Why Summer Sucks!

Post Reply New Topic

Dogs barking, scraping metal, lawn maintenance, screaming kids, and the squeak squeak of the swing just a block away. Even with my windows closed (not such a great idea in summer) they irritate me immensly. I usualy put my headphones in and start humming to get rid of the noise.

Sweaty when I go to bed and sweaty when I wake up, I don't even need a swimming pool.

1. You sure are right about the kids. Grrrr...
2. The heat. That one's obvious, but I hate to sweat. Especially since the air conditioner in my ancient car decided to go today.
3. Everybody and their brother is at the beach, taking up space with their million kids and littering. All I want is a relaxing trip to the shore, but no....
4. Barking neighborhood dogs (including my own). Enough said.
5. We haven't had a good rain in nearly a month.

I can't wait until fall. At least the kids go back to school and it's cooler outside. I want it to RAIN.

Summer in Scotland - rain, rain and more rain.

I might change my post title to: "Why I Love Rain In the Summer."

It forces all the noisy people inside!! !

And gives us such a soothing natural sound to boot!

Just to be sure I wouldn't be duplicating a thread on SAD summer edition I checked and found this one.

It's great to find out that there are others who also hate summer with the humidity and hot temperatures.

The lovely slightly younger man I live with suggested that I take a dip in the pool that we have at the campgrounds. When I get out I'll feel much better. He wasn't able to help me after I let him know that 5 minutes after getting out of the pool I would be back to where I started. It looked as though he found it funny when I let him know the only way his idea would work is if I stayed in the pool ALL 'kucfing' day.

The air conditioner in a 5th wheel trailer only cools off the temperature by a small degree which is a total waste of money. Let alone I don't want to feel like a prisoner in my own home.

Tell me what do you do to feel better? Or are you like me and haven't figured that out yet? Sometimes I consider going to the movies every day to enjoy their air conditioning. I just wonder how fat could I get from eating popcorn and Junior Mints each and every day. It's too bad that the movie theaters don't have all day passes.
