4/Jan/16 she didn't expect me to jump up

Good morning Cape Breton.

Maximus Handsomius here from my forever home.

I will not be ignored.  When I want Tonya's attention, I get it.  In the picture above, she was playing on her computer.  So I jumped up behind her and wrapped my front paws around her neck.  My dew claws were digging in, this is why she was saying it hurts.

Last week, the Big Guy got me a new bone to chew on.  This one is really hard.  But once I got the marrow out of the center, he jammed a treat inside and then plugged up the end with peanut butter.  Well I still can't get to the treat.  I keep chewing on it when ever I get my mind to it.

I get quiet every so often and will find something else to chew on.  Normally it isn't something that I should be chewing on.

I hear that the Christmas decorations will be coming down soon.  Probably by this weekend, they will all be put away.

The Big Guy told me that he isn't going to be doing as many cooking blogs.  He was doing one for one with my own blog.  But he is finding he is running out of material.  So now he is going to do a video for each cooking blog he does.  So not as much content, but better content.  In the end, people will enjoy it better.

At least that is his plan.  Then he also plans to have this "Angry Scotsman" doing appearances in his video.  We will see how that goes.

Bye bye for now.

3/Jan/17 where is my motorbike?

Good morning Cape Breton.

Maximus Handsomius here from my forever home.

I am wearing my doggles a little bit more each time that Tonya tries them on me.  Do I look sexy with them on?

Yesterday the Big Guy made this Chicken Gumbo.  The most I got to do was lick Tonya's bowl.  Man oh man, that was some good stuff.  No wonder people make that.  But it does take a long time to make it though.  Preparation time and then cooking it in stages.  But the big guy doesn't seem to mind it too much.  He was quiet while he was cooking.

I was sniffing the air when he took out the sausages.  Oh they smelled good!  If you were to look at the video of him cooking, I show up several times in the video.  But in this picture, I am standing on my four paws and I can lift my mussel just above the counter.  Can you imagine how much trouble I would get into if I were to jump up and just look around the counter top?

Bye bye for now.

2/Jan/17 PLEASE scratch me behind the ears

Good morning Cape Breton.

Maximus Handsomius here from my forever home.

I like to be scratched behind the ears.  Or a back rub.  A belly rub is good too.  Just having my humans touch me feels great.

Today, the Big Guy is thinking of making a Chicken Gumbo.  He has made that in the past and it was really good.  But this means that he needs the car to go shopping today.  But he doesn't seem to mind too much.  They need a few other items in the house anyways.

Yesterday Tonya and the Big Guy went to "The Boy's" house for fish chowder.  It was really good, but Tonya did burn the Big Guy's hand.  She was bringing him a bowl of chowder that was REALLY full and it dripped on his hands.  It burned him under his wedding ring.  She took it away and got him a plate for under the bowl.  Good thing the chowder wasn't scalding hot.

The Big Guy made some Raisin Tea Biscuits.  Terry said that they were all for him.  But people were sneaking some.

I also heard him saying that it may be time to take some stuff out of the windows.  So those decorations will be coming down.  Then there will be a few other items, like the tree and what not.  They all get put away for another year.

It's supposed to rain tomorrow.  Which is good.  Last year, people that were on the mainland, some of their wells ran dry.  The Big Guy is happy with rain, as he doesn't have to shovel rain.

Oh well, nothing much else going on right now.

Bye bye for now.

1/Jan/17 Happy New Year

Good morning Cape Breton.

Maximus Handsomius here from my forever home.

So you can see by the picture, I am enjoying it outside.  Although it is cold out, it doesn't bother me.  It is going to warm up a bit and then it is going to rain.

I wonder when Tonya is going to notice that the outside decorations have been taken down?

They went out for New Year's last night and had a good time.  They got to meet someone that they recognized, but didn't know who she was.  Well it turns out, she works at the grocery store in Sydney Mines.

The Big Guy got to watch the new season of Letterkenny.  He thought this season was great.

I guess I am supposed to go a New Year's Resolution.  Mine will be to be a good dog and protect my forever home.  Try to poop outside and eat all my kibble.

I can see that someone is hung over today.  He wants to go lay down on the couch and watch TV.

Bye bye for now.
