Rainy day and mixed feelings....

Right now it is still raining lightly out and I have mixed feelings about that.

When it rains on a weekend the amount of stuff we can do is greatly reduced. Which means I have a lazy time. We did 4 hours or so of field work before the rains started yesterday. It rained HARD! which watered in the plants we put in the ground, but means that it is still to mucky to get out there and do much. It is nice to have a little rest, but there is SO MUCH to do!

It has been a VERY rainy year, in case you had not noticed. I am NOT complaining, because the type of relatively steady rain we have had since May is a rarity in most years, but it does mean that field chores get reprioritized and things get put off. This is the kind of year when our "real" jobs really hurt us, because if the weather is nice on Thursday and Friday we are still really limited to what we can get done between 5 and 9... Oh, and you want supper? Take away another hour...

We still need to pick for today's members, so around 12 we will go out and get that done, picking in the mud means washing will be a pain, but other then picking and starting some cabbage seed for the fall that is all there is to do...

So this morning I have some time to get caught up on some reading!
