I'm thinking the weight Jenn has added onto her frame over the last year has made summer more unbearable to walk the parks now.
I know when I was 24 and weighed about as much as a feather the heat felt so good. Not so much anymore.
That's all bull. It's no hotter this summer than last.
Yep. I'm thinking the same. She's gained a few pounds and, coupled with hormonal changes she's likely experiencing nearing 40 (I don't think she's pregnant, but I could be wrong), she's probably feeling the heat a bit more nowadays than in the past. Whenever I'd carry a bit more weight, the heat would be 10x worse than when I lost the weight.
Plus, while it's no hotter than last year, like you referenced, they started going on staycations in August and remember what was different from last year vs. this year? LESS PEOPLE.
The parks were pretty empty in parts (EPCOT in the afternoon was almost a ghost town some days we'd go and especially if it'd rain a bit). She just couldn't pass up the opportunity to be in the parks with VERY LITTLE attendance at that point. (also probably less stressful for her to be seen - you know Jenn and her aNXieTY). Then, it went into the fall / winter and got cooler.
Now that it's heating up again, the Queen is ready to sit on her ass and be in the air-conditioned house with Jackson (where she should have been the entire - or majority - of the time anyways!) and let Tim go out and sweat his balls off for content (which is his job anyways).
I knew something was up when they left LL to go "home for lunch" when LL only opened at 10 a.m. that day and Nona is not exactly around the corner. Blamed it on Tim but, in reality, they were both probably frigging hot and Jenn was probably the one who prompted leaving. The other day, at the end of the DS / English breakfast vlog, she also made a very interesting point of "the sun really took it out of me [today]; it was so hot."
TLDR:
SO - if she begins to stay home more and let Tim go solo, it'll once again be - Jenn does
