... It is strange to think it has been... Nearly a year...
... And yet... I still don't mourn them...
... It was just last summer... I still am pleased with the strength of will I showed that day...
No, I do not mourn them, nor regret what I had done...
... But that doesn't prevent me from finding it strange that the halls didn't echo with the sounds of their day to day dealings... No, the halls are quiet now... Much like Hogwarts was over the holidays...
The house elves have always been too quiet, and keep to themselves, so I never hear them... It's eerie, actually.
I'm glad I don't have to stay longer than the few times I've visited to check up... It's a shame, the manor is lovely, but also... Distressingly quiet.
... Too bad I know nothing of how Mother used to plan celebrations... Perhaps...
No... Best not to do anything like that until after I've spent enough time there to make sure all their belongings are boxed up and packed away in the attic where they belong...

... I think a trip into London to buy some things might be nice... Perhaps things like Minako has at her house, such interesting Muggle inventions...
... Though I suppose I'd have to get my money exchanged for more Muggle currency before I did...
Mother would have loathed them... But that's just all the more reason I should decorate the manor with them...
