Why are we never happy?

Why are we Swedes never happy when it comes to the weather? For the last year everybody has been complaining about how last summer rained away and how important it is to get some sun during the summer. Now one year forward and everybody is complaining about the terribly drought since it hasn't rained since May 1. Also with the temperatures around 25 degrees and up for the last couple of day people are now talking about the terrible heatwave. Come on, this is ridiculous! Why can't we just be happy and enjoy the nice weather for once? It will not last for long. Or are we the same as the people living on the British Isles? The weather is usually effect us all since it's so bad, so when there for once is some good weather we don't know how to appreciate it.

Anyhow, I'm probably being very much non-Swedish, but I'm enjoying the recent warm weather tremendously and no rain, well it will come. If not now, it sure will come in October again and there will be plenty of it. Just relax and enjoy what we have at the moment.
