Anyone else sad summer is drawing to a close?

[Summerover2]

I’ve had a great summer - loads of memories with our daughter (3), playing in the garden daily and trips in the sun.

I already feel sad it’s coming to a close - I like the Christmas build up in December but apart from that I really struggle with the grey days and know I’ll be reminiscing loads for summer 😥

This exactly

I don't believe it's over yet. I reckon we've got another two weeks, possibly three.

YANBU I absolutely love the summer and hate the cold, wind, rain and dark. There is nothing I like about winter.

Fuck that shit. I can get my life back once it cools. It's been absolutely horrific in the heat.

Nope! Fuck summer

Not this year!!

No, London. I literally cried with relief at the lovely weather today. Being able to go outside in a hoodie, take it off when I got warm, put it back on when I walked in the shade.

My time of the year begins now, i love the harsh weather, i heard to day that its going to get cold with the biggest El nino coming to the uk it happens every 2 or 7 years or something like that, ive not read up on it.

Absolutely, had to put a sweatshirt and socks this evening for the first time in months and it really saddened me, couldn’t eat in the garden.
it already feels like a long haul to enjoying outdoors again!
I have a few sunshine breaks booked between now and next spring but that only covers 3 weeks of the next 6 months

I’ve been glad for some rain but the shops already putting out Halloween stuff. Dh was in the garden this evening and you could see his breath.

I am not ready for winter to arrive and I say winter as I feel we will skip autumn

Totally agree with you

I do think autumn was better years ago. It was a pleasant relaxed time with Harvest festival to look forward to and nothing to stress about,

Now it’s all get cosy,Halloween and buy for Christmas because it’s all sold out by December.

I love summer, and I’m dreadfully sad it’s coming to an end. It’s been wonderful, and I hope I have another this good.

We’ve had a wonderful summer and yes I’ll be sad it’s over as the night draw in

I’m dreading winter, I need light and sunshine, I suffer from SAD. Apparently we are going to have a very wet and stormy Autumn according to the Met Office, thanks to the El Niño. Sigh…..😞

I think uabu because in my head it's still summer. Or at least not winter. Still bright in evenings, don't need fires...I'm calling it summer for another month.

Yes. The ground desperately needs some rain but I hate the darker evenings. I really dislike Christmas too, and everything associated with it. Roll on May 2027 when it gets warmer again.

For the first time in years I’m ready for autumn; we had a nice hot summer, a proper season, and now it’s time to freeze our tits off for the next 9 months.

Nope - looking forward to cosy Autumn vibes. Really looking forward to it....

I love the heat and the sun, I was born to live in a hot country and feel solar powered. I was furious putting long trousers and a sweatshirt on here today, even worked from home with my electric blanket on this morning as I felt chilly even though objectively my house was still ‘warm’.
i actually like all the seasons, but as the nights begin to draw in gradually that bit earlier I feel a sense of panic that we’ve possibly had the last of sitting out in the garden with friends until late in the evening or even just me and dh for the year.
I love the light in the autumn and the brown leaves, I love the proper winter because when I’m home my fire is constantly roaring, but I will miss the weeks where I didn’t have to worry about layers of clothing and feeling cold.

I am the biggest fan of summer - but autumn is beautiful ! The crisp air, the sparkling sunshine, the clear blue sky, the trees are another level of gorgeousness.

Dont forget about lovely autumn !

It’s been too hot for me and work has been insanely busy. However we had a lovely holiday and it’s felt like a proper season, so im happy to have good memories from it.

every season is exciting with young children! You will have a wonderful autumn too. I would print off some of your favourite summer photos and put them in a frame. And then make plans for autumn - leaves changing colour, Halloween, bonfire night!

I am yes

Yes, I’ll miss it too 😌

The dark,the rain,the wind,the heating bills. The reality of Autumn not the romantic MN version.
