Sidebar Note 1/14/10
So how are those 2010 goals and resolutions coming along?
I have done the math and figure I can still get everything done if I am able to wean myself from sleeping eight hours a day. If I can get it down to about two hours of sleep a day, I have a shot at getting everything done.
To make the whole situation even more acute, I braved the freezing temps to survey the garden the other day. Oy. Panic set in pretty quickly. I figure I’ll need to start over in several areas. I’m also still trying to figure out where to plunk the tomatoes this year since fusarium wilt has attacked the tomatoes in the potager the past two years.
So I told myself, if I can just do one garden-related activity a day until spring, I will at least be that much less behind. Order seeds…sketch out the rotation in one of the raised beds…turn the compost…
I’m still in a panic though. Is it just me?

No not just you! Although my garden is a fraction of yours I am in the same dilemma. I have heard of gardeners keeping track of the plots year to year using tracing paper, writing down what they have where, etc. I’ll be trying that this year!

My resolutions are going great, as I resolved to NOT do any more New Year’s resolutions! So far, 100% success rate.
Good luck with that 2 hours of sleep a day thing Robin.

Well, since we have only so many hours in a day, and only a pair of hands, it makes sense to take it slow and easy. I try to work outside a bit every day. If I am involved in an overwhelming project I just tackle a little patch at a time. Slow and easy, and that makes it fun and do-able.
