I received the name of my Hogwarts sock swap partner today. I am so excited, she is a Gryffindor. I already had in mind the bag I wanted to make and I thought it would look really good with the Gryffindor colors. So far the other Ravenclaws that I have met in the swap are very nice. Everyone is very excited about this swap, I am so glad that Molly let me in on it. I will have to consult with here where she gets her yarn from though.
I went to visit the school last week. It is still mostly the same as I remember it although the faces have changed. It doesn’t seem like Hogwarts without Proff. Dumbledor though. The place just doesn’t have the same “sparkle” that it used to. Although I am sure whoever is chosen as the new headmaster will give it their own brand of sparkle. I also managed to make it down to the potions dungeon for a peak around. Potions was by far my favorite subject (after all I grew up to be a potions mistress!). I am very saddened about the fate that has befallen Proff. Snape. I know he wasn’t always the nicest of people, and I know he often played favorites, which is unfair, but in my years at Hogwarts he was good to me. He saw my potions potential and helped me delve more deeply into the art of potion making. He was very, very gifted potions master, sadly he obviously got involved with the wrong crowd.
Anyway, we have a very busy weekend ahead of us, and I was hoping for a quiet weekend at home and continue cleaning and organizing our new home. Oh well, at least I can start planning the contents of my swap package properly now. Emma
