After the deep freeze--waiting? replanting?

Okay, we all agree that the recent cold snap has been a brutal reminder of why Midwest gardening can be so challenging. Along with the cold, we've had quite a bit of moisture. My vegetable garden plot is quite muddy. Before the cold snap, I had only planted 2 short rows of peas and a row of radishes and bachelor's buttons. We got a hard rain that night and then the cold set in, so I'm not anticipating it will come up. Normally, by now, I'd have all my spring crops in. The weather is supposed to remain cold and wet for a few more days. By the time it straightens out, it may be too late for some spring crops like peas in this area. So if you haven't gotten your spring crops in, or if you lost them in the cold snap, what are your plans? Are you planting/replanting, or are you going to jump ahead with warmer season plants?
