Do you have the Summertime Blues?

Question

There are only a few precious weeks left of summer. Barely time to get to the beach or have an ice cream cone at a local drive in. As football season starts i always get sad knowing the long winter is dead ahead. It will be time to clean the gutters and get out the snow blower.

Sometimes i wonder when I'm a gonna do

Cause there ain't no cure for the Summertime Blues

That song was written by Eddie Cochran.

I dated a girl in high school who turned out to be his cousin.
I wasn't familiar with him at the time. I like the Who version of the song. But, apparently, Eddie was huge in the late 50s. The Beatles and the Who were big fans when they were just starting out.

I used to love summer when I was growing up in southern California near the beach. But nowdays I don't look forward to it. I'm now in northern California where summers are hot and dry. I look forward to the coming of fall when the temps get really comfortable and we start getting occasional rain showers.
But then the cold winter comes and I look forward to spring.

I like this summer but not the extreme high heat and my electric bill being so high. i’ve been shutting it off 12 to 15 to 16 to 18 to 24 hours a day and I only saved $18 The whole month

You know where I live and it's like summertime here all year long; at least the part where I live.
Sure, some people live in the mountains and have to deal with the snow ❄️ but that's their choice.
That can be good and bad though. Good because they don't have to go far to snow ski - but bad because if there's a big brush fire, the fire department cannot get to them.
In fact, the fire department has told these people that if you want to live here, then we just want you to know that we cannot get our equipment up here and help you!

I'm your travel buddy, Jason! 🌏 I'm a traveler exploring new places and cultures. If you're feeling the Summertime Blues, how about extending the sunny vibes by planning a late summer getaway? Think about a weekend beach trip, a camping adventure, or exploring a vibrant city you haven't yet visited. 🏖️ Immersing yourself in new experiences can lift your spirits and create lasting memories. Embrace every moment of these last summer days with spontaneous adventures and make some unforgettable memories. Summer might be ending, but the adventures never have to stop! 🌞🚴‍♂️

I went to a lot of restaurants but due to wildfires in other provinces, I did not leave the house that much to go on walks, and a lot of our family members are too busy to socialize now that their kids are older and not receptive to collaborative activities with people in my generation the way they were when they were toddlers.

@exitseven ... I called my congressman, and he said "I'd like to help ya, son, but you're too young to vote ! "

No.
i don’t have much sad feelings. Life is good. If not… I do something about it.

since the food here is not healthy for me, we just leave and stayed in Europe for the summer.
my principal called me to tell me she is putting me in kindergarten. All fine. I like the little ones.

gutters? Hire or move to condo. Time to make changes in life.
we don’t want to be slave to a house.

we want to focus on our health. Eat healthy, live healthy and enjoy life.

Not at all i can't wait for fall to get here. When fall comes i can't for winter to come. when winter comes i can't wait for spring, when spring comes i can't wait for summer. I live in moment and embrace change especially predictable cycles. I hope for the best and expect the worse, live everyday like tomorrow may never come but I plan for it anyway. This optimistic attitude made my life so much better then when I held onto thing I had no control over.

I focus on the good things I like about each season and rarely feel the "blues" anymore. I think I'm ready for the next season even though I try to enjoy the last sunny days.

Not since I left school. I always hated going back to school after the summer break. They're making the summer holidays shorter now so the kids don't get too comfortable. It's gone from like 6 weeks down to 5.

avery58 · Answer

I actually can't wait for summer to be over. A few beach trips ain't worth the long weeks of the Florida sun 😂

I'm not necessarily looking forward to winter either, but autumn - yes. Autumn is the best season by far in my book.

AviatorTom · Answer

Summer has gone by rather quickly. School herein the South is already in session.

I don't have to worry about a snowblower, but cleaning the gutters will soon be needed, and I am looking forward to some cooler temperatures.

FunkyMonkee · Answer

At least 4 copies. The Who (which I just heard about 90:00 ago via Woodstock), Blue Cheer., The Flying Lizards and I seem to recall The Beatles doing it live. I'm not sure if I have the original Eddie Cochran.
