A reminder

[alt_sinistra]

Tonight, I'll have my office open for anyone who wishes to spend part of the evening in conversation. No obligation to attend, of course, but there are refreshments from my favourite bakery to reward a climb up the stairs. No particular topic in mind, but I'll take suggestions for next week.

Tomorrow afternoon and evening, anyone who has concerns about a telescope is welcome to come up. Gilly Chadwick will be here to help me with a few adjustments to the school telescopes, and she has let me know she'll be glad to look at student questions as well. (Any of you who have an interest in magical item construction might also find it interesting.)

Note to you and Dad coming (Nashira should be there later today.) It's very hard, being back. Even with changing things around so it doesn't look so much the same.

Still can't think straight most of the time, and I'm so scared I'm going to slip and give something away because I'm stupid and slow and my head isn't working right.

Mostly managed last night by asking questions and listening (and well, the American Witches books give a perfectly good excuse). And Gilly's coming tomorrow, partly to walk through classes for the next week or two with me and make sure I haven't forgotten anything (and partly to check the telescopes, because I tried, but I'm sure I missed half a dozen things).

Storm told me he and Dittany had told you and Dad this week. Don't fuss - they told me as soon as they knew Hyssop'd have a brother or sister, so I'd have time. (This is Storm, remember? Thinks ahead like that.) Life goes on, yeah? Has to, or what's the point? And I feel - well, all sorts of things these days, but I don't want to be that kind of bitter and selfish. Trying very hard not to be. I'll go see them when I can manage the apparition to Yorkshire again.
