Rain, Rain Go Away

It's been raining literally since the beginning of June 2009. Almost everyday last month it has rained, pouring out. I cannot believe how much water has fallen from the sky this month. The temperatures have been mild at best and the summer doesn't even seem to have started yet!

We finished planting our garden a few days ago, we do have a few more potted vegetables to plant, but for the most part they are completed. I hope they don't drown. I just heard another thundercloud overhead roaring.

This is purely ridiculous. We don't live in the northwestern part of the US, we live in crazy New England. I just want summer to start soon. I mean, even the air conditions need to run, because of the humidity outside, but it's raining, what's it worth to keep the air on if it's not even sunny outside.

The fourth of July is supposed to be fairly warm, about 80 degrees, cloudy though, chance of a storm. Every day seems like a storm. Our garden better survive. I think it will despite the rain because the seeds have already had a chance to grow while in the pots. This year we didn't seem to get the chance to plant seeds because of all this moisture.

Anyway, rain is good for the soil and soul, but enough already, where's our sun?
