Good morning Cape Breton.Maximus Handsomius here from my forever home.
Yesterday the Big Guy made me some new biscuits. He got a new cookie cutter shaped like a small dog bone. I do say though, I did like the other cookie cutter better as it was a medium shaped bone. But now you could say, I get more cookies. He is keeping them in the fridge.
But do you know what he did?
As he was putting glaze on the biscuits. He ate one of them. He looked a me and said that he knows why I like them so much.
They are easy to make. Just 2 cups of whole wheat flour, 2 jars of baby food. Mix together, cut them to shape, bake at 350 for 35 minutes.
Then he makes a glaze for them too. It's a tablespoon of coconut oil and peanut butter. Mix them together. Dip the biscuits, when they are cool. They can be stored on the counter, but recommended to put in the fridge. I'm big enough to jump up on the counter to get stuff. That only tends to annoy the Big Guy, BIG time. I only do that when Tonya and the Big Guy are NOT looking.
Guess what today is...
It's GARBAGE DAY!
I am hoping that I will be going for a walk this morning so that I can sniff all the lovely garbage bags that are put outside.
Next week, people will be putting their stuff out for Big Garbage day. This allows people to put stuff to the curb that normally is not considered stuff to put out for "normal" garbage day. So next weekend, the Big Guy has to pretty much empty out his garage and only put stuff back in that he intends to keep. Otherwise, to the curb it goes. He is going to be putting a lot of stuff to the curb.
The Big Guy put his OLD BBQ to the curb about 2 weeks ago. Someone took it yesterday. The Big Guy was pretty happy that it's gone. Who ever took it, was probably taking it for the metal. It was pretty much rotted out from the inside. It wasn't safe to use any longer. But it's gone, and that's all he was worried about.

Good morning Cape Breton.Maximus Handsomius here from my forever home.
Yesterday we went for a longer walk than what I have been going on lately. BUT that is because the snow is finally melting. With the snow that fell two weeks ago, a lot of the sidewalks were not plowed. I had to wait for the snow to be melted so that we could walk safely again. Otherwise, I would have been walking on the road and Tonya doesn't like that at all.
Tonya wanted to go to the gym each morning. But the Big Guy said no. He said the gym costs money. Money that he's not aware of that they have. Besides, he has offered to turn the basement of the house into a gym for her and anyone else that would like to go to his basement gym.
He could set up a TV, put in a loud stereo, put some placemats and other stuff. They could have a really nice gym in the basement. Tonya says it's messy in the basement. The Big Guy agreed, but he also knows, he could fix it up nicely. Just give him the chance to do that.
Tonya has told the Big Guy, next weekend, when he is off, to start cleaning out his garage to figure out what goes out for big garbage day and other stuff that needs to go back to people that have been storing stuff in his garage for all this time. He is only too glad to give them their stuff back again. This will allow him room to put stuff in his garage that needs to be in there. I think he is looking forward to giving the stuff back a lot more than what he is letting on.
Tonya seen a rat in my yard yesterday. She told the Big Guy, he's gotta put out traps to get them. He is only too happy to do that. The rats have gotta a way of getting into their green bin. As much as they add stuff to the green bin, they also noticed that the green bin is never filling up. The rats have been feasting. Well that is going to be coming to an end.
There is this 3 legged dog that was just visiting the green bin. I've met him before and he isn't very nice. He came after me and tried to bite me. I don't think his owners know that he got off his leash and he didn't see a collar on his neck.
Well, it's time for the Blast From the Past.

Bye bye fur now.
Good morning Cape Breton.Maximus Handsomius here from my forever home.
So yesterday we got a lot of rain. More than what I was expecting. Although they were also calling for freezing rain too. But I didn't see that.
The Big Guy took Tonya to her appointment in Glace Bay yesterday. On the trip back, he was supposed to turn somewhere, but he missed the turn and kept going in the wrong direction. They eventually made it back home (Obviously).
Tonya was really hungry when she got home. She was also tired and laid down for about 4 hours. The Big Guy didn't mind so much. He played his XBox and made some supper. When she got up, she said that she was hungry like an alligator. The Big Guy had made a chicken, gravy and veggies. She said that it was REALLY good.
So because some of the days have been shifted, the Big Guy gotta work 8 days in a row. But he isn't complaining. He really needed yesterday off. So this was his choice. But it's going to be strange for him to work the weekends again. He hasn't worked the weekend for close to 5 years now.
With all the rain that we got, the snow banks are just about gone. Then again, if it didn't snow at the first week of April, there was no snow banks then either.
The Big Guy has been looking at the weather and it would seem that it is going to be warmer and warmer each week. Soon enough, they will need to take their Winter Tires off their car. The Big Guy will also have to take the snow blower off the lawn tractor. He says that he wants to do a video of him taking the snow blower off the machine.
It's time for the Blast From the Past:

I know not to expect the Big Guy to sleep in. He just doesn't do that. He gets up early and wanders around the house for a bit before he settles down at the computer to draft an email to my non-furry Memere. Her name is Gloria. She is super nice. But she is kind of scared of me.
That's because I still act like I'm a puppy.
Today, the Big Guy is up extra early to be able to take Tonya to the hospital for this procedure where they look at her insides. They are nice enough to put her to sleep while they do that.
Now I know what it means when they say that they are putting an older dog to sleep. But this is different. When they did this to the Big Guy, twice when they did this to him, he was awake for the procedure. But that's when he was in the Navy and they weren't so nice. After he got out of the Navy, and they wanted to peek inside his back side, they put him to sleep for the procedure.
I hope they never have to look inside my back side.
One of the things you gotta do, is prepare for this. This means doing two things.
1. You stop eating for a day. Oh god. I would be so hungry.
But the second is a bit worst.
2. You have to poop a lot. They give you medicine for that to make you "go" a lot more than normal. It's an industrial sugar. Humans can't digest this and it makes you "go". A LOT and OFTEN.
Boy oh boy, I never heard the toilet flush so many times in the run of a day.
You get a cramp and you gotta go NOW!
Tonya says that she is going to have a biggie breakfast when they are all done.
BUT here is the worst part about all of this. I can't go with her to watch over her. They are going to leave me home while they leave the house. I will be so worried about her.
But that's OK. When she gets home, I will jump up all over her.
