Re: Anyone else hate Summer?

I guess I dislike summer for a different reason, allergies. Somehow I have never thought of grass as a blooming thing, but it has to have a bloom for pollen to appear. I stay indoors and keep my AC unit company. Mr. Carrier is my idol. I'm not fond of spring/summer/fall because of the allergies and the bugs. Retired now so I don't have to be out and about so I no longer pay an allergy doctor to give me shots 2 or 3 times a week. Between the testing and then the shots, I invested in his BMW. I have learned to love winter.

Re: Anyone else hate Summer?

I would hate summer if I lived in Fl full time too.  I love to go to Fl however in the winter since winter here in the northeast is so long, cold, dreary, brown & gray...hate it!

 

Summer here has been humid and rainy (more so that usual).  However we still get some lovely low humidity days with temps in the low 80s and 70s.

I loved the summers growing up in San Diego.  Not so much in the south,  yuk.

I'd like it better if there was no lawn care.  I am counting the weeks until my lawnmower  and pruning shears can go back into hibernation.  I'm over it.  Big time.

@chiclet  I grew up in Florida also and you are so right!  It seems that every year we are having a new "record

heat this summer!"  Don't know when it will stop. 

Thank God for our breeze that helps make it tolerable.

Re: Anyone else hate Summer?

It's why I moved from the midwest and east coast to Colorado.  Low humidity, sunshine.   Sometimes I miss the lakes/oceans but we have  mountain lakes too.   I have friends that live in Florida in the winter to avoid snow,  but come home to Colorado in the summer.

Re: Anyone else hate Summer?

I like summer for the fresh, local fruit & veggies.

 

We've had a rather tolerable summer this year.

Not a ton of humidity.

I like some humidity, but anything north of 60% and it gets uncomfortable.

I like fall - football, holidays.

I do not like winter at all!  We have rainy winters here and if the temps drop, it will be snow or ice.

Spring is my favorite.
