melissel Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 I feel horrible guilt about this, but July and August just make me depressed. This summer has been especially bad because I'm trying not to spend money, and all the free things are outdoors. I feel like we should be outdoors more, but I don't want to go outside. We're only in NJ, but this summer has been particularly nasty and humid. We can hardly even open the windows at night :( We had a very nice, cool day last week, and I couldn't believe the change in my mood! Â Am I the only person locked in her house until September?

gingersmom Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 I would die from the heat if I was locked in my house. Â I only have 2 window air conditioners and they barely make any difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daisy Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 I HATE summer. I don't want to leave the house and I don't want to stay at home. I want to move to a cooler climate! Â Hubby gets NO paycheck in the summer months and it is 105+ degrees outside. Blech. Â I just count down the days to autumn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sarawatsonim Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 I hate the summer. The heat and humidity this summer has been bad and I try not to go out unless I have to. I feel guilty too about the missing out on fun free stuff, but I can't bring myself to go out for any extended period of time. Today was cooler, overcast and so much more livable for me and we went out to several places. Last week we went fall shopping for my dd5. The amount of excitement I felt buying sweaters, jeans and hats was ridiculous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eaglei Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 I'm with Daisy - I HATE summer! Even with window fans running and an enormously loud floor fan, it is unbearably hot. We do have a window air conditioner but because of overwhelming financial concerns we have not been running it. It really only helps in the room it's in anyway. Â Like the OP, I tend to be indoors more, but I make myself go outside. Doing errands is very nice these day because other people/businesses have air conditioning on!:D Â And, again like Daisy, I am waiting for autumn, although fall where we live can be just like summer.:glare: When there is snow on the ground, I will not be complaining! I would far rather be bundling up in layers than wiping this confounded, non-ending sweat continuously.:001_smile: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cathmom Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 I hate summer too. The last couple of days we have had temps that are still hot (90 or so) without being in-your-face, knock-you-over hot, and it's just so wonderful! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kwickimom Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 I HATE summer with a passion. Thankfully my dad bought us one of those easy set pools. Its not even that deep, like 3 feet, but we sit in it everyday. We go out about 10 am and the kids ride their bikes while I runa round and tend to all the animals and weed really quick, all in our swimsuits. Then we jump in the pool for about 1/2 hour. Its great to enjoy the sunshine. Its stinks to be doing work out there when its so hot, but the pool is our reward. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mommee & Baba Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 We dislike the hot humid and sticky summer months here too!! Our ac can't keep up and the fans running constantly do help but the min. we step outside it's like breathing in a muggy dishwasher! LOL!! HORRIBLE Â My poor littles have been wanting to go out and play and I'll find the best times between the yucky weather so they can get out atleast 30min every couple of days..even if it's after dinner before it starts getting dark... Â I'm counting down the days til it's autumn too! I want homemade breads, soups, stews and crockpot meals..I'm tired of heavy meals on hot summer days...and I can't stand salads all week long either!!

lisamarie Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 I'm in full agreement. I will be very thankful when summer is over. I don't do heat very well. But I also have found that summers are not relaxing at all. We are always running around doing "fun things" because I don't make our home time sacred like I do during the school year.

LibraryLover Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 (edited) I hear you. It's been unbelievably hot. I have wanted to stay home at times, but to do so every day would be unhealthy for me and my family. Sometimes I have to put one foot in front of the other and go. People survived before AC and people are managing now. I remind myself that many people have to work in this heat or they and/or their families won't eat. I have animals that need care, and a garden (which makes a big difference in nutritional intake even through the winter as I do 'put up' some food.) Â Staying home all the time would send the wrong message to my kids. "If it's too hard, sit on your bum". I personally have difficulty in the cold; my whole body aches in it, but I still go out in it; I laugh at myself...how many layers does one need to sled? lol I seriously could hibernate for three months, but I don't think it's good for me. It's easy. It's not even doable given that I don't live in a little house on the prarie. (Which I can't even imagine. The Long Winter could bring on panic attacks. I can't even go there, it's so depressing. Poor Mama). Edited August 23, 2010 by LibraryLover Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hsmom3tn Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 Yep, I hate summer, too. It's very hot and humid here. When you step outside, the humidity hits you as if you walked into a wall. It'll take your breath away. If I move an inch, I start to sweat. I can't stand for my clothes and hair to be sticking to me. Yuck. :glare: Â We don't do outdoor things, but we don't stay in the house all the time. There is a bowling alley around the corner that lets the kids bowl free during the summer months. Our local science museum gives out free memberships during the summer, too. We go to the movies. My kids do things with friends of ours that like to be outdoors, so they can get out even when I want to stay in. My son is a Boy Scout, and they still do things in the summer. They have been to the water park a few times, too. Â The heat is the reason that we school all year, though. We do a lot of school during the summer since we don't get out much. Then, we can take off school a lot during the fall and winter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll let them up a couple of inches in the morning in a few rooms to get LIGHT!! But, by afternoon they are down again to help keep out the heat. We have 4 ceiling fans, 2 stand fans, window ac, house ac and maybe I'm missing something.:lol:  This goes on each year and I've noticed I've gained weight so this year, I've tried to get out more, but still it's hard.

Daisy Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 (edited) I have seasonal affective disorder.

We make raisins here by just laying the grapes on paper in the sun. It probably takes 20 minutes. :lol: Â I remember some science experiment we did once where we were supposed to measure the rate of evaporation of water on a plate, checking it every hour.

Ravin Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 For me, the first part of summer isn't too bad (it's a dry heat!), but once monsoon season hits...ugh! It's hot, it's miserable, and I don't want to set foot outside during the day. Our yard looks like the desert (the actual desert, not "desert landscaping"--which means there are a LOT of weeds this time of year!), and since I work most mornings, there's no chance for me to get out there while temperatures are semi-reasonable to pull them.

Maverick_Mom Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 I hate summer, too. Â It's funny -- you hear about people who are depressed in the winter but who love summer. I'm the opposite. While I have the typical winter doldrums after Christmas and before spring, it's summer when I really feel down. I don't like the heat and humidity; I don't care for cooking dinner on the grill (except for the relative ease of it); I don't like going to the lake or the beach when it's like a sauna outside and there are crowds. Summer in general is just oppressive, and everything seems like a chore. I think I'd much rather take a month or six weeks off during the fall, when it's so pleasant to be outside, than take a "summer" break when I'm not going to enjoy myself no matter what I'm doing. It's like slogging through quicksand. Â There's something about fall, when the world returns to some semblance of order, that makes me snap to attention, helps me think more clearly and focus. Â Weird, I guess, what a little cool air will do for you. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of my children also has outdoor allergy issues that trigger her asthma and it is easier to keep her comfortable if we stay inside as well although she is my child that would stay outdoors 24/7 if we let her.

Also, if something is bothering me, it will bother me more than on a hot sunny day but seems like if it's raining or at least overcast, I can think it through and believe that things will work out, everything will be okay.

Â We had several brutal heat wave weeks where the humidex was as high as 116 (47 C). I have lived in Southern Ontario most my life and in no way was the heat unusual. It gets very hot and humid here during the summer months. If you move to Canada I recommend sticking to the east coast, west coast or the northern Territories because everything in between is usually hot during the summer.
