I've not long returned from an 8 hour shift in the laundry, at the care home I work at. I feel like I have done a few rounds with Mike Tyson! More of the same tomorrow.
Me and my husband have the windows fight. My argument is any robber braving these temps to rob our crappy tv can have it, as long as im cool.1. The constant need to change outfits because it’s too hot to wear jeans but you’re too wobbly to wear shorts.
2. Cannot find a flattering length of shorts anywhere
3. The constant need for suncream
4. The constant need to lather up the kids with suncream
5. Kids moaning about being sticky because of said suncream
6. Kids moaning they’re hot
7. Reminding kids to wear a hat
8. Reminding kids (and other half) to take a water bottle out
9. Questioning whether you actually just stay in because it’s too hot to venture out
10. The roasting hot house
11. The annual argument with the other half about leaving windows open (“but we’ll get robbed” )
And I’m generally a positive person!
Let’s just leave it at 18-20 degrees shall we? And every other day chuck a bit of a breeze in there so the house can cool down. That would be perfect!
not possible for many people.Just buy a portable AC unit, you can pick one up for about £300
I could almost tolerate warm weather if there was a lovely breezeI HATE this weather! It just makes me sticky and irritable.
It doesn't help that I'm a redhead, so I don't even get a nice sun kissed glow to compensate
The heat must feel different on peoples skin or something? I really don't like being too warm. Plus some people don't seem to sweat.
You have to shower more often, wash your clothes/ hair more often...
And don't get me started on trying on new summer clothes and feeling like a sack of spuds in shorts.
It's just shit.
Bring on Autumn
Same. I can’t tell you how ducking SICK AND TIRED I am of hearing my neighbours shitty music. on repeat, one about packing up your shit and go, one about fucking oh my love where did you go, another about not seeing someone’s name on their phone when they wake up.Anyone else get hot weather anxiety because all the knobs start being more knobby with their anti-social behaviour?
Our street is generally quiet, but the nook I live in has become inhabited by sofa draggers who sit out all day and night, shouting at the top of their voices, having BBQs, kids running about etc. .
I'm praying for a massive storm.
