with tasks of lower priority According to Wikipedia
- In layman's terms, put off today what you can do tomorrow
For most of us procrastinating is not a good thing

Aside from being my birthday, I had my garden work cut out for me
I needed to get my 100+ seedlings transplanted outside to the garden. The weather had been in the mid 70's for more than a week and a half and the overnight low's were in the 40's. Everything was in my favor to "do it now!"
Did I mention it was my birthday?
There had been a blustery wind for more than 24 hours
I must have watched 3 movies before I decided, the heck with it
I'll do it tomorrow!

The wind is still blowing,
the sun is now shining but that darned wind chill factor has put me on
pause. If you are familiar with "Old Farmer's Almanac" you know
everything in gardening follows Moon cycles. Transplanting should be
done after the Full Moon up until the New Moon.
Most
growers will tell you, the Seasons are short in the Northern regions
therefore sticking to a strict schedule is mandatory for successful
harvests.

What crazy weather we continue to have!
I did the transplanting about April 14 and I plain just didn't procrastinate long enough!
There
isn't anything to take a picture of with my acorn squash. My poor
butternut squash... I am glad that I have over 100 butternut squash
seeds. I have replanted this hill and if you look extremely close at
the lower right hand corner, you can see a little seedling just breaking
ground.
Most of all "Thank You" for visiting
