Hi everyone! I hope you’re all well. Today is Wednesday, and it’s time for another post in the Wednesday Weekly Blogging Challenge hosted by Long and Short Reviews. If you would like to participate in the challenge, you can find the topics for 2025 here, and if you would like to see what others have said about this week’s topic, you can do so here.

Favourite Things to Do in the Summer

Honestly, I vehemently dislike summer. It’s not that I don’t like being warm—I do; I enjoy being warm and cosy inside, but only if it’s cold outside. I always think that when it’s the middle of summer and blazing hot, no matter what you do, you can never cool down enough. Whereas, when it’s icy cold, you can layer up your clothing and feel snug as a bug in a rug.

I also don’t like the brightness in the summer. I enjoy waking up to dark mornings and going to sleep in the dark, too. I generally go to bed at around 10 pm, and often, in the summer, it’s not dark yet by then.

I suppose regarding today’s topic, I should say what I actually like to do in the summer. So here goes.

I like to moan and groan about how damn hot it is.

I like to sit mournfully by a window, lamenting the fact that it hasn’t rained in (however many) days.

I like to stick my head in the fridge. (There have even been times in summers past that I’ve seriously considered clearing the food out of the chest freezer and climbing in, but I’ve been told by my ever-sensible husband that this would be “going too far.”)

Oh, and I guess, the usual… writing and reading if I can focus on not broiling to death.

Well, that’s it for post 24!

I’m looking forward to discovering what you all like to do in the summer.

But for now, as always, thank you for stopping by and spending some time with me today.

Until next time,

George
