Journal: Home Again, Home Again

[Warded to Slytherins, Bryony, Rich, Lucy, Alicia, Rolf, and Roger.]

Even my Slytherin ambition says it's time to come home for a few days and take a rest. Is anyone who's doing a ritual for the Solstice have room for one more?

[Spellotaped inside.]
At least this is what I could come back to at the end of the work-day!

I've decided I need one of these for my next birthday. It was surprisingly (for a Fire sign) conducive to getting Big Thoughts thought. No fear of getting dropped into the drink!

[End ward.]

[Warded to Theo.]
You would like it here. It's so peaceful. Did the menagerie give you any trouble while I was away?

[End ward.]

[Warded to Dora.]

I think I've just gotten a sideways proposal of marriage from one of my vendors. I need your book on the language of flowers!

[End ward.]

[Memo to Rich.]

Would you be willing to be another pair of eyes on some last minute paperwork? I don't want anyone pulling anything funny in the eleventh hour.

	The magical half of Cayo Espanto, off the northeastern coast of Belize. It came highly recommended. I was doing business in Belize City, but didn't want to stay there. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You're always welcome on my couch, Cousin, you know that (and anytime you need a beach getaway, Mother would be happy to have you on the island, ~~goodness knows it would give her someone else to fuss over besides me. You'd think Dagny would have taken care of that...)~~ Welcome home, when are we catching up? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	I think I'm going to take you up on that this autumn; it wouldn't be too difficult to take a Portkey from Belize to the island. Any chance I can steal you away for dinner some night this week? We can go out, or Mebby can cook. Theo was so undemanding while I was gone that I think she'll keel over if I don't have someone over soon. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Oh, so beautiful, darling! I love it. I wish I could have come visit! I'll send the book in just a few minutes. He's grumpy today, so have a treat ready. I don't know what has his feathers ruffled. Is it a nice vendor? Haha. I'd love to do a ritual, even if it's simple. You want to go gathering? (Reply to this) (Thread)

Yes, you should have, but business is business, and I'm glad you had those orders come in. ~~I worry about how much work you~~

I gave him a fresh mouse one of the cats found this morning, which seems to have put him in a better mood. But he's still coming back to you posthaste -- I don't like how he and Aeolus were eyeing each other. I'll bring the book when we meet up for tea this week. You're not allowed to say 'no,' so tell me what day works best. And if you want to go off the Alley or not.

He's...it's hard to explain.

I have a harvesting to do, so if you could bring your tools and the proper baskets, I could be ready by eight. And Mebby'll put up something small for us for afterward.

It is a good thing, but the timing had a lot to be desired.

I have no idea why he and Aeolus glare so at each other. Normal Caduceus is relatively good natured. Let's head out of the alley this time. Wednesday might be best?

You'll have to explain at some point, my dear!

I can do that. I'll be there by then. It'll be nice to gather, even if I don't have much personal use for anything.

	Oh, jealous! So beautiful. Glad to have you back, though. Do come by the shop and catch up some time soon. I have some new things you might like for your furbabies as well. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	First Ward reinventingmils 2015-06-22 05:19 pm UTC (link)
	I was going to ask why you were jealous, but then I remembered you went somewhere else with your ~~para~~ lady. But I do recommend Cayo Espanto; the magical half is positively decadent. The middle cat is celebrating my return with a bit of a sniffle. Do you have any of that fish oil in stock we used last time? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: First Ward outofthewild 2015-06-23 06:46 am UTC (link)
	It's on the list now. Definitely want to take her there. Oh dear. I can definitely send you some of that. Owl will be on its way shortly. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Color me jealous. Puts my digs on the river all to shame. Glad to look over the paperwork for you. When do you want to get together? (Reply to this) (Thread)

I have a good mind to take a property near there, but that's a project for another time. And after I see if the shop survives. But in the meantime, if you're longing for a short holiday, I'll give you Esther's information, and she can find you a vacancy?

I'll be in the office all day Tuesday and Wednesday, if that's convenient for you. Or if you don't mind discussing business over tea, I'm done with the newest recruit by then on Thursday. I trust Ángel and Guillermo implicitly, but Hilario still hasn't warmed to me at all, and I'm not sure anymore it's just that I'm British and a woman.

I've still got my place in Greece that I don't get half enough time to visit. Still, maybe a few days the end of summer...

Tuesday afternoon is good for me. I'm off east Wednesday morning. The Bulgarian is being difficult again so I'm going to look into other markets there for a few days. Then back to Paris to finalize the contracts on the winter fabrics, if you want me to pick up anything for you while I'm there.

You should schedule some sort of celebration when your grand opening is over.
