I don't look at it for a few days, its awesome to see how long it has been, but then there are times where a few days seems like an eternity and you just want to punch your ticker in the throat and say hurry up already.
jen1982 02-03-2008, 04:11 PM I love them. They help me to take each day one day at a time, and the longer my husband is gone, it enables me to see how far we have made it, and how little we have to go. In the past year, I have always loved mine.
Alicia99 02-03-2008, 04:24 PM My ticker isn't moving very fast. I swear it should say 1 year, 5 months and 6 days!!!! At least that is how I feel. :(
armywife4life 02-03-2008, 05:33 PM I feel the same way...we were just down to 4 weeks left and got extended two weeks. Now I know it is only TWO weeks, but it feels like 2 YEARS!
airmanssweetie 02-03-2008, 05:55 PM it's both for me depending on my mood. But the time seems to be moving pretty fast for me. a little under 2 weeks left for us :o)
pheena02 02-03-2008, 06:05 PM I have a love hate relationship with mine. I had to learn that no matter how long or hard I stared at it or what names I called it, it wasn't going to go any faster. Now, I am pretty good about not checking it everyday. Right now, I am just excited that it says a month and it feels like I am getting somewhere!
mandyb 02-03-2008, 06:32 PM I do not look at mine very often but when I do, uggg , so I guess I hate it for now but when it starts saying something like "yay, it's today", I will be happy with it, then
I can kill it.. LOL
W&M3202 02-03-2008, 08:26 PM I only look at mine every now and again, but most of the time I hate it because it never says what I want it to.
CAmom4721 02-03-2008, 08:36 PM I love having one when he's gone because it gives me something to look forward to, and lets me know how long I have already made it. I try to keep it as a positive thing.
Godders_Girl80 02-03-2008, 08:38 PM I like the ticker now. When I just got it it took FOREVER to move to one month. Now it seems that when I get the chance to notice it it just flies. I don't mind it at all. :D
mrs_ski 02-03-2008, 08:39 PM I love them.
seeing how fast the time goes by, and knowing i am that much closer to my Dh.
I think they really help the deployment!!!
=Mrs.AiNokeA= 02-03-2008, 08:40 PM I agree with some of the other girls. As long as I don't look at it everyday then I'm ok. When I do look at it everyday it just makes the time seem like it's going so slow.
jssheila 02-04-2008, 12:52 AM I can't stand this count up one....shows how long it really has been...I prefer the count down ones because they only have 2 numbers on them:grin:
