Summer has always been my favorite season. Snow in the winter may be pretty, and it is a nice change of scenery, but I am definitely missing the warmth and freedom of summertime right about now. Here are some signs that you are a summer person too.

1. You miss warm weather.

Those negative temperature wind chills are not enjoyable.

2. Your winter wardrobe consists of sweatpants and hoodies.

It’s practically impossible to dress nicely and still be comfortable in the cold.

3. You love the beach.

Longing to dig your toes in the warm sand?

4. You actually miss sweating.

Perspiration is a sign of hard work, right?

5. You are embarrassed of your pale skin.

Whether you burn or tan, it definitely adds color to your skin.

6. You want to go swimming.

Oceans, pools, lakes – which is your favorite?

7. You miss drinking icy drinks.

Making ice-cold lemonade is just not the same in the winter.

8. You dread running outside.

Being a long-distance runner is not fun when it is 20 degrees outside.

9. You want to put the sunroof on the car down.

That thing has been shut for too long.

10. You are tired of keeping a fire going in the house.

Sitting by the fire is nice, but it doesn’t beat soaking up the sun outside.

11. You don’t like it getting dark so early.

More daylight = more happiness.
