It's simply not moving fast enough. Which is exactly why I called Frank. To get perspective. When you have a strong personality, few people have the capacity to tell you the truth. Frank is one of the rare breeds, and he gave me a big ol' kick in the behind the other afternoon.
Lag time is the pits.
Yet Frank reminded me that there's something to be said about patience. You can't plant a seed one day and expect it to sprout the next. I would be the first to tell you that this is something I certainly need to learn. After I planted my summer flower bulbs a few weeks ago, I went out to the garden every day to see what was coming up. That much attention forced me to fertilize, water and get rid of the weeds.
