Can you believe it? Only nine more days are left for the term!!! Let the panic begin! I guess I have been spending too much time fliting around the campus and Hogsmeade (and working on the baby shower gifts). I can't believe where the time has gone this month. Still so much work to do. I especially need to get my owl finished. I will be so happy once it is done.
I have yet to master the automatic knitting spell. My attempts have resulted in some disasters and comedy. Unfortunately the tangled mess of yarn was quite a disaster and someone's owl got caught in the mess. Poor little bird. However it was quite funny watching the needles chase down the stray and unsuspecting student. **No one was harmed in my knitting attempts ;)
Well, I had better get cracking in order to get all of my assignments completed on time.

Week 2 of July
This month seems to be going by in a flash. Perhaps I have just been occupying my time elsewhere (instead of on the assignments that I should be working on).
My O.W.L. is coming along nicely. It will absolutely be done on time, no ifs ands or buts about it. I have been trying to come up with a spell that will tie in 10 or so ends on each of my 88 squares. Unfortunately, I have been unsuccessful in my pursuits. The border color just needs to be added to 11 squares and then the daunting task of weaving in the ends... and then assembling all of the squares into an afghan! Where's a house elf when you need one? I can't believe how much yarn the border has taken, 5 skeins!!! But then again, the squares did take 16 skeins. Oh so much yarn.
In excess of doing my O.W.L. I have to make baby items because my twin cousins' wives are both pregnant at the same time and are having their shower at the beginning of the coming month! Unfortunately my mum is not too handy with the hook or needles, so the crafting is left to me.
I guess I better get working on my coursework as well as getting this afghan put together as soon as possible so that I can get cracking on the baby items.

And Another Month Bites the Dust
That's right. You heard it come crashing down. June is gone and it is now... JULY!!! ::shrieking:: The professors are really sticking it to us this month. Making things in multiples, something transparent, a constellation, something Snape like (I hope that doesn't send me to detention ::shudders::), a garment to fit in amongst the muggles, and even more to do. Yeah, I think I am going to be busy.
Remember to get your wristies and quidditch wear done and sent out :)
Oooh and coming up is my birthday, I think I am going to take a special or super sneaky trip to Hogsmeade. Yay :)
