My dog Misha ate my rose bushes to the ground.

I saw her gobble up a rose my neighbor had just cut and laid on the ground.
My dad has trouble with squirrels snipping blooms and live branches off his hydrangeas, so they could be the culprit. And rabbits are notorious for stuff like that. You could try tying a terrier out there to guard them when you are home during the day I suppose.

I have 3 spirea bushes.
They are recommended for sun, but a tiny bit of shade is okay, I notice. Just changes the chartreuse leaf color of mine to more of a spring green color that is very nice. The flowers are forming now, and the bees will soon be lining up. The bumblebees and butterflies love them. The flower surfaces are wide, made up of many tiny flowers. The bees are so happy that's where they will take a nap - to guard a flower.
why ground him?
he may relate to this group, he has not been in trouble, these people may understand how feels about his life. His test was negative, why ground him, no doubt he is upset by what you did. Explain to him that alcohol is a lot more dangerous than marijuana. Keep dumb____ brother in law away, he is ignorant; tell every one so. Tell your son he is important. Tell him you love him, daily.
Wow - that could be a lot of ground
to cover! I'm in NC, and I'd save that trip for a time where you just want to relax at the beach or enjoy the mountains.
DC was great, but wow did it wear us out. The Metro was the way to go for getting around, but there was still a lot of acreage to cover on foot. That's one place it would be nice if they offered those motorized stand-up vehicles like mailmen use, but you'd need to be able to get one every time you got off the Metro.
Now I know who Rose is
I think they moved nutcase to the other room because they had too many leaving and had to get a certain number in those staying. Rose seemed so sweet and seemed so put together for such a young age. The character, that is the 1 who cannot decide whether his name is this or that? He has a pretty good voice. I think he is probably not going to last long but for right now he is entertaining and the others seem to like him. Danny is the guy who lost his wife. I just want to give him a big bear hug. As time goes on I will learn more of their names. Tonight is 2 hours and I do not even accept phone calls while my show is on (except for an aunt, she is the exception to this rule).
I have 3 lbs of ground beef, and...
Personally, I could eat cheeseburgers every night, but the boys are pretty tired of that. And I'm tired of all the other 'regulars' like meatloaf and tacos, and even shepherd's pie. What else is quick and somewhat simple that is 'throw-together' from the pantry?
Of course, my 4-year-old is finicky, and I usually give him the options of eating whatever I make or going hungry, but hopefully I'll get some suggestions that might be up his alley, too.
I have 1 lb of ground beef in the
fridge and expect my husband to call any time now to ask "what's for dinner". Any ideas? Yesterday I suggested taco salad, chili mac, chili and plain ole hamburgers but all got vetoed. Of course, he had no suggestions to help me out.
Ground beef
Ground beef
Tator tots
french style greenbeans - drained really well
cream of mush. soup diluted with milk enough to pour over top
Brown ground beef with your favorite seasonings.
Spray bottom of a baking dish with pam, layer with tator tots, spread green beans over that, then ground beef and top with cream of mush soup bake til hot and bubbly.
Kortney Rose
My daughters name is Courtney Rose and I wanted to spell it with a K but hubby wanted a C. So a K would work!
No actually thought maybe you, your go by Rose
maybe shortened version. Fess up now!

I felt the same way about Rose.
She got stuck with a crappy group and had to pay for it. I liked voice and her a lot.
Stand your ground. Some day she will really "grow up" and
appreciate your concerns and your advice.
It's hard to be mom some days aint it?
Hang in there.
Cars that drive on the ground.
I was sure everybody would be having cars that fly by now.
Also, I thought that sidewalks would move and we would not have to walk at all.
I never thought we'd still be cooking on top the stove, I thought there would be replicators (little machines we hit a button and comes out our supper or drinks).
For some reason, the Walt Disney version of the future, a ride which no longer exists in Orlando, BTW was my idea of the 21st century. Turns out that it is much different.
Yet, what do we have that we would have never thought about?
The Internet. 30 years ago such an idea would seem impossible.
If you have facebook and really liked Rose Flack (sm)
you can join a group on there to support her. It probably will not get her back on, but it would probably really make her feel better to see how many people supported her. So if you do have facebook and liked her, please join and forward an invite to your friends :)
-15 in Nebr tonight, snow on the ground
and have a cedar tree up ! now it feels like Christmas!! We had a high of 3 degrees today...but will warm up to 20s tomorrow and thats gonna feel like t=shirt weather :)
I found this after your question rose my curiosity..sm
I found this on MedlinePlus site
Causes, incidence, and risk factors Return to top
Endocarditis can involve the heart muscle, heart valves, or lining of the heart. Most people who develop endocarditis have underlying valvular heart disease.
Injection drug use, recent dental surgery, permanent central venous access lines, prior valve surgery, and weakened valves are risk factors for developing endocarditis.
Bacterial infection is the most common source of endocarditis. However, it can also be caused by fungi. In some cases, no causative organism can be identified.

hope this helps some. perhaps that tv program should get their facts straight. lol.
I agree, best ever this time...was so sad to see Rose go home though nm

Melitta is wonderful if you're not using other fresh ground. nm

what??? He walks out on his mom when she tells him to stay in the house, and do not ground him????
I am sorry, but she was absolutely right to ground him. He is hanging around with kids that are way older than him and drinking... You think it is okay to let that go?? I say he needs to learn that he is not the one in charge of this family and thatn Mom is... Every family has rules for their children and if the rules for that family are broken, it is the responsiblity of the parents to dish out the consequences. Yes encourage the good behavior and by all means tell them that you love them unconditionally every day (several times), but you are not their buddy, you are their parent
Katherine Rose sounds beautiful to me - very classy nt

I wish they'd kick Tatiana off and bring Rose back! NM

Misha
My deepest sympathies are with you. Losing a loved one -- be it two- or four-legged -- is among the most horrific things one must face. Dogs, cats, et AL are all children to us who love them, and we mourn them as deeply as we would a human. My prayers will be with you and Sasha, who must surely feel the loss as well.
Yea, Misha....
this thread was nice. Thanks for starting it! 
Misha- How is CJ?
I've been thinking about you both.
Oh Misha, I'm so sorry about CJ.
You went above and beyond for him. I am so sorry for your loss and the huge hole in your heart. 
Oh Misha, I'm so sorry...sm
I always read your posts with interest since I have (well, *had,* sniff...) Siberian Huskies too. I lost my Siberian, Alexx, in January, at age 15 yrs. I had to make the painful decision to let her go.
Then, just this past July, I lost my 'baby,' my Siberian Husky, Wiley. He died suddenly at home one morning, in my arms, of what the vets think was a pulmonary embolism. He was 12 years old and had been in poor health for about the last year, with some serious chronic issues, but he was making progress, so it was shocking, devastating, to lose him so suddenly like that.
My heart goes out to you. Really, there are no words. But here is a poem that I hope will bring you some comfort:
'We who choose to surround
ourselves with lives even more
temporary than our own,
live within a fragile circle,
easily and often breached.
Unable to accept its awful gaps,
we still would live no other way.
We cherish memory as the only
certain immortality, never fully understanding
the necessary plan.'
From The Once Again Prince,
by Irving Townsend
Take care of yourself, and know that you did everything you could. I hope the memories of the many happy times you spent with CJ will live with you for decades to come. - Lisa
Yes, Misha, I know what you mean
They are using new products and new techniques. I know this because prior to the past year or so I went to different places and never had a single problem. I always got a heavy highlight that looked more yellow or pale golden blonde with just foiling and not even a toner, very pretty and flattering with no stripes, almost looked like an overall color.
Now the past year or so they look beige or almost silver gray and very drab and clash with my natural color. I know of one product so far called ''Maji'' blond that does this because I had it before at another salon (too bad this time she didn't mention until after) and the same thing happened! I hate it.
Then she told me the older and cheaper bleaches tend to be more yellow. WELL, THEN WHY DIDN'T YOU USE THAT! I even brought an old picture and she could see it was more golden than grayish (which is how ash can appear) and I have no gray.
I also don't like the technique she used, weaving? (which in layman terms must mean stripes)! Ugh, I never had that before either.
It is just an overall very unflattering look. When I look around, sure enough this is what must be in, because it is what most people have. And drab hair is unflattering on most people so I just don't get it.
I am just so frustrated.
:(
You go Misha!
Congratulations on your first night with him! They just love to test their boundaries don't they?! Glad to hear you weren't havin' any of that...sometimes it really throws folks. I know I sure can be intimitated at times by strange animals.
I also crate too, much to the shagrin of PETA-like folks. It is a wonderful tool and every night when we get ready for bed I say, "In the hut" and the two little guys go RUNNING in there to play with all their toys and each other in their little den. They absolutely love it and are only locked in it for the night so I can guarantee there won't be any accidental pee/poop when we all rise-n-shine in the morning. During the day I leave their door open to the crate and they still go in there just to hang out and play with the stuff in there or just take naps together. Darndest thing.
Feel free to e-mail me again if you have any pictures you want to share with us...I'd be more than happy to post them for you!
Congratulations again Misha and Cedric!
to may, misha, etc. :-) sm
This is SO funny! First off, she is a kid, but she's a 20-year-old kid with little (size 6) feet ;-)
She was very amused by this thread. She came in last night and I said, 'Someone insulted your feet!' She totally cracked up when she read everything. She looked at her feet and said, 'OMG, I DO have a gap! You can fit a finger in there!' Then it dawned on her... as she was putting on her flips... 'Tell them that I'm a Florida girl and I NEED that gap so I can slip into my flips easier.' She only wears real shoes when it's cold or when she's dressed up ;-)
Thank you all for the kind responses and the fun. Funny how threads can just take on a mind of their own.
Misha, glad you had success with your bunion surgery. I went to a foot doctor a while back and he told me they'd have to basically break all the bones in my toes to fix everything. Didn't sound like fun LOL
Again, thanks and happy New Year to all!
So sorry Misha
Had the same thing happen in the same way with my Max many years ago only metastatic bone to lung. Thankfully she didn't suffer and had a wonderful friend in you! She was really pretty... There's a really nice message in a post from Romey to Grieving a Lot below on this page.
Oh, Misha, I'm so sorry
What a beautiful dog. Now your dogs are together again. Hugs to you and your family.
Misha...
What an absolutely beautiful animal :-)
I admire your love and dedication to your animals and I am so sorry for your loss.
Misha's weekend
I don't have much new to report about Misha, except that we did get out and go to PetsMart and she enjoyed more attention than usual from two-footed admirers of all sizes. My new prednisone dosing technique seemed to work - no crashing. She wouldn't eat out of a dog bowl, but she would suck canned food- Blue Buffalo lamb recipe - off my fingers, which was quite endearing. Sasha watched me hand-feed Misha and wouldn't touch her bowl until I had hand-fed HER 3 bites too. So I'm creating two monsters, but it felt pretty good at the time. I also got her to eat some Jumbone-type treats also, so at least she's not going to starve. :o}
Misha's Mom. Are you OK? I've been
thinking about you all. Hope you're doing OK. How is Sasha?
I was so sorry to hear about Misha. sm
Having Siberians (see my post above) and having done Siberian Husky rescue for 6 years (in the past), I feel a kinship with you. I just wanted to say hi and tell you my thoughts have been with you. Misha makes me think of my Cherokee...
It was a nice day Misha....
I'm glad the time changed. Longer days, more sunshine! LOL I'm ready for the new season... Would love to do some clothes shopping! 
Misha, I listened to what you said
and I went yesterday and got some arch supports - hubby said he should get me some good ones but at least I have a start with some WalMarts. The shooting pain hit both Saturday, Sunday and Monday morning and I am knocking on wood as I type, hoping this will alleviate that pain- none since I put those in my sandals. Gosh, just to think, if it did, how much I have spent trying to find a cure for this and it might have been less than 10$ all along? I am wearing them with my Bergies and strange feeling at first but I have not been without them at all, no barefoot, nothing except the arches and we will see!
That's good Misha - thanks :-) (nm)

I'm so very sorry for your loss, Misha.

Everyone, say hello to Misha's new boy, Cedric!
Oh don't you just wanna plant a huge kiss that little head?! Congratulations Misha!
Thanks Hayseed - and Misha
is today the day you get your new baby?
Nicely put, Misha! nm

Careful, Misha. sm
He seems laid back now because you're in the 'honeymoon' phase. He's a husky, he's lulling you into a false sense of security! LOL Just kidding. He is a handsome boy and looks very sweet.
I might have missed it - you said you're fostering him, right? Is it really just fostering, or will you be adopting him (whether you intended to or not - that's called failing fostering 101, and I have done it *twice* myself! LOL)
Misha - I don't think it's *humiliating*....
it just is what it is.........you do what you can - but humiliating? I don't think so..........
Misha, please fill me in on the hypermobile
arches, first I have heard of this. I used to go barefoot all the time and thought at first this might have been where this came from, do not do that anymore. The current is exactly in the arch so tell me more, if you know. Thanks
Did Misha spit out the thorns?

Another note on these wrists and Misha
Ok, I have tried some of the suggestions. I folded the towel and used that but it runs my keyboard off the back and does not seem to have enough room for my mouse so that is cumbersome. I bought the wrist supports at Wal-Mart last night and am trying those today and finally want to know where I can purchase those softflex gloves you spoke of Misha. I will try any and all because of the discomfort every single day. Thanks!
Good post again Misha.......no msg
When Misha first started insisting on
sleeping outside because the weather had turned cold and she was a husky and she was quite insistent about it, I thought she was too young to be sleeping without her pack. So I would turn on back yard lights to check on her. Sometimes I would see she was lying out there with all her stuffed animals collected in a little semicircle in front of her.
Awwww. I miss her too.

This picture just slayed me!
