We're Waiting

Last January we ordered a tractor and it arrived in November.  Last December we ordered a greens roller and a trencher and both are elsewhere with no ETA.  Both those items are critical to our operation.  Recently we've had several routine equipment issues and are patiently waiting on parts so we can get things fixed.  We've had only one rough mower for more than a month while waiting on hydraulic wheel motors to arrive.  We can't keep up with rough mowing with one mower.  We ordered a used wide area tractor mounted pull behind mower to try and help us get by, but we are waiting on that too.  We are waiting on a pedal switch for my electric cart and an alternator for Alan's mower.  We are waiting on two hoses for handwatering as well.  Basically, anything we might need we can count on waiting for.  In some cases it looks like the wait will be over a year.  Waiting is not my strong suit and the course is not good at it either.  We need the stuff we ordered and are having some difficulties coping without it.  It'll feel like Christmas when it arrives so that's what I'm looking forward to.  Please cross your fingers that our lone rough mower survives until the part arrives for the broken mower and/or the new "used" mower arrives.  If not, we may need hundreds of volunteers to bring out their lawn mowers.
