20/Dec/19 walk around me you will

Good morning world.

Maximus Handsomius here from my forever home, in Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia, Canada.

Before the Big Guy went to bed yesterday, he put the garbage out.  He said that it was really cold outside.  Well, yea, your not wearing a jacket.  Humans don't do very well, without jackets, hats and gloves, when it's cold outside.

Tonya and the Big Guy went to see Aurora yesterday.  The Big Guy even got to hold her for a few minutes.  But then Aurora became fussy and wanted to be with Mylynne again.

The Big Guy was saying how he isn't loosing any weight.  Well he is sort of off his diet.  They are having chips and other stuff.  Although he isn't drinking as much wine as he used to.  Still, calories in and calories out, they can't be equal.  You have to eat less in order to loose weight.

The Big Guy says, in the New Year, he will get back on track once again.

But for today...  WE FEAST!

Not so much myself.  Just them, they feast.

I get kibble and water.  

Every so often, Tonya will try to slip me some stuff she is eating.

But the other day, she caught me licking my paws.  That is a sure sign that I've been eating something that isn't good for me.  Who would have known, eat bad stuff for doggies, and you get itchy paws.

19/Dec/19 if you leave me alone, then I'm a good dog

Good morning world.

Maximus Handsomius here from my forever home, in Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia, Canada.

Tonya will be getting up in a few hours from now.  I am so excited to see her.  I will jump and bark to show her just how excited I am.

I think she should have a coffee maker in the bathroom.  Then she could have her coffee BEFORE she comes downstairs.

I'm not sure of the reference, but the Big Guy often calls her "Grumpy Bear" in the morning.

He doesn't even say "good morning" until she has had her first sip of her coffee.

So...  talking of the Big Guy, he's up to his old tricks again.

He is making a chicken stew.  Well, he still has to go to Superstore and get a chicken.  But he's got the potatoes and carrots on the boil.  The celery that is left, well, he wouldn't refer to it as celery as there is only a few stalks left.  

Then, he is also thinking of getting some parchment paper so that he can make some tea biscuits.  I certainly hope he makes them WITHOUT raisins.  That way, I get to bum some of the biscuits off of Tonya.

If he makes the tea biscuits WITH raisins, then I can't have any.  Raisins are not good for dogs at all.  They are like poison to us.

So, if you live close by and would like to drop in for a visit and have some "comfort food", please feel free to do so.

18/Dec/19 looking for a friend to play with

Good morning world.

Maximus Handsomius here from my forever home, in Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia, Canada.

Yesterday Tonya told the Big Guy to take me to the Dog Park.  So, off we went.

We got there and there was no one else there.

We stayed for about 10 minutes.  Then I got lonely and stayed with the Big Guy.  He hugged me as he was trying to stay warm.  

So we left.

Then we went to the Pet Store.  I wanted to go in with him, but he was only going in for my kibble.  Tonya had told him to get me a present.  Well, guess who didn't get a present.  Then again, when Tonya says that I've left them a present, it's cause I did a poo.  So, why would she send me and the Big Guy to the pet store for poo?

Must be some new human ritual of some sort.

We then went over to Canadian Tire and the Big Guy got this Windshield washer fluid.  It's for the Winter and doesn't freeze up like the other stuff does.  I watched him as he poured the entire contents into the reservoir.  I wanted to help, but apparently my help was regulated to staying inside the car.

When we got home, Tonya had cleaned up all the floors.  She was tired from cleaning and went to lay down.

Of course that meant XBox time for the Big Guy.  So I went for a nap.

When Tonya got up, I was all excited.  She asked if I had bugged the Big Guy the entire time he was on his XBox.  No, I was napping.  It isn't play time until Tonya comes down stairs.

17/Dec/19 I saw Mommy kissing Santa Claus

Good morning world.

Maximus Handsomius here from my forever home, in Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia, Canada.

My non-furry Memere has been emailing the Big Guy.  She tells him about all the cookies she has been baking.  I bet they are some good.  The Peanut Butter ones especially.  I bet I could have some of them.  Peanut Butter is something that I'm allowed to have as a special treat.

Yesterday the Big Guy made that goulash.  Although he calls it Mum's Macaroni.  He loves that stuff and can't hardly get enough of it.  I would like to have some of it too, but there is onions in it.  Not good for me at all.

The Big Guy was watching the news yesterday.  It is going to snow in North Western Newfoundland.  They are forecasting over 50 cm of snow for them.  That is just nasty.

Each year, my non-furry Memere will buy the Big Guy his XBox with Gold membership.  He got his last two games for this year, this morning.  One was Jurasic Park and the other was Castlevania.

The Big Guy really likes playing his video games.

The Big Guy says that it keeps his mind sharp.  Tonya says it's a waste of time.

Well, a week from today, and there is going to be a lot of people over this house.  Tonya says that they are coming over on XMas Eve and will be having some drinks and some "picky food".  I wonder if that means that I will be getting some?  I will have to go around to each person and see if anything drops on the floor.

Although I can give the Big Guy a miss.  He doesn't share his human food with me.
