In which we're making progress
Sep. 21st, 2010 07:52 amAftershocks are seriously spacing out. We didn't have one all Sunday, and I put almost all my ornaments back up, albeit with large quantities of Blu-Tack to encourage them to stay up.
Just after the midnight that begins Monday we had a 4.6 (which, incidentally, 4.6 was totally my guess; I'm getting good at this though alas I suspect my skills would not transfer to judging the magnitude of earthquakes significantly more than 30km away) and a 4.1 during the day (which I didn't notice since I was moving around at work) and a couple of random 3s (which don't really count).
Boots has been hanging around more and is back to a regular two meals a day. Last night she snuggled on my lap for a while. When I went to bed, instead of disappearing next door to her hidey-hole, she came and snuggled in bed with me. She practically never snuggles in bed with me, and when she does, after a few minutes it's too hot or confining and she crawls out again. Which indeed she did last night, and went to settle in the wardrobe instead.
Then in the middle of the night I woke up and found her next to me on top of my bed, at arm-level. (Normally she sleeps by my shin, or maybe my thigh if she's cold.) I had to get up, which disturbed her and I think she went out at that point, but she was back at the appropriate time for breakfast this morning.
