WARDED TO MCKINNONS AND ELLADORA GUFFY.I don't think I've ever felt as discouraged as I do right this moment. And I'm so exhausted I think I might just fall asleep standing up! But I know there's something we can do to fix this. It's just a matter of finding that something. And I'm worried if we don't find it soon that people might start just taking matters into their own hands. Jo Someone just asked me if there was something I could do to make things go quicker. And I said no because of course I'm not going to do that. But it's hard having to watch those poor lambs go through this. What if we don't figure out how to save them? I've been praying and praying about it, but I'm not getting an answer. I don't think I could live with myself if any of them died. |

WARDED TO MCKINNONS.I'm sure you've all heard about that mess in Tinworth by now so there's no use in me explaining any of that. But I just wanted to let you know that Joey's been hurt really bad. I took a look at her and did what I could. She'll be right as rain soon enough, Lord willing! But if this isn't the strangest thing I've ever seen I don't know what is. One of them bit her! And there's a reason they didn't go over Inferius bites in mediwitch training. Because they just don't do that.
I just feel awful for those poor Muggles in Tinworth. They probably don't have any idea what's going on right now. They must have kept their noses out of it though because I haven't looked at a single one. Just witches and wizards and Inferi. |

Veronica Brown was one of the nicest lasses I've ever met. And not just because she loved the Lord, which definitely helped I'm sure, but she had a spirit about her that not many people find themselves blessed with. I struggle daily with something that just came naturally to her. And that's her kindness and her intelligence. You can bet she'd have gone on to do great and wonderful things with her life. And I'm sorry she won't get the chance to now. That poor sweet girl didn't deserve what she got in the slightest. Neither did anyone else who got caught up in what happened this weekend. Whoever did this should be ashamed of himself.
WARDED TO ELEANOR BONES.Happy birthday, dove. I had plans to treat you to a nice lunch this last weekend but that plan just fell apart. I'd still like to though. Would this next weekend be all right? |

My goodness, but tonight has been eventful! I do hope everyone is safe and sound. And I'll be sending out my prayers for that poor family. I hope
WARDED TO MCKINNONS.I want to thank all of you for not saying anything more to that nasty werewolf. We've got the girls to think about and I don't think he'd give a second thought to snatching them from us if he could. Of course, of course. I'm sure the dragons would snatch HIM up as quick as a blink, but better safe than sorry, right?
Are any of you taking advantage of those classes Professor McGonagall mentioned? I offered to help! Which is a bit odd considering I found her awful intimidating when I was a youngster. I never did care much for Transfiguration! |

I have to say, I'm a bit disappointed with the Ministry these days. Now, maybe I'm only seeing things from the uninformed side of it. Goodness knows you couldn't trust me to run the country! Not because I'm untrustworthy, mind you. But I'm just not equipped to answer those tough questions.
I'm getting ahead of myself here.
I just have to wonder about these Ministers we keep putting at the head of things and then just tossing aside when they've stopped being useful. It worries me. Is there anything being done for that poor Minister Flint? He was a naughty lad. But the more I think about the more it just doesn't sit right with me. He wasn't that way before, was he? Either way, being Minister sounds like an awfully stressful job. Especially right now. Maybe he just had a mental break or something of that sort. I'm going to keep him in my prayers and Minister Fancourt as well. But I thought I'd ask where I might find some answers. And sorry I started that off the way I did. I'm not disappointed with the Ministry. It's the Death Eaters that disappoint me. I just wonder what their poor mothers must be thinking. |

WARDED TO BERTIE HIGGS.I know you must be awfully busy today, dove, but do you think you could poke your head in on Neil? He's on your floor today. They had Charlemagne up from Artefact Accidents to tend to him and I, well. I know I'm probably overreacting, but it would put my heart at ease to have someone I trust take a look at him. Just when you have a moment! I'm on my way to see him myself, but I'd really appreciate it. And I would certainly owe you one! Please? |

So EASTER! I'm very fond of Easter, you know. In fact, I would go so far as to say it's my favourite holiday. Blasphemy? Hardly, doves! But the reasons are religious and I know how many deaf ears I'll find here so I'll just zip my lips and leave it at that.
I was going to amend what I said by saying that Christmas is my favourite holiday for presents because I just love buying presents for my girls, but between you and me? Ever since I've become a mother I've started to realise I love Mothering Sunday best for that. It's a bit selfish, I know! But I can't help myself. Anyway, so I suppose those two days are tied. THOUGH! I do like giving my girls chocolate on Easter. Their angelic little faces are so much sweeter when they've fallen asleep after a sugar high. So maybe all three days are tied.
You know, I'm not really sure where I was going with this any more. |
