I generally love summer time. Longer days, sunny, warm weather, lazy mornings, no school for the kids, fun festivals and outdoor concerts, a cold drink on the balcony in the evening, vacations and all the other great stuff we tend to save for summer. But there are some things I just don't like. So here is my list of summer things I can do fine without:
- The extra frizzy hair from the humidity - yep, pretty much reliving the 80's
- Tanning lines where there were no bathing suit... guess I didn't get rid of all the rolls in time for bathing suit season
- People having rendezvous on the beach and leaving condoms behind....which my son subsequently finds and pics up with a "Look at this mom, what a cool looking balloon!"
- Speedos. Really, they should be reserved for swimming competitions. Period!
- Frigid air conditioners. If it is 90 degrees outside, we really do not need to cool down to 65 degrees inside!
- Mosquitoes. They love me! It is not mutual!!
- Sightseers in rental cars. If you really want to see the place, hop on a tourist bus or walk. Don't hold up traffic because you want a picture of whatever building...some of us have things to do and places to get to.
- Ice cream...just kidding. I could never make it a whole summer without ice cream, or winter for that sake. That is just wishful thinking!
Hope you are all enjoying your summer so far!
