Sister's Choice Quilts

My interests are quilting, reading, cooking, family, decorating, and matters of style. I post regular quilting tutorials and book reviews of current fiction.

These Are What My Days Are Like

001

I think he is trying to tell me something…What could it be?

Honestly, this dog is such a clown.  If he isn't dozing on my favorite chair, he is teasing me with something.  He is so expressive and comical it is ridiculous.  He lives to torment me non stop 24/7.

003

It is so clear, what he is saying.  "Nicole.  Nic-ho-ho-hol?  What's wrong with this picture?  Tee hee hee".

"Betcha can't catch me!  Come on, at least TRY!"

So of course I fall for it every time and chase around the house after him shouting "Leave it!  LEAVE IT!"  It is no surprise those were my little grand daughter Eva's first words.  It is wildly amusing for both her and Ozzie to see me in such a fluff after him.

Yeah right.  Really funny.  He almost always wins too.

004

At least it wasn't worse.  Remember this?  My quilt top.  In the wet grass.

And when he killed THREE of my irons one after the other?

And this?   My new knitting project?

Or his all time worst, this…  No explanation necessary for this visual.

I don't know why I let him live.

  1. Ha ha, to funny!
    I feel for you, I too have a furry terrorist 🙂 (or 3) life would be totaly boring without them.
    I babysat my daughters dogs last weekend. After leaving the room for a few minutes I returned to find her little boy on my sewing table with his leg hicked, I screamed, he peed faster! All over my sewing machine…….. She recieved several colourful text and the machine was quickly stripped and serviced! (thanks sweetie) Needless to say, he’s no longer allowed in grandmaws sewing room!
    Your little man sure is handsome.
    Thanks for the chuckle,

  3. That’s so funny! You let him live because he’s soooo cute. He might drive you crazy but that’s what probably keeps you sane. Does that make sence? Give Ozzie a pet for me, have a happy weekend. ;->

  9. Wow! How’d he end up on your machine? Now that I’m impressed with. My dog Gabriel can match him for the rest, but she’s never gotten on the table. However, one time we fed her some raw fish for dinner. Instead of eating it, she decided it would be much better to pull it out of her bowl, drag it into the living room and roll around on it on the carpet. She has a penchant for rolling in dead stuff and other things that smell just as bad. Your stomach must hurt from laughing so hard at him. But laughter’s great exercise and also good for your heart!

  13. That is hilarious (for me not you). We have had a rough week around here (home invasion with my husband here!). All is fine with the exception of I no longer have an iPad and my nerves are shot. I really needed to smile and this definitely made my day. Good luck with that dog. He is definitely a constant challenge.

  19. Love your pics. Made my day to see other people have pets just like mine. My husband gave me a little Yorkie for Christmas and we have had several discussions about the iron cord and fabric and quilt pieces and various other fascinating items around the house. Enjoy!

  21. Ahhhh…cute, cute Ozzie. He is just trying to keep you on your toes Nicole, and seems he does a fine job of it, LOL. Way cute furry kid. Hugs to you and scratches to Ozzie…

  25. A whole Ozzie post! Yippee! I was happy to see him in his favorite chair in the background the other day and now, a whole blog entry just about him! The shoes are his biggest coup (shining glory/finest accomplishment??) don’t you think? He always makes me smile!

  27. Thanks for the laughs this morning but I realize it’s not all funny. I’d still be in mourning for those cute shoes. What a charming and adorable tormentor you have in Ozzie!
    Perhaps Ozzie is the class clown – as long as someone is laughing or chasing him, he’ll perform. Where is the nearest dog behavior modification class?! 🙂
    I enjoyed the Ozzie post!
    Hugs!

  29. Love your post this morning! What hilarity! Laughter is good medicine, we need more laughter in our lives. I just love that your granddaughter’s first words were Leave It ! Ha! you’ve made my day. The best photo is the one with the yarn. Just a hoot.

  35. Sweetie. I would advise getting him a friend, but that would likely backfire on you and you would be chasing two of them! Just wait until Eva gives you the same runaround! It won’t be long!

  45. How could you NOT let him live…he is so freaking cute! Thanks for the update on Ozzie. I think that post above about writing children’s books about him would be great!

  51. OMG, it might be because he’s just so DARN CUTE, that you can’t stay mad at him for more than a minute!

  57. Nicole, thank you for the Ozzie post! I was laughing so hard. One more pic I remember is the lipstick fiasco. I think Ozzie needs a weekly post, at least. LOL

  59. What ever happened to Sophie? Did I miss something along the way? I miss the squirrel escapades!

  61. He certainly knows how to get your attention. I’m guessing that’s his way of telling you that you are paying far too much attention to that grand baby and not enough to him!

  67. Those pics were GREAT!!! Thanks for my laugh of the day – and you posed the question “why do I let him live?” – it’s because he’s the cutest thing ever!

  69. LOL! I am so glad someone else has cute pets that don’t behave well. They are very loyal and keep you sane and happy even though the can frustrate the heck out of you.

  71. Way to funny and he really is cute. Guess he is looking for a bit of attention and wants to be the center of attention.

  73. ROFLOL. Priceless. And I can so relate. Mine’s a golden retriever and his first few years I thought would be the death of me. :O) It was touch and go there for a while….

  75. Thank you so much for showing this young man again. I wondered where he had got to but didn’t like to ask!
    He’s still as cute as ever!
    Cheers

  77. He’s very cute, but sorry I laughed out loud at the pictures of destruction! It’s also so funny that Eva’s first words were leave it. They could be much worse!

  79. Always fun to see what Ossie has been up to. He is totally gorgeous and a very naughty boy. At the least he could have his own blog:). Thank you for such a fun post, the photo with the wool wrapped around his head is too cute. Debra.

  85. Oh. My. You HAVE to love a doggy like that! He of course is saying to you, “What’s not to love?!?” So funny (from my side of the fence)

  89. Does he need food or water or just for you to chase him? What a rascal. Photos that definitely bring a laugh. And that Eva’s first words were “leave it” — too funny!

  91. that Ozzie of yours is too cute- do you still have the other dog too? I do remember when he got your shoes- man he really did damage that time.
    Hope all is well in your neck of the woods and you are staying warm.
    Warmest regards,

  95. Those pics of Ozzie are priceless. I do remember you posting some of those before and they still give me a smile. Nothing better than a dog with character!

  97. Oh, thank you for this post!
    And I hope he settles down soon. All those irons are cutting into your fabric budget and that is just wrong!
