Am i a sad case?

[nilly71]

I just so excited about the coming year and growing our own veg, fruit and flowers mostly from seed. This will be our first year and i can't wait, i'm actually a bit nervous :-\

Am i a sad case, getting this excited?

I hope to get the complete plot ready for the start of the season as i know it will be a busy one.

Nope, I don't think you are sad at all. I have been told that even experienced gardeners still get a buzz from the onset of the new growing season.

I know I do, but I'm still a newbie compared to others
;D (Still got mud behind my ears)  :o  ::)  ;D

If you're sad, this forum should be re-named Allotments for saddos- I don't think there's anyone here who doesn't get that feeling (along with all the frustration, exhaution, etc as well of course!)

I get to the point where I can't sleep at night because I'm busy planning in my head what i want to do next.

The worst thing is the dream i have where i go to my allotment and everything is perfect....there are no weeds and the grass is like a lawn......!

[saddad]

I definitely am... hence the handle!!  ;D

I get to the point where I can't sleep at night because I'm busy planning in my head what i want to do next.

I'm guilty of that too, particularly when I've been working nights and am trying to convert back to 'days'....so much planning goes on in that 'not quite awake or asleep' time, I'm disappointed when I wake up and realise I haven't actually done any of it yet!!! ::) ;D

[Emagggie]

and I'm another. Isn't it nice to drift off to sleep thinking lovely satisfying thoughts about the season ahead . I plan and plan and plan......

Sado's here, sado's there, sado's every f###ing where, join the sad gang Neil.       :P    ;D ;D ;D

I don't think there is anything sad about enjoying your hobby so much. I still get excited about chosing my seeds, opening the box when it arrives, the first day of spring that's warm enough to sew a row of seeds, picking the first ripe strawberry of the season and eating it straight off the plant......need I go on?

[asbean]

I am more frustrated than excited.  I am off work all January and was looking forward to preparing the plot but the weather has been lousy.  At this rate I will have none of it done by the time I return to work..... just as the weather takes a turn for the better ::) :( :( ::)

[nilly71]

 I know what you mean KT, i've been off for just over two weeks and spent about two days down there. I wanted to spend the whole day over there today but it's pouring down >:(

I'll give it until about 10am and decide wheather to get wet or not  ::)
