The Golden Neep IC

We have a new round of begging for a dog at our house. The boys saw signs advertising for an adoption drive for pets without homes in Montrose. I wasn't sure if I should be glad that their reading skills are coming along quite nicely or resigned to the pleading for a pet.

How do you do it?

I know I have spoken with some of you in the past about the difficulties of having social events and activities for children not yet old enough to attend Hogwarts. Normally, I would be among the first to organise such events or opportunities, but my priorities time has been more limited of late.

I was wondering if there was still any interest in this.

It's good to be home. Though everyone was perfectly hospitable at St. Mungo's and I knew I had to be there for a perfectly valid reason, their beds are admittedly not built for individuals of my size and frame. I missed my bed and my dogs.

To all of those that visited me, thank you. It was very much appreciated. As were your cards and other fond notes.

I'll be back to my old self soon enough, until then I'm going to take time to relax and maybe just walk the dogs for a bit.
