and have we mentioned the paint?

Well, we have been busy this past week.

Mum made all of us clean out absolutely everything this week, probably to keep us out of mischief. We had to clean out our room, degnome the garden, and paint. And paint. and paint. Have we mentioned the paint? Mum even charmed the paint so we couldn't do anything to it. Took all the fun right out of it. We must have painted every single room.

She gave us the night off from our slave labour, to pack and finish revising, which is not much better, so we decided to take a look-see around the journals in case anything interesting was going on.

There wasn't, so we had to post and bring cheer to all of your dreary lives by complaining about ours.

We think someone hexed us, because we actually want to go back to school. Mum, are you behind this?

Yeah, because you're the one that screams like a girl whenever a bee gets near you.

Not all girls scream when bees get near them! I don't, anyway!

I like bees. They're interesting.

You'll get sorted into Gryffindor for sure, Ginny.

I Do. Not. Like. Bees. I feel about them the way Ron feels about spiders.

Although I do admit I like eating their honey. And if Mum manages to make a go of it with those hives, she might have quite a tidy little business with them.

[alt_ginny]

Well, maybe you'd feel different about them after you've worked with them awhile. When Mum puts the charm over the hive, they're quite safe and they sort of tickle when they walk about on your arms.

The hat with the net does look daft, though.

Walk about on my arms? I hope not!

No, indeed, Ginny, I'll leave all the bees to you.
