As my Blog/Chat friends wring the very last hours out of this long holiday weekend I'll get put a log on the fireplace and get my holiday recap in print. I am actually not the first in my blog ring to post; GreenTuna managed entries during her visit in Maryland; Chefgracegeorge offered up holiday recipes and TVJunkie made us all envious with her entries about Shiba the mischevious cat and her new Powerbook. Good stuff.
I was alone this Christmas, as I often am these past few years, but I'm pretty used to it and generally enjoy the time; phone calls with family and a few friends provided a slight veneer of family holiday tradition.
Honey continues to be a scardy-cat after last Tuesdays mishap, but she finally came out very briefly on Saturday (our 2-week anniversary) for some petting before being spooked by absolutely nothing. She's come out twice since then, just as briefly with the same MO.
On the positive side, Honey has become enamoured with the Big Friendly Petting Hand and welcomes it's visits under the bed. She also has been staying out in her living room cat bed way late into the morning until after I get up and see her there, then she'll slither back under the bed for the day. I consider that these delays are really tests to see my reaction. Also last night she hopped up on my bed and across my feet as she headed out to the living room...another test, I suppose. On Saturday she also curled up on my bed while I was out watching TV until I saw her there.
