I fear something rather sad has happened to me today. I was inspecting my collection of Dionaea Muscipula and found that my favorite was looking rather sickly, however it was in fact dead. I attempted to reanimate it but it was too far gone to be revived. To my great displeasure I had to bring it outside and give it a proper burial, as it was alive just as much as any other on this earth and deserved respect. It shall become nourishment for the other plants to thrive on I suppose so that is something positive coming out of the negative.
Master Aro clearly has caught wind of my idea of placing a water detail in amongst the garden. I have received in my room plans for many different ideas and a contact to get me all of the things I'll need to put one in to place. I suppose I have found what I'll be doing with myself for the next week. It's always nice to know what will be keeping you busy for a duration of time. There are many different possibilities these days though I prefer to keep it elegant like the castle, something that reflects the nobility of our Masters. I will look in to stone and marble later today. Stone would go well with the Castle's outward appearance, at least what little of it is above ground, but marble would reflect the elegance of the innards of the castle. Both can be easily decimated by a careless Vampire however. I hope that such a thing doesn't ever happen.
I've yet to pick a new hobby yet Renata, I apologize. Though the funniest suggestion I've yet to receive is 'Basket Weaving'. Of course, not something I'd actually find an interest in doing, but the suggestion was amusing. Gianna is quite amusing when she wants to be.

It saddens me that I've created such a beautiful masterpiece outside of our castle, yet no animals will ever come to enjoy it. I suppose that'll always be the curse of being an immortal, though it's something I've gotten used to over the years. I had dogs growing up, hunting dogs mostly. My father would use them when he went with clients out on weekends. I was used to being around animals, but I'm closing in on five hundred years as an immortal, and so it's been enough time to for me to become used to the lack of animal companionship in my life.
However I took this afternoon to regrow some of the flower beds, it's becoming that time of year when it's so warm that the flowers die. I've let the outer layers of the area become yellow and dry with the heat. I haven't wanted to keep them too alive for it draws in too many curious green thumbs among the mortals that live in Volterra. I keep the innards lush and green like every year, making it lovely for us. I might consider putting in a water detail at some point. It would add to the ambiance of outside. For now though I'm content to keep it as it is. Perhaps I'll speak with Master Caius about it at some point, when he's at his leisure.
There is rest among the castle it seems, which is always nice, but at the same time, unnerving. I spent the evening before practicing my Latin which has become rusty in the past few decades. I suppose not everything is like a bicycle, you do tend to forget things if you don't put them in to practice, though Latin tends to be something of a dying language. Perhaps I should take up another, but I grow weary of reading the texts. Perhaps it's time to master something different, I've considered learning how to cook, there's always Gianna to try new foods out on, she's eager to please and I'm sure she'd try just about anything I gave to her. Such a well meaning mortal.
