How does the weather affect you?

@Magpie22

I don't like summer at all either because I melt. I finally bought A/C last year after 53 years of not having one. I think I react negatively to the darker days of winter mentally. My mood does seem to lift with the sunnier days. We are still getting plenty of rain here. Looking forward to the warmer days of late September.

I prefer warmer weather.. to me this means comfort outdoors, swimming (beach, creek, swimming holes). I would struggle in cold climates where it rains alot.

I do like to think of rain as the earth being cleansed. Washing away all we no longer need & watering the yard. I'd image if I were a business owner where weather contributed to operation/ income etc I would not have the same perspective 🤔

Hey all,

What a great question @Magpie22 and the other Moderators and I were just talking about the change of seasons!

I really like winter and the cold, rainy, dark days we have here in Melbourne which is not the norm for most people. I grew up in the desert and it was both very hot and cold but mainly very hot and warm during the day time. I love the fashion in Melbourne winter and have a collection of winter jackets that I love to wear.

It's not that I don't like summer and I do very well in the dry heat rather than the humidity up north. My family lives in Far North Queensland and so did I before Melbourne but the humid weather up there is really hard for me to take. Particularly now when I have lived in Melbourne for about 30 years.

Here's a fun fact!! I usually sleep on my couch on my balcony in winter and summer. I love to rug up on a really cold winter night and feel to cold air on my face poking out from under the blanket. I don't understand the science I just do what makes me happy!!

Take care

@RiverSeal I love the idea of sleeping on your balcony! I’d do it year-round too.

Love that @Magpie22 Enjoy! RiverSeal ❤️
