OK to delay planting a bit? asks wimp

I had a bulb order from B & B arrive this last Monday. I got most of it planted Tuesday. But I've been a wimp about the rest: too cold and cloudy (of course it only gets worse, I know...) If its overcast I just FEEL colder.

Will it hurt them if I wait a few more days? Monday is supposed to have some sun: but that would mean I have had them a full week. Otherwise I will bite the bullet and do them Saturday. Really.

Everything has been unpacked since I got them, with good air circulation: in the garage, where they are kept cold but not frozen. Remaining bulbs are species tulips, Hawera daffodils, Dutch Iris, species crocus, Brodaia, and about 300 (gulp!) anemones. I had soaked the anemones Monday but drained off most of the water Wednesday when I realized I was not going to plant them right away. I hope I have not confused them. Those are in the house so I can watch them.
