I HATE summer!! Being on winter

Just wondered does anyone else HATE the summer and prefer winter months?

I hate being too hot and not being able to cool down, I hate how easy it is to get dehydrated, I hate how grumpy it makes my DC and I hate being sweaty and sticky. I could go on.

Don't get me wrong I like a bit of sun as opposed to rain but not the heat and humidity.

I like winter, being cosy and warm when it's cold outside and the build up Christmas Smile

AIBU to want to hibernate until September? Lol

I prefer the seasons before the extremes so basically Spring and Autumn.
I hate having cold toes as much as I hate sweating in a t-shirt.

SlaveToDisney · 14/06/2017 18:53

Here here! But can we have a proper winter with snow?

meladeso · 14/06/2017 18:53

this title cheered me up on a bad day Smile

yes yes absolutely

i like looking at summer, but other than that i loathe being too hot, and trying to dress comfortably

i sometimes wonder if i was slimmer i'd hate it less?

ManifestingMyDreams · 14/06/2017 18:54

@VladmirsPoutine I understand what you mean there, still will have to be autumn as opposed to spring for me because summer comes after spring lol

Highalert · 14/06/2017 18:54

ShelaghTurner · 14/06/2017 18:54

Aha, hello my people! Hate hate hate hate hate summer. And it's not even fecking summer yet - 30° degrees today Angry. Cannot wait till October!

Ocies · 14/06/2017 18:54

Sorry but I'm going to disagree - I love summer. I'm,I've to feel the warmth of the sun on my face. I like wearing fewer clothes and I love the smell of summer evenings.

ManifestingMyDreams · 14/06/2017 18:55

@SlaveToDisney I honestly can't remember the last time we had proper snow. My Two DC haven't experienced proper snow yet Sad

YANBU roll on September. I'm sick and tired of boob sweat, damp underwear caused by the heat, too hot to sleep, everything is a chore just to top it off I need to wear my suit tomorrow for an interview and it seems to be made from some super sweating fabric that has some weird odour when warm.

Thesp00kykids · 14/06/2017 18:55

I agree, bring on winter!

ManifestingMyDreams · 14/06/2017 18:56

One good thing about summer which I love (and probably the only thing I love) thunder storms!!

pipsqueak25 · 14/06/2017 18:56

me too, autumn my favourite, don't like summer for a lot of reasons, -heat, sun burn, sweat, too tight clothes on anyone, topless lads, louder than usual music, smoky bbqs, flies.. god i'm cranky today ! Grin

ManifestingMyDreams · 14/06/2017 18:57

@OdinsLoveChild 😂 your post made me laugh

OP posts:
DoctorDonnaNoble · 14/06/2017 18:57

Winter is so much better! Too hot to sleep properly at the moment

SlaveToDisney · 14/06/2017 18:59

@ManifestingMyDreams neither have mine and it makes me sad. I remember being little and we were nearly guaranteed to have snow Sad

Nousernameforme · 14/06/2017 18:59

Summer can do one, with it's sweatyness, flies and ants.
Having to douse everyone in sun cream and grab hats before we leave in the morning adds 15 mins to the routine so everything has to be done a little quicker resulting in frayed tempers so early in the day

flapjackfairy · 14/06/2017 19:01

I am with you op . In the summer I just get all hot and bothered and cant find anything to wear that suits me. And v worst are the light mornings! Despite black out blinds etc i wake at the crack of dawn everyday. It is so annoying ! I am exhausted by the time autumn arrives. Oh but the joy of getting back into warm jumpers , jeans and boots and snuggling up of an evening in cosy pyjamas. Oh I bloody love winter!

ManifestingMyDreams · 14/06/2017 19:03

@SlaveToDisney I'm 26 and I don't even think over ever experienced a white Christmas. But I have experienced some fab snow though. But I do with the same for my DC. These days we're lucky to have a small flurry

No you wouldn't !! I struggle to keep weight on and hate summer . The back of my neck is constantly sweaty, I can't sleep and feel sluggish.

Give me a nice cold winter day any time !
