4/Jul/17 is that food that's been dropped on the floor

Good morning Cape Breton.

Maximus Handsomius here from my forever home.

Well if my blog gets 20 views today, I will have been seen 15,000 times.  Is that a lot of views?

I feel like I am getting thirsty already.  They are going to be cutting the water supply from 9 till about 6 tonight.  The Big Guy filled up a container full of water.  There is no reason to feel thirsty.

But the Big Guy and Tonya better make sure they poop before the morning is out.  Otherwise, they can't flush the toilet.  At least not till later in the day.

This also means that Tonya can't be cleaning stuff.  This makes the Big Guy pretty happy.  He doesn't have to share her with the house.  He did laundry yesterday.  Of course, some of Tonya's stuff got into the dryer.  She isn't too happy about that.  Some of her stuff got hung up to dry, like she wants.

The Big Guy does NOT like his stuff being hung up on the clothes line.  He said that the clothes there are stiff.  That is unless there is a lot of wind.  Then the clothes gets beaten by the wind.  Yesterday was not a particularly windy day.  Just warm.

Of course the weather would be really nice on the day that Marcel and Kim leave to go back to Moncton.  Oh well, at least they had a nice travel day.

Bye bye for now.

3/Jul/17 don't pay attention to her, pat ME

Good morning Cape Breton.

Maximus Handsomius here from my forever home.

OK, this is pictures of my non-furry brother, Marcel and his wife Kim.  They are super nice people and I really don't want to them to leave today to go home.

They will pat me all the time and he takes the time to play with me.  Not rough playing.  She like to play as well, but not as much as Marcel.

We went for a walk yesterday and I seen the lady dog of my dreams, twice.  She was walking one way and I was walking the other way.  She laid on the ground and let me sniff her.  She would sniff me.  We didn't bark.  We know that we want to be in each other's lives.  Her name is Bailey.  I don't have any pictures of her just yet.  She is a Bernese Mountain Dog and 1/2 Great Pyrenees.

We will make beautiful puppies together.

I hear that she goes to the Dog Park every so often.  Perhaps some day, I will get to run around with her.  That would be fun!

The Big Guy has the day off today.  Of course the weather is going to be nice.  He has already mowed the lawn, so he really doesn't have any chores to do.  Yet.  That is until Tonya gets up.  Then she will have a honey-do list for him.

Bye bye for now.

2/Jul/17 they will NOT let me sleep

Good morning Cape Breton.

Maximus Handsomius here from my forever home.

You know, for adults, they certainly act like children.  They were dancing and making all kinds of noise.  Every time that I would try to catch 40 winks, the Big Guy would nudge me.  GAWD, I am so TIRED!

They they played music, really loud.  So I got up and went to the back door where there was peace and quiet.

Everyone was helping themselves to food

This was the designated smoking area

Where is MY hamburger?

Sitting out front as it wasn't as cold there

NO I WILL NOT LOOK AT YOU!

Kim knew it was only +12 outside

Our "disco" era living room

There was a lot of people that came by yesterday and they all had food on their plates.  I managed to get some of it.  People would sneak me some.  Pretty sure that the Big Guy would have only wanted to give me kibble and water.  He says that is what I should be eating.

If you look outside today, there is a lot of fog.  The Big Guy is supposed to be cooking ribs today.  Not sure that he will be doing that.  Then again, the weather doesn't bother him too much.  But I think he is going to be going to Canadian Tire and getting some new charcoal briquettes as they burn differently than the chunk charcoal.  Look, that guy gets the weird ideas about cooking.  But they seem to work out OK.  So Tonya lets him do stuff that he would normally never do.

A few people were setting off fireworks last night.  Not like Halloween.  Geesh, they go crazy for fireworks at Halloween around here.  Lots of noise.

Well, I am hoping that they do have ribs today and that I get to have a few bones.

Bye bye for now.

1/Jul/17 hold me like a baby

Good morning Cape Breton.

Maximus Handsomius here from my forever home.

So my non-furry brother and his wife arrived yesterday.  That is Kim and Marcel.  They are not afraid of me.  I would lay on the floor and get them to pat me.  When they would stop, I would get up and get all in their face.  They would pat me some more and I was happy.

The Big Guy wants to be BBQing later today.  But it's supposed to rain.  That is annoying.  Not heavy rain, but it's rain none the less.  That will limit the amount of partying that can be done on the deck.

Tonya and Kim were dancing a lot last night.  I wonder if Tonya is going to be hurting this morning.  I'm going to say, yes.

Did you see all the comments that the Big Guy got on Facebook?  He is really happy about that.  He plans to loose more weight.  Guess I will have to walk him more.

Tonya said that they were planning on having ribs tomorrow.  I wonder if that means I will be getting some bones?  

Yesterday the Big Guy went to Wal-Mart in North Sydney and he bought a BOX of BBQ sauce.  There is 10 bottles in the box.  He paid $5.00 for the entire box.  No tax cause it's a food item.  That is $0.50 a bottle.  Normally BBQ sauce goes for $3 to $4 a bottle.  He is quite happy with himself.  They had a whole pallet of the sauce at the front entrance.  It must have been a special buy.  Also, don't think's it's expired either.  It has a Best Before date of September 2018.

So unless they BBQ a lot, they shouldn't run out this season.

Before you ask him to go buy you some.  Consider this.  It would likely cost more to ship it, cause of the weight.

Bye bye for now.
