Nice Weekend

I had a very nice weekend. I knitted, ate snacks, watched TV or played games and rested. It was very refreshing. I didn't once pick up my school books. I did look at them a couple times, feeling guilty that I wasn't hard at them but it did feel good to take a break. I almost have Ingrid's package done. I am just waiting for my handmade knitting gift to be finished. I swear I think my knitting spell has gotten slower and slower this year.

Oh dear!

There was a snake wondering around the Hufflepuff halls! It was quickly caught and done away with but someone was wondering what spell they used. I bet they used the banishing charm. I mean that is the one I would use to get rid of a snake. I can't stand the sight of them!

As for my health, I am taking it easy. This unfortunately meant I couldn't travel down to Hogsmead last weekend but some of my friends brought me some lovely treats! I do love liquorice wands and chocolate frogs! Thanks for those how have inquired about my health. I doing quite well and getting all my studies done.
