Only about 2-4 more weeks of summer weather and then it will be over. I find myself already dreading it? Do you?
I will not miss the heatwave but will miss summer. __________________ The optimist sees the glass of water as half full, the pessimist sees the glass of water as half empty, the pragmatist drink the water because they are thirsty |

No I personally will not miss summer going away...... and for two reasons only.
1.) School has started back, therefore, I have my quite peaceful home back. 2.) Summer is to HOT in Florida.... I like Fall better. LoVe, Rhapsody - |

PasDeDeux,
I'm with Rhapsody, although I'm in another part of the country. It has been so hot in the Midwest (triple digit temps), I am really looking forward to Fall. EJ |

I kinda do PasDeDeux.
I only get three weeks of summer vacation (right now) because I took summer university classes. And regular classes start the 2nd week of September. (erp) And its been quite nice - albeit really hot at times. I can't stand winter though (and in Canada I feel it gets REALLY bad) I don't see summer as a specific date when it begins/ends (like other seasons as well) but am going to miss this weather. Wow. __________________ |

i prefer winter weather, it is colder so therefore there are less people out on the streets, its a bonus if it rains.

I'm looking forward to autumn and winter! Of course, I won't like it so much when it's here, but there you go

Yes PasDeDeux, I'm dreading summer ending.
Due to a few physical illnesses I am VERY sensitive to temps below 50 degrees fahrenheit-- I wear multiple layers from November thru March-- and I don't even live where it gets that cold! I LOVE summer and hot weather! I'm physically so much more comfortable and mentally it's also better as the days are longer with more sunshine! Bye bye warm bright sunshine-- |

im completely dreading it, especially considering how long they last here in England. the cold, wet weather makes me so unhappy, im sure i suffer from S.A.D (seasonal affective disorder). Not only that, i look pale too becaus ei am naturally pale skinned, and in the summer i tan up nicely which makes me feel slightly more confident in my own skin, but when winter comes i lose my tan, therefore going back to looking unhealthily pale.
roll on next summer i say... simon |

You're gonna hate me for this Simon, but I am looking forward to the start of summer! Our summer starts in September and I have been hating the winter. Go somewhere south and you can have summer all year!!!

I am hating the end of summer..About the only thing I have enjoyed this past year is swimming in my pool...I think it has kept me sane...Kept me from becoming a complete agoraphobic...I am afraid once the bad weather comes and I have to stay it...that will be the end of my going outside...I am very scared...

I can't wait for cooler weather. Fall is my very favorite time of year!

Winter is not a friend of depression!!! Fall is beatiful, but I can't help but think that everything is dying.

I used to dread the end of summer-always thought that YUCK, everything was dead or dormant. Until, I started breaking up the season. The northeast can get mighty drab and colorless prior to the pretty winter snows. Soooo, I started jazzing up the place. Every month I have some cheery decorations I put up round the house, on my outside doors. Like welcome fall, Halloween (we do a big display for that), etc.. I am always kind of gazing one month ahead (even though I am not very elaborate with what I do, except maybe Christmas gets a bit more attention) it keeps my mind geared in the spirit of "something" and celebrating each season. I really welcome the break from the heat now, and the season of allergies. By the end of December (I call that prespring for me) I am really gearing up for spring and implementing final plans for my garden (and it's not all that big).
If you are a crafty person, start making some doo-dads for the holidays, even if you are not. There are so many things that one can do, set aside a time once a week to put some "spirit" into the drab. It's all about perspective-you know turn that lemon into lemonade, bowl of cherries, box of chocolates thing. Oh, yeah, this reminds me, I am going to start on Christmas cards and tags. Last year we goofed around with making tags, and they came out great. This year we said let's do cards, so, that I should probably start by Sept...it's a bit of work to design, print, color and add glitter to em all. Hope some of this helps, hugs, Lisa __________________ ~*~Patience is a virtue, so please be virtuous with me.~*~ ~*~Like they say, Rome wasn't built in a day, was it?~*~ ~*~Time is our friend and our healer.~*~ ~*~You are what you attract.~*~ |

I HATE HATE HATE WINTER and fall is pretty but not a lot to do outdoors. We have real winters here....cold and snow. I wish I had a southern winter because then I could still garden and swim and lay out, BBQ so much I cannot do come winter. I also miss the sun. It is getting darker here earlier and that stinks

Not really. I don't like the heat and humidity we get here in southern NJ...and fall means FOOTBALL(go Eagles)and NASCAR's 'Playoffs'(The Chase for the Nextel Cup)..on a different note, it also means study, study, and more study, as I go back to college after Labor Day.

I prefer Autumn,the clear,crisp,drier air. Only thing I do not care for is losing the extra daylight.
Spring is one of my favourites too. Only as a child,did I like Summer and became slightly saddened by it's end. Being older,hot flashes and more pounds than I want,make Summer uncomfortable for me,and seems to make the hot flashes hotter? Autumn,apple season, yay!! __________________ |
