To simultaneously welcome and dread spring

It’s such a weird one, I’m abroad, so spring is arriving now with some heat..at first it was incredible, little flowers everywhere, the light at night again and the birds singing etc. Now I’m getting the dread feeling and almost want it to go away and stay in winter, what is that 🤷🏻‍♀️
Part of it is because I need to lose a couple of stone and dread my body having to come out, whereas in winter I can hide, but it’s not just that…I’m not sure what it is, I’d imagine most people love it and summer too. I did also when young, now, not sure
Am I a weirdo?

Think it's that feeling of always being pressured to be out enjoying it all

I get that feeling at Christmas and new year.

and absolutely HATE wearing summer clothes!

Can you not wear what you wear in winter but in lighter materials?

I just cannot wrap my head around people not liking spring and summer. Blossom trees, daffodils, baby animals, beach days, warm summer evenings, drinking cold beer in the sun, country walks, the smell of flowers, swimming in the sea, the feeling of warm sun on your skin, etc. I could go on!

This is how I feel. I love the heat, the light, the better mood most people are in, the clothes I can wear without needing 100 layers to keep warm.

I can't wait for summer, love love it.
Going out in just a summer frock and sandals, not having to put on socks, tights, jumpers, hats, scarves etc. Bring it on 😎
