4th of July sales are looming. I barely noticed the solstice. I'm failing as a secular pagan. Chaos still reigns at home.

I planted beans a month ago; BEANS, big seeded beans, not a one came up.
I haven't plucked a single stalk of rhubarb. My three plants are barely alive,
After I realized all hope was gone for the beans, i gathered what flower seeds I had, a mix of sunflowers, cosmos and my pumpkin seeds. I planted and then we got 5" of rain over three or four days. If nothing shows over the next few days, then the whole back garden is a failure this year.
I have tomatoes and peppers in pots; there is lots of greenery at least. Also have gotten a few snap peas.

Then we have what counts as a heat wave here, Three days in the mid 90's; yesterday we topped out at 96; that doesn't happen much here. But the humidity is very high and though we aren't in the 100's, it is still swampy.

I lost so many beans last year! I still haven't recovered. And not having much luck with seeds anywhere. Is the Earth giving up? I wouldn't blame her. I finally got two Moonflower sprouts like three months ago, out of MANY seeds. One disappeared. The other one is still an inch and a half high.

Nineties and humid is much worse than low hundreds and not.

Sympathy for the chaos. Let me know how you're doing, when you feel you can.
