Rainmaker

I woke up and the sky was as dark as the early evening sky so I didn't go out to garden. I waited then when it didn't rain after a few hours I went out and got ready to put the rest of the fencing up. I was out for about 3 minutes when I felt a drop of moisture. I thought I was imagining it because I've built up this "rainmaker" paranoia in my head. I found out it wasn't paranoia. It was raining well drizzling. It was crazy, is crazy. Every time I go out it starts to rain or gets dark and seems like rain so I go back in. I should charge states in drought for my rainmaker services because apparently all I have to do is step out for the clouds to form and the wter to fall. Ugh! I am so over this rainy weather. Lucky nothing has suffered tremendously because of it but I will tell you the strawberries started off one size (a much bigger size) and aren't getting past the size of a large pea, now, before they ripen. So things are being affected just not tremendously. Why did it have to be the berries. I've been taking extra good care of them. It sucks. Virgina gets these weird ultra rainy summers every few years but I wish it wasn't the year I decided to start a garden. I would have liked to see what the yields would have been with proper sun and watering. Double UGH!
