Lordy, Kitty!  And I am still struggling with my handful of catalogs.
 Being so durn behind on all aspects of life, I have yet to make my
usual database so I can start the horribly painful cutting routine. 
Even if I had enough $$ to order everything I've checked, there's no
way I could find time to plant it.  The initial go through is just
kid in a candyshop with eyes much bigger than either pocket or
tummy:-)

Finding that poem was really timely in my case and looks like in
yours as well....
