Hot dogs, nerves, and the weridness of books

I just cant get over it! Seriously how can a book publishing house miss the fact that the last 60 pages in a book is wrong!
Seriously, it goes from page 200 to 233. Then it goes from 233 to the end of the book WHERE the book jumps BACK to page 233 and REFINISHES the book! So I have the last page twice, the glossary twice, AND the first section of book two TWICE.... but no idea what happens between page 200 and 233.... *sigh*

The past week has been busy. Thankfully I had work everyday. Friday one of the kids decided to pretend she owned a beauty salon and gave me mud eyeshadow and lipstick. She then decided to paint my finger nails with tree pitch. She is rather cute, but I decided the pitch was a bit to much and let her borrow my clear nail polish.

Been sleeping poorly this week. Had the weirdest dreams. I would share them, but then they could be contageious.

I would LOVE to have hot dogs right now. Something about the warm weather, and watching the neighbor clean his grill today got me in the mood. Unfortunatly I have nothing, unless you consider the condements, for hot dogs. Would allso love a cup of tea. However I have no honey, sugar, or steevia! *sigh* some days you just don't have any luck.

My nerves have been odd today. My finger nails are gone...... GO FIGURE. Been feeling a bit overwhelmed this week. Probably due to the weird dreams and lack of sleep :) but my imagination is not dead that's for sure!

If you hear of a woman getting kidnapped by Sasquatches in my area? It was probably me out hunting for that elusive picture for national geographic.

Gardening... cats.. and badgers

Its been so cold lately, that I have to wonder what happened to our spring! We have even had frost a few nights.

Last week I saw what I thought was a new stray cat eating at our bread we had left out for the birds. Turns out it was a badger! I got to watch him for about an hour. He's been back a few times, although always after I have gone to bed. I am going to have to find a way to video him some time.

A friend has given us a section of land to loan for a garden spot! I am so excited. I know its going to be hard work, and its been ages since I have actually done any real gardening, but I am looking forward to the challenge. Today we bought the seed potatoes, and other seed we are going to put in. We have to break the ground, and hope to plant next week as it will be warming up.

My cats have decided that I don't need sleep lately. When my husband comes to bed, they decide I need to get up. I don't, and if I lay quietly enough they will eventually go and sleep at my feet. Tigger, my very gorgeous large male, is sitting on my lap watching me type.

Worked every day this week, although its only half days. Its been rather fun as I have had lots of energy to play with the kids. Looks like I could be working at this place for the next few weeks. I would love that.

The book I ordered a month ago came today. Its a fun little birthday present that cost me 11 buck including shipping. It's not intellectual like all the others I have been reading lately, and I got it for some down time. Have been reading a series lately, for teens, to help boost my vocab. Its been amusing, and relaxing.
