I don’t know how folks live like this, then these intermediate seasons in between the giant ones – winter time & summer time – are agitated for me; And yet, my neighbors are all celebrating, however i couldn’t help however overhear them talking about the lower utility bills, the fresh air availability, & the ability to spend quality outdoor time separate from any major heatstroke concerns… & the whole time I was scoffing to myself.
I literally cannot understand how Fall brings them all these benefits, when it’s the complete opposite for me, and first of all, in the fall you never know how to judge the temperature requirements for the afternoon when you wake up.
It’s consistently chilly cold in the afternoon, causing you to put on a ton of layers to stay hot as you crank up the heating system to stay comfortable. Then, a few hours later, it’s total chaos when the temperature has inevitably shifted, then usually it’s much warmer as the sunlight comes out & everything has to change again! Your clothing has to be swapped out & your temperature control has to be turned down swiftly. If you leave your windows open, you risk natural temperature control leaving you with a chilly cold or rain-soaked home, however not to mention, I can’t care about the fresh & crisp fall air like my neighbors… because I have awful fall dust sensitivities, everything in the air makes me cough & sneeze all season. I have no option however to rely on my HVAC system & piles of clothing. The whole thing is so stressful, I just pray for the solid cold hot & cold temperatures of winter.
