Overzealous

Maybe I'm being overzealous. Possibly even foolish.

Went ahead and formed one new row (split in half, resulting in two smaller rows). Then planted some seeds. For now it's just potatoes, broccoli, spinach and carrots.

It's really a test. If I start seeing some success, it will be expanded.

I figure the worst that can happen is that nothing grows. If that happens, part of the garden is formed and ready for later planting. However, the Farmer's Almanac says now is a good time to plant root crops. (Though that was in the "planting by the moon" section.) The spinach already in the mounds is still alive and growing. And last year the broccoli accelerated when the temperature dropped. Worth a try. May learn something for future reference.

Going to build fewer trellises this year but make them much taller. I was surprised at how well the green beans did and would have done better if given vertical space. May not bother with bush beans this time around.

Went and filled out an application this morning for another agency. Still can't shake the negative vibe from the one I reactivated with. They've called a lot but it's just there. Best not to ignore it. Have a better vibe about this one. Getting the idea that either my current agency isn't trying or they're being ignored by the facilities. This new agency has more facilities on contract. Maybe once again my old agency is going down. Not such a surprise with the fact that they rarely get into the office on time and often leave early. Actually heard comments from one hospital that they have problems getting someone on the phone at times.

No call to work tonight. Go to the new agency and finish paperwork and pee in a bottle tomorrow.
