Mood Boosters for the Summer


14 years ago 0 1044 logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo 0
I like to walk outside as the sun is setting (not so hot).  The dog likes it too.
I like the rain too Pete, if it isn't accompanied by thunder and lightening, I can enjoy a nice stand in the rain, walk in the rain.
I like the birds, the fresh air, and the flowers blooming.
I like something new this summer, watching my granddaughter play t-ball.  They are so cute.  She's 3. (4 in October).

My Summer mood boosters?
 
If it is sunny, sitting inside (sorry to be a downer, but sunshine makes my head ache). I live in the city, and hot days are very unpleasant.
If it is raining (and I live in England so that is quite frequent), I like to go out in it and get refreshed. I also get a perverse kick out of all the sun-lovers moaning.

Taking pictures is a summer mood booster for me too. I wish I could eat outside (sounds so nice), but the bees, flies and mosquitoes are just too numerous.

I like to take pictures of flowers, bees, birds...anything nature! I also like to eat outside if weather permits. We have a nice little patio and bbq in our backyard, its always nice to sit out there.

Members,

Now that summer is finally here we can get outside and enjoy the weather! What have you found to be great mood boosters in the summer time?

Here are a few ideas to get the list going:

-Dive into a pool or lake
-Sit outside and enjoy the breeze
-Go for a bike ride
-Go for a picnic
