Just a gentle reminder that today is December 60th, 2020.
Here’s hoping that this will finally be the end of The Year That Lasted Forever.
We hope things are looking up for you. Max wanted to offer his outlook on the balance of the year.

He’s a very cynical little dog. I just wish he’d use more pixels when posting his stuff.
Disclosure: I’ve been “sitting” on this post for a month debating whether it was too negative or too coarse for this silly dog blog which always tries to be positive and upbeat. I finally said, “Oh what the heck, just publish it.”I hope no one is distressed by this post; it is meant in a lighthearted way. I mean, what could be funnier than a dog biting one’s nuts? Wait a minute…😃

“Never sit on a post.” I see what you did there. 😛 I agree that we should blame Max for everything. Lois is quite good at capturing the moment, it’s too bad she’s such a cat person but it is what it is. Maybe Coop could stand on Max’s shoulders?

It’s always a risk that what was intended as a harmless post is misinteroreted or just hits somebody wrong on a particular day. Outrage is all the thing these days. Max and I have trouble generating enough energy to be outraged at too many things. “This too shall pass” is our usual attitude.

As promised but yours is better:
There was a young man out for fun,
He played on the beach in the sun.
Had a dog name of “Cutlass,”
Who rendered him nutless
Thus his romantic summer was done.

2020 was a strange year for us, with a mix of ups and downs. However, we’ve largely been spared here from the virus, but not always from tight restrictions and given my health status, I’m particularly careful. The doggoes have liked having more of us at home too.
Wishing you a Happy New Year!
