[Hexed Against Loyal Death Eaters]
Lydia was sick all day yesterday and now she's got a high fever. I'm never going to win Dad of the Year at this rate. Haha, dumb joke Called out of work today... hopefully her fever goes down. If it doesn't it's time for a trip to St. Mungo's.
I shouldn't worry so much, she's had fevers before. I guess it just comes with the territory.

I was sitting at work today when I just suddenly remembered this wild summer adventure that I had once with Cedric. I've been thinking about him a lot lately
During the last few weeks of school, we came up with this mental idea to ride our bikes somewhere really far away. One of the other guys in our year was talking about this camp that he was going to over the summer, so we... accidentally borrowed his brochure for life and looked it over and realized that we totally had a plan of deception.
We told our parents when we got home (and you have to remember that we lived next door to each other and our parents were close in school, so they were rather excited about this idea) that we really wanted to go to this camp that was two weeks long, and it was all sorts of sports and games and stuff like that. Both of us had some money saved, and then our parents helped us pay for "the rest of camp", and meanwhile me and him were using a map we had bought to plot out the fastest and easiest way to Wales from where we lived.
I can replay the scene of us saying goodbye to our parents line by line in my head. We were going to "ride our bikes over to our friends house and then his parents were going to bring us all to the camp". Fortunately for us our parents didn't know his, and likely wouldn't meet them anytime soon. So we were off! From Worcester to Wales... and for those of you that think that is a short distance... let me demonstrate how wrong you are. The distance between Worcester, England to Newport, Wales is roughly 53 miles; And in case you've never ridden a bike, riding one for 53 miles is not exactly the easiest thing to do.
We stopped a few times to get water and just to breathe, and it didn't help that we kept laughing on and off because the very idea of what we were doing was so hilarious, so we were out of breath and getting stomach cramps the entire way there. We finally got there though, nearly 4 hours later, and our two weeks that we had planned of independence turned into sleeping halfway through the day and eating whatever we could afford. And then of course, we had the dreaded venture back to Worcester.
Ah, the memories. If only he was still here

Yeah, so... Parvati? I know it took me awhile to respond to that last bit of conversation we were having; got a little caught up trying to get things situated at home and with my Mum and at work... but if you aren't too incredibly pissed angry with me which you very well should be, I'd love like it if you stopped by? Or we could go out and get ice cream or something? Obviously I'd have to bring Lyd, but that's ok, right?
Spinks, that sandwich that you brought to work, oh, I dunno, two months ago? You left it in my office... I've been trying to figure out what that smell was, and I just did. It's on your desk. Nearly lost my breakfast.
And Melz, I looked over your stuff as you wished. It's really good, I quilled in a few ideas on the sidelines.
Penny, Percy? How are you two holding up? I never got the chance to check up on you much.
And WEASLEYS, it's a little late, but I wanted to thank you for watching out for Lydia while I was stuck in the Ministry. Parvati said that you guys helped a lot; so thank you. It means a lot to me.

Demelza and I made it out alive. We were asked ten thousand questions by the authorities and then sent straight to see the Healers. I can't even think about what happened without I was so worried. Mostly for Demelza and then I couldn't help but think what would happen to Lydia if I actually started crying at one point
Parvati? I went over to your flat but no one was there. You must be out helping and the like. Where are you now? Is she with you? Thank you so much for everything you've done, and everything anyone else did to help my girl.

Does anyone know of any good daycare places? I don't just want to pick one not knowing anything about it. My Mum isn't doing so hot, she's in Mungo's I need someone to watch Lydia I've got an interview today at the Ministry and I've got to figure out what to do with Lydia. I've never not been able to take care of her I can't bring Lydia with me, and my Mum is unavailable.
Does anyone have a few free hours? It would mean the world to me.
Melz, you ready to go or are you still still getting ready?
