It has been 79 days since my capture.
The wardens have now given me full access to the house, but I don't use it when they are awake. My cell is my safe place.
In spite me not leaving the room during the day, the wardens are pleased with my progress. I continue to love pets (who knew people touching you could be nice), I will come down to eat when they are in the room, and sometimes, I just come down and hang out at a distance. The wardens have noticed I also don't eat all my food right away. I seem to understand more food will be coming.

The wardens have been experimenting with removing my anxiety meds. They are doing this because they will be away for a few days in January and a substitute guard will be caring for us. This guard will struggle to give me the medication the way it is and the people wanted to see if I needed it and they needed to get it in liquid form, or if I was trusting enough to not have it. Turns out, I am trusting enough to not have it at this time. This may be a good change.
In other news, Styx comes to visit me. He seems to want to be my friend but can't stop himself from growling at me. I don't react. I know he is not a threat. We will see how this relationship unfolds.

For now, I am sort of glad to not be outside. It has been very, very cold here (-24C/-11F) and I must admit, it is nice to be inside.
