My gardens, or lack-there-of, are quite a disappointment this year. I just didn't have the energy to get outside this spring, and haven't had an opportunity to get out there since the little man's been born (who shall henceforth be known as DJ ;)
My dad came and did some weed-whacking a few weeks ago and pulled the weeds from in and around these two beds, but that's about all that had been done. We had nothing but rain for the entire month of May, I'm talking rain for all but like 4 days in the month. And then no rain for June. July has had a little, but I think we're still down about 3 inches from average. Everything in pots died.
Joe's work schedule and the crazy hot heat and high humidity have made it difficult to mow even. I think we've mowed three times. Or I should say he has. I haven't done anything. Our yard looks awful!

| dead herbs... |

| more dead herbs... |
 |
| overgrown beds... |
 |
| all the strawberries went to waste... |
 |
| no weeding done. no flowers planted... |
 |
| out for a walk, assessing the sadness... |
 |
| herbs I bought at the farmers market to replace the ones I killed. |
