I did catch them saying on the news that we are likely looking at another 1-1 1/2 inches tomorrow, so that should be....something. There were more peeks of the sun on the 7-day forecast, so there's hope on the horizon! I'll just keep keeping an eye on what's going on outside, making sure nothing ends up in standing water and keep playing with my indoor plants until I decide we've had our last frost. Oh, and I probably should dig out the rest of the yard sometime this next couple weeks so I have places to plant all the stuff I still need to get in the ground!Chris K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/12054057713267875769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4007490949582525706.post-73457458874376203692011-04-26T23:11:19.262-04:002011-04-26T23:11:19.262-04:00Sounds like you are in the same boat as me.

But after receiving 5 inches of rain over the weekend with more to come the ground is just too wet to plant the plants I bought this weekend.Lisa - the Granola Catholichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09020431743182581746noreply@blogger.com
