Rain, Rain, Go Away

I’ve been excited about planting some seeds out in my backyard. A few vegetables, some flowers. But the weather has not placated me. I’ve been waiting for the rain to let up. I’m probably a little early on some things anyway [and a little late on others] but once I decided to do it, I just wanted to do it! The trees that crowd my backyard aren’t going to make it easy for them to get sun. [My tiny backyard has 4 trees, not to mention the ones that come over the fence.] This may not work, we’ll find out!

This is my first attempt at this, all gardening advice is welcome!
