I remember May being very turbulent in Virginia when I was growing up. We would flip-flop between great days and cold rainy days. Usually by the very end of the month. the weather turned more stable and warmer weather settled in. That back and forth, always made it iffy for those of us trying to start an early tan in our backyards!! LOL!!!

Well ladies we are almost at freezing tonight and maybe an inch of snow for Friday night. We haven't been to our little cabin yet all spring. Such nasty wet weather I have never seen----such as Winnie said ---when we were young in the mountains. I remember cold rainy summers with my bell bottoms soaking wet and slugs over taking our gardens. Then hot springs and summers the last few years. Each is bad.

Unfortunately here in the Chicago area we are looking to dip down to the 20's for a few nights and only 40's and 50's during the day. Our final frost date is May 15 and it looks like nature is allowing winter a few more hits. I will plant my begonias and impatiens after the cold snap ends. Hopefully spring will finally stick around for all of us soon!

Grace, we had a very large wind storm on Wednesday too. It came out out of nowhere. I had to fish real quick and close all my windows because it was whipping my blinds around. I also had to move our new tree that we haven’t planted yet into the garage because the wind had blown it over too. It felt like our house was going to end up in the land of Oz! No rain for us though. Stay safe in all this crazy weather.

This year, many Farmgirls from all over are having late and unusual Spring weather. Hopefully this will end soon as everyone ,who is still freezing , are SICK AND TIRED of being cooped up with the heat on and winter clothes on. Gardens need planting and the windows need opening and fresh air rushing in.

I wish a storm would break loose here and drive away the high humidity. If it would thunder and lighten I would feel a lot better. Maybe by midnight it'll get here.
