22. I find the heat to be exhausting

I can certainly understand your not liking the cold-- in California it does get cold but not that cold (compared to back east and midwest). Rain, not snow. in winter and mild springs.

Summer is hot but it's a dry heat-- far preferable, from what I've heard, to humidity
