Weaknesses

It is onion ordering time again.  I promised myself I wouldn't overdo it this year.  I managed to partially keep that promise.  I didn't order 5000 leeks again this year.  Actually, I didn't put any leeks on my order form, but when I dropped the order off at the onion coop site I was asked if I would consider ordering some leeks if they didn't have enough for a full order to get the best price.  Okay, I weakened and agreed.

Regardless of the leek situation, I will still have nearly 700 onion plants to put into the ground the week of March 12.  My mind is aware that I need to get out there and have the beds prepared for their arrival.  My body is balking at that idea since the weather has been so totally unpredictable this year.  Now the battle begins.  Who will win:  The mind, or the body.
