Monday

So, it is Monday. I guess for a Monday the day is moving pretty quickly. It is surprisingly going okay even though I have cut out everything but water for health reasons. Hopefully, I can start drinking coffee again soon. I was an absolute slug this weekend without it.

HLBOE swap (I am still not sure if that is right), I finished the hat part that is to be included into my package. I have not started on the embellishment yet. I am supposed to be working on some mitts for Potions. Not going too hot. I really just need to sit down and do it. I think I am going to start over, the yarn I am using is just not in a manageable size. I am supposed to be working REF Desk this semester so that will help with time management on my knitting. I actually need to start studying for the GRE.

One day I soon I will start reviewing my math. Yuck!!

Ghost Quiz #1

OK A little Ghostly quiz!! Could be worth some points ;)

How many ghosts were there in the Harry Potter series and name them.

Good Luck

Bloody Baron, the Grey Lady, Sir Nicholas, the Fat Friar, Moaning Myrtle, Professor Binns, and the ghost guest at Sir Nicholas's death day party.

Not really a ghost, but Peeves the Poltergeist.

HLBOE Swap

I have started on my swap partners hat!  I am really excited to see how it comes out.  I really aught to be working on my Potions gloves, but I got a new book and wanted to make a hat out of it.  It calls for 3 needle sizes,  good thing I got a Denise needle set for Christmas from my hubby.   I think I might have topped out my budget on yarn for the hat, oh well.

Magical Creatures Owl Essay

Perry the Baby Owl

My owl is a baby Eastern Screech Owl that is native to the Missouri area of the United States. He is naturally picking up the habits of an owl, but he started developing interest in delivering newspapers to the local muggles. This scared muggles, of course, so he was re-located to a more nonhuman habitat. This is where he found my family and we started to train he properly to be a magical companion. Soon he will be going to Hogwarts with me and delivering all of my goodies!

3 Assignments

I am trying to keep up with as many Hogwarts assignments that is witchly possible! I have one due on Saturday for Magical Creatures. I need to knit up an owl tonight. Hopefully it will not take too long. I feel like I am cheating though, I am using someone elses pattern and not making my own. I did promise R an owl so this actually works out nicely.

I should start working on my next assignment due which is finger-less gloves for Potions. It is due on January 24th, but I am over 50% finished with my third assignment which is slippers for Ruins. I have promised these to R also. Since she knows that these are in the making a should actually risk not getting my owl done and finish the slippers. She is a very literal little elf. You can't promise something and hope that she forgets it.

I have been out of sorts since Christmas.  I am in a new swap called, well, I honestly can't remember.  I know it is about Hogwarts.  I will have to elaborate later!  Sick kid and loopy husband....sore tooth.
