5/Feb/18 I will just lay here, in the way, clean around me

Good morning Cape Breton.

Maximus Handsomius here from my forever home.

Tonya is always finding my hair all over the house.  I shed quite a bit.  She will dry mop, which she will get a lot of hair.  Then she takes out the Dyson vacuum and finds a lot MORE hair.  She swears, she did find all the hair with the dry mop, but the vacuum says otherwise.  It is a canister vacuum, and can be dumped two or three times while she is vacuuming after she has dry mopped the floor.

Yesterday we were supposed to have Floyd, Mylynne and Colby over for supper.  They were sick.  So they stayed home.  The Big Guy gave Colby his Lego Millennium Falcon to feel better.

For some reason, Tonya has been hording boxes in the basement.  Well one of her neices needs the boxes so that she can move.  She is going to be getting a lot of boxes.  Although the Big Guy should really go to the basement, with several blue bags and break the boxes down that isn't given away.

Tonya and the Big Guy were watching this TV series called "Nurse Jackie".  They seem to like it.

Tonya also sent the Big Guy to go get this picture frame.  He is going to hang his Game of Thrones Puzzle that he made.  Not sure where he's going to hang it.  They have a few walls upstairs, or in the spare bedroom.  Not the guest room, but the smaller room on the back of the house where they got the sewing machine.

The Big Guy got a treadmill up there.  I think that he's thinking of moving it to the basement.  It doesn't get used all that much.  He should though.  He isn't walking me, and he does need to go for his own walks.  So far, he hasn't lost any weight these last two months.  He has gained about 5 pounds.  Which he says he will loose quickly once we start walking again.  He better!

So...  what's up with this weather?  Yesterday it was snowing.  Today we are going to get about 45 mm of rain.  That's just about 2 inches of rain.  Today, the temp is supposed to go up to +9 C.  But tonight, it's supposed to drop to -9 C.  I'm not all that surprised that the Big Guy isn't upset with all this rain.  He keeps saying, he doesn't have to shovel the rain.
