You never really appreciate how much your children are weird and wonderful all in the same nervously inhaled breath until you skive off work because Umbridge is a b.. get to spend all day with them.

Bill, apparently, likes Marmite on his toast. WHY? That's just nasty. Really, quite nasty. Charlie likes both syrup and lemon juice on his pancakes. It's one or the other, kiddo. Percy, on the other hand, takes great pleasure in lining up all the toy animals in size order. He's not even 2 yet... he also wants a new lion toy. Not happening, at the moment. Damn. As for the twins? Their speciality is waking me up at the STUPIDEST times. I swear, they do it just to spite me.

You've got to love them, though. Talking of children, how is everyone faring outside of my crazy-topsy-turvey house? Oh, and I hoped you liked my new haircut, Umbridge.



In other news, Molly takes great pleasure in pointing out how we can't afford this. No, I do her a diservice, she doesn't take pleasure in it. That'd be sadistic of her. But...what am I supposed to do? back to work, that's one thing. I wonder if Gringotts will let me borrow any more money. Damn, if we were Muggles, we'd at least get some money off the Government for this.

I hate even having to think about money like this. It shouldn't matter. That's not what life's about, worrying how you're going to afford things. It should be about having fun and loving people. I hate having to worry about things when I just want to have a nice time with my family. That's what's first to me, you know? My family, who I love. Problem is, we also need money. Money I don't have.

Heave-ho, it's off to work I go.
