  My milestone widget is counting wrong! I have checked that my blog’s time/date settings are correct, but it still claims that there’s only a month between now and November!

  It counts down by the month until it gets under one month, then it counis days. Check out these countdowns provided by Panos:

  Well, there is in a manner of speaking. This is September, so there is only a month, October, between now and November.

  Yeah, yeah, I know …. not what you meant.

  Thanks a lot Woodie!

  Thanks Houstonweaver, but those widgets are beyond my skill set to install.

  I guess I will just have to wait until there’s less than a month to go – it’s a shame as I liked that widget!
