Guess what? It's raining

The rain is back. For a couple of days, at least. I'm glad to have had a few dry days to cut the grass. I wonder when the next opportunity will be? With all this rain, it's growing at a faster clip than it has in recent years.

I had enough good weather to get all sections of the yard cut last week.

The rain is also slowing down our garden contractor's work, not to mention his having to make up for lost time due to covid lockdowns over the past year or so. He originally told me that he thought he could get the work (removing trees, shrubs, and renovating our garden path) done last December. Then it became end of June/beginning of July). I haven't heard from him yet. And no word from the contractor who's going (we hope) to do the deck renovation. It's been about eight months since we approved his estimate. I called a few months ago and was assured that we're on the list and would be scheduled soon. I'm going to have to look up the word "soon" in the dictionary because I thought it meant something else.
