Same here in southwest CT. We started the summer with near drought conditions, then it rained and rained and destroyed all my potted annuals. Now it’s back to being dry. No happy medium this year.

I did! For me, today is Tuesday but it's Wednesday and payday isn't for another two days but it's actually tomorrow and two days is Thursday but it's really Friday and I'll have a short weekend to relax and recuperate, finally!

Our lawn and my gardens were all looking great until July hit. Then despite a few short-lived downpours the weather got hotter and drier. I'm hoping for at least some rain this month, though the forecast is not looking helpful....

I hope you get the weather your garden needs - I wish we could have sent you some of our August rain!

I believe it -- I'm doing through DampRid at a rate of knots trying to keep my clothes closets from getting fusty!
