I felt we were really cheated by autumn this year which is why winter feels much more miserable than before. It's not even July and I'm already over this shit

Put the blinds completely down last night to get a truly good night's sleep and it worked a bit too well, I'm struggling to get out of bed. But there is more reading and writing to do, and crucially, a presentation at 2 (that I have yet to rehearse)

At least I'm not feeling anxious like I was last night. I'm giving myself until 9:30 and then it's action stations! 🦾

100% agree with autum.

It was too warm and then straight to winter.

No chance to enjoy the coolness for a proper amount of time.

I could tell because I went straight from summer clothes to rugging up like an Eskimo.

Went from shorts and t-shirt to trackies and hoodie, without the usual shorts+hoodie combo.

Turned the heating on very early this year.

Same, didn't get much of a chance to just wear long sleeved clothes without additional layers or mid-weight jumpers etc. Just went straight from t-shirts to puffer jackets it seems like.
