Beryl made landfall in Texas sometime this weekend and now it is on a track to hit us square with buckets of rain. We will go from needing rain to wishing it will go away in the next couple of days, with forecasts putting the amount anywhere between 1 to 3 inches. For this time of year, that is a ludicrous amount of rain for a month, let alone two days.

Our dying grass and garden projects will rejoice and then cry out for mercy, and we will only be able to sit and watch as it happens. We remain powerless against these forces as it must be our lot in life.

I am glad to see the green popping back out but I hope everyone stays safe and sound through the bulk of it.
