Debbie, relax. Gardening is not about keeping up with the Joneses, or
planting everything exactly right this year. Gardening is a lifelong
learning experience. You'll make mistakes this year, and learn from them.
Next year you'll make other mistakes. It happens to all of us. But God
isn't hovering around, ready to rap your knuckles and call you stupid.
That's up to you to do yourself, if you're so inclined.<VBG> Margaret L
