We have not had a day without rain. It rained all day yesterday, and all night and it's raining this morning. In fact, I went out to pick asparagus yesterday when I saw we got a slight break, but the rain poured down as I walked to the asparagus patch. Three stalks of asparagus got picked anyway.
The garden tilling was not done as we were planning yesterday. May is finicky, so I'm not going to guess. I'll just keep making back up plans and get other "stuff" done around here.
I have enjoyed the little bit of porch time (most days have been on the chilly side), sitting and listening to the rain. The flowers are enjoying the rain too, as well as the herb garden. I'm just glad we have not planted the vegetable garden yet, although seeds would have been a blessing to have gotten in before this rain. The evenings are still in the low 40's, and too cold for tomato plants or other vegetable plants.
Right now, it's just a saturated muddy mess, so we can't even get into the garden at all.

We also had a few days of rain, two days of sunshine and PERFECT termperatures and tomorrow is rain again. The farmers need it desperately though and the couple of days break gave it time ot soak in. I'm loving the open door and windows too.
Blessings and hugs,
Betsy
We've had a boat load of rain but it has been mostly hot unless it is actually raining. The humidity is high and some seeds were sown, others not quite yet because I don't want the heavy rain washing them away.
Betsy, we have not had a break from the rain, and it's colder than usual.
Anne in the kitchen, if we had planted vegetable seeds, they would have had to be re-planted again after this dries up (if it does in time). There has been no break in rain nor cold weather this May.
