I believe most people consider the summer months are a great time to relax and recharge, and they can also be quite productive.Yes,they are summer lovers.But I just hate it when it's hot. It's only in the middle May ,but it's becoming hotter and hotter.Yes,summer is coming.It's really hot outside.I got sunburns already,and my the skin of my face is a little itchy .Really I'm not fond of summer ,I 'd rather wrap myself in cold winter. Do you like summer?How's the weather there in your place?Any smart ways to spend summer?

I love the summer, I wish it was still warm here, we had a week of absolutely gorgeous hot weather, but today it has dropped in temperature and is dull, cloudy and raining again. I hate the winter, I will be glad to see the back of it for a while, I always feel the cold a lot and spend most of it wearing at least 2 layers of clothing.

I love summer - hate winter! But with my fair skin I can't spend much time in the sun so it's usually inside with the air conditioning on and outside in the late day with the kids either in the pool or just playing. I love to have a barbeque and sit under a nice shady tree with friends and family!

I don't like the heat either. Its so humid here in the late spring, summer, and early fall. I don't feel like doing anything when its hot. I love the fall when it just starts to turn cool and the leaves are changing...and I like winter too, especially if it snows. It is getting hot now but was very chilly this morning...down in the 40's. Its about 80 degrees now but I feel like its hotter so it must be the humidity.

If I hated summer, I would spend most of my time indoors working ro I would go bowling or something fun like that is indoors. You could also go skating too. I kind of like summer and getting a tan and going swimming in our pool. My husband and I love to ride our four wheelers also. We have some yard projects to complete this year also. Our weather in Indiana was 67 degrees today and tomorrow it will be 77. Next week it will go up to the 80's and we should be in the 90's soon.

My boyfriend is promising a couple of camping weekends. My daughters and I go to family camp at a Bible camp for a week each summer. Otherwise, I am off work for the summer which means no paychecks. I am in hopes of upping what I am making online for sure! Life has been so busy that I haven't gotten all the much time on here. As far as the heat goes...I'm waiting for it. I know that I will be complaining of being hot even tho I am promising myself that I won't. See, I moved in to my mothers basement in February and its been very cold down here!! Its a full basement but not finished. It probably will be just right for me down here over the summer tho. Marsha

Hm... summer is really hot days... I actually dont really like to spend time outside, because i dont want get sunburn, and not enjoy having perspiration in the sun. Anyway, im taking my summer class, so my days are not that boring. I do also join some music lesson like vocal class. I do wanna take violin or flute lesson. I have many novels which are waiting for me to read them all... I do have some recipe books that attempts me to cook the same like in the images. Maybe you can buy those books and try to cook or making salad or juice, or ice cream, or anything that "cooling" you for the hot days... or try to cook asian food (japanese and chinese food are delicious...) I also bought some foreign language books (basic grammar and conversation) like japanese nipongo, korean hanguk, and mandarin books. Or if you not interested with those languages, learning spanish, german, italy, and french may sound good. I can full my brain with those languages, learning something new... so after summer, at least i knew more new languages than before. How about paint your house with new color for your wall, arrange your furnitures with new style... you can get inspiration from magazine and also internet. How about practice to throw bottle as professional bartender? hehe... its sounds crazy, but once you knew how to throw and catch it nicely, people think that you're great! ahahah... Or try to design new style for tshirt? You have internet as your references for create your unique style. If its nice, maybe your friend will be attracted to your design! Who knows that you may come into business... ahahah now im learning how to write long sentences with korean letters, and now im pretty good in it. hehe! my friend was amazed by me when i showed it to them. Hmm... actually you can do many things in summer... Let the sunshine refreshes your mind also! Happy summer!!!

Spring is my favorite, but I like summer as well. Summer's here in southeast U.S. are very hot, sometimes going over 100degrees.
