Well, anywho...here it is, another week with Mama Kat.
This week's prompt that I have chosen to do is:
2.)Describe the most destructive thing your pet has done.
(inspired via Twitter by @alisha41481 from A Day In The Life Of Okie Rednecks)
Needless to say, I was not a happy camper the day my dog was nonetheless...DESTRUCTIVE! No sirree!
It all started in the bathroom. We remodeled our hall bathroom a couple years ago. We took out the old sink that had the counter that extended over the toilet. That just wasn't appealing to me. Instead, we went to Costco and bought a lovely wood vanity with a marble counter. Absolutely a beautiful piece of furniture, I might add. In fact, it has an antique look to it, if you ask me.
We got a nice mirror and light fixture to accent the vanity. A couple pictures to set the tone. I was pleased! It all came together so nicely. Didn't look like the same bathroom.
So, one day (about 9 mths ago maybe) when I was in the bathroom...looking around....doing my business....that's when I noticed it. *GASP* "BABE!!! Come here!!" My husband comes in the bathroom and I point to the bottom corner of the vanity. I couldn't believe my eyes. It was all chewed up in the corner.
Me: "How the heck did that happen"?
Hubby: I have no idea.
Noodle: I don't know. I didn't do it.
Me: You think Ozzy did that?
Hubby: Probably. (pause) OOOZZZZZY!
When I finally got up to get a closer look, I noticed on the side of the vanity that there was one of Ozzy's toys. He must have been trying to get his toy and in the process, thought gnawing on the vanity would help him retrieve it. I. DON'T. THINK. SO! But you can't tell a dog that. He's a dog for goodness sakes!
Meanwhile Ozzy comes in and we're all "Bad doggie. BAD!" pointing to what he did.
Needless to say, the vanity still looks like that. Maybe one of these days I'll get one of those wood pens. Maybe that will help. Or Not. Who knows, but I'm not happy about it.....still!
Now it's your turn. Head over to Mama Kat's and see what others are blogging about.

Your newly remodeled bathroom looks so nice. I can NOT believe the dog did that. That is craziness! I am sure it is not that noticeable though.... : ) Or maybe it is! You just gotta love dogs though, right?
Some days I miss my dog. Others. Not so much!
Your bathroom is really pretty. Sorry your pup added his own accents to it, though! ;)
I love it! The bathroom is beautiful even with the puppy teeth. I have a cedar chest that was my moms and a different dog chewed the corner of it. Gotta love 'em! Thanks for choosing my prompt!
I think Ozzy was upset he wasn't asked for any input regarding the new design!
I guess he gave it to you anyway!
Oh, maaan, Ozzy woulda got it! LOL!
Your bathroom does look very nice. I especially like the lighting. Guess Ozzy thought the vanity needed some remodeling.
Here's a link to my writer's workshop post on this topic:

Which is EXACTLY why we will never have a dog again.
