O/T: Summer is through with me.

house_cat — Tue, 22 Jul 2014 02:12:12 GMT

Maybe it's because we never had a winter this year.. I'm not sure, but I do think that summer is through with me and I feel the same about it.

Am I the only one who likes cooler temps and shorter days?

It seems that way.

Could you be missing the kiddies and ready for the new academic year??!!!! . No, I love the longer days of summer!! And right now, Mother Nature is being very nice in my neck of the woods on the East Coast--- have had some very HHH (hot, humid and hazy) days, some hot w/o the humidity days (wonderful), some spring-andlike temps, and some cooler days where the AC can be cut off and windows opened. When you have four seasons, summer affords time for so many outdoor activities-- winters, not so much. Or, maybe you are just missing the East Coast! It will pass.

You're right, Vabreeze.. summer is sweeter when there are four seasons. I miss that. Also, there is a great deal of tension and sadness around here right now and I think I'd be better off at work. I didn't want this to be a total bring-down thread, so I'm not going to elaborate, but things have been tough lately.

Here in New England winter went on forever. We're not quite through with summer yet, in fact, I don't think we'll be through with it for a while.

I live in the mid Hudson valley of NY, and our winter was horrible and seemed endless.

I am already getting nervous that we're entering August, because although I do enjoy fall...It means winter is around the corner. And I HATE WINTER!

If it were up to me, summer would last forever!!! I am DONE with winters.

we had a very rare cool snap last week; it didn't get out of the 70's for two days and we had 3 inches of rain on Thursday....it is never that cool in July in Texas....not since the 1920's....we stayed outside as much as possible just to enjoy it......Yesterday it was back to 100 degrees and miserable. The heat saps my energy for sure....I have to keep telling myself what my mother would say during the long, hot, Texas summers...."fall is coming....it always does"...and she was right but sometimes it seems to take longer and longer to get here!

I live on the east coast and we had a very long brutal winter. I don't mind the cold but the shoveling of snow continually was tiring. I don't mind shoveling snow either. I hate the heat - anything over 80 is misery for me. But this summer is going so much better than last year.

house, I too like the cooler weather, yes, and even the bitter cold and snow. I also love the more DARK hours. I love the dark,,been told "you're a mole". maybe so, it seems to calm me and put me at lease. go figure. I just like it. Moved a bit south now and it's definitely different, but I'm hangin in there.

Nope--if I could live somewhere that was always warm and sunny, I would move in a New York MINUTE!!! I live in WA state where we have 9 months of winter until July 5th and then we get some nice weather. Last summer and this one has actually been pretty decent. No way do I want dark early or gloom and wet, rainy weather for days on end!!!!

We live in New England and the winters are a lot milder then they were years ago. We actually do not start wearing a winter coat until December. The Fall here used to be harsh but in recent years is a lot warmer. I do not feel that the winter was all that bad last year as compared to years ago. I hate the Summer with the heat and the constant storms. Summers used to be on the cooler side years back and now it is hazy, hot and humid. I am so looking forward to Fall. Also do not like Summer clothing. Everyone always looks like they took their clothes out of the hamper.

Well, I live in Central FL and think that I would like cool, dark, gloomy weather, and I love rain. We get our share of rain here, but that just makes it that much more humid. But I have to admit that when I go home to visit Cleveland, after seeing 3 or 4 days of cloud cover, I am ready to come home to the sunny skies of Florida. Guess I am just missing the seasons. I never complained about the snow and cold during my years in Ohio.

I live for the cooler days, the less intense light, and the 4pm darkness!
