Normally, as a gardener, I never complain about rain. It's an opportunity to take a break from my normal morning garden rounds, plus, free water? Bring it on! Not to mention that rain water is much softer and warmer than water out of the hose so is better for the plants and soil.
But, this was supposed to be the week I am moving soil out of the way in order to get ready to build the new retaining wall. This was on my May to do list and guess what, I haven't got around to it yet! But the grandparents are lined up for babysitting this week-end and that's probably going to be the only opportunity this year I will have to get this project done. Please, please, stop raining!!
