On the one hand I’m really excited because I absolutely love summer and especially really hot days. If we get a 40+ on a day I’m not doing anything, I really will just sit out on the porch all day drinking lemonade, or depending on how close it is to Chrissy time, maybe a cheeky one of those Bundaberg things with the lids you can’t put back on
But on the other hand, I remember how bad the bushfires of 19-20 were, and black Saturday from stories passed down from my mum (we were in the country and I was a baby at the time). They ruined so many people’s homes and many people’s lives, and that’s not something I particularly want to happen again
