Well we are into the 8th day of the month and 4 of them has been rainy. Not just showers, downpours. It's still so wet here when you walk thru the yard water squishes up. I did get my early garden planted although I feel the majority of it is now in the Mississippi River. Too muddy to even get down there. I can tell my onions are growing but as far as seeing if the carrots or potatoes are up I can't.
Been working though the past few days in the flower beds. So many pretties are coming up, the redbuds are in bloom the trees are slowly putting out, hostas are peeping thru, some tulips are blooming, my bleeding heart is beautiful.
Still spreading mulch, working on the north side, got maybe a 1/3 of it done and still will have alot of mulch left over. The best thing I ever did was call our local electric company and get them to bring me that.
Yep still falling and each fall I seem to hurt myself worse and worse. I move so slow now with the walker but I plan on being outside every chance I get.
Like yesterday I spread some more mulch, put down 4 gallon of Roundup, got the blueberries cleaned out and coffee grounds around them, don't sound like much but consider how slow I am I felt I got alot done not counting my housework.
They speak of more rain this week, Where was this at last June, July, and August?
? I know we are never satisfied. We have to take what comes our way.
Hopefully in a couple of weeks I will have some more pictures to post.

Give it a couple more weeks and there will be plenty of pictures. ;D Gonna try to get out there tomorrow and plant some cabbage and maybe my squash and some shelly beans, if the ground is dry enough. It looks like it dried up pretty good today.
