I’ve neglected my roses since my soulcat passed

She would spend time with me daily while I tended to the roses and other plants in my garden but mostly the section with the roses. She passed suddenly in July and I couldn’t bring myself to garden without her. 2 weeks after that, I was supposed to get married and 3 weeks after that, my fiance left me.

I’m finally coming up for air and am so appreciative of how hardy roses are. I finally went to the roses to give them love but find myself still so emotional. I had just planted a rose bush in June for my ex

Gardening with my cat was one of my favorite activities but I’ve been so depressed that I’m slowly getting back into my hobbies. Unfortunately no cat this time though. I got a new one the day my fiance left bc I couldn’t bear the thought of a silent and empty house. Unfortunately she will never garden with me as I’ll never let another cat outside

ETA: the first picture is from our new place where she helped me create a rose garden just as she had done at our last house in the following pics :)

Fiance ended our 12 year relationship and left with the cat

He didn’t tell me he was taking the cat. I can’t eat bc I’m so heartbroken but I’m trying to manage with protein bars, peaches, and Gatorade

ETA: any support, words of encouragement, or advice on how to feel better would be appreciated. My other cat passed last month so it’s been blow after blow after blow

ETA2: the cat he took was our cat but had bonded strongly to him

ETA3: we broke up because he said he’s unhappy. He cancelled our July wedding so it wasn’t out of nowhere but we had been in counseling and I was thinking things were improving so in that sense it was sudden

So many things remind me of him. Everything I love or did is tied to him. I’m holed up in the guest room bc that’s the one place in the house he and I didn’t spend time. He’s living elsewhere right now so I technically have the whole house but I can’t bear to be out there

Wrong size item

Hi! I bought an umbrella stand that is not heavy enough for a standard backyard umbrella but did not know until I assembled it last night and woke up to it fallen over. No wind caused it

I’d like to return it and get the larger size but I see that to return, the item needs to be unopened. Thoughts?

Mulberry trees: do they work as bushes or compact?

I’m reading online that constricting the growth of a mulberry plant leads to smaller and less exciting fruit.

I was hoping to get a bush or a weeping variety that I can control better horizontally/keep more compact but I care more about the fruit than the size of the plant… I can always find another spot to put it!

Online Bare Root preorders

Hi! I remember presales popping up for bare root roses but am unsure when they post. I remember presales or preorders being priced well.

Where and when are you getting your bare roots this year?

What’s going on with Argentina’s Falklands banner following the semifinal match vs England?

Why did Argentina’s Falklands banner following the semifinal game controversial?

I apologize, I am really ignorant about this topic.

The article makes it seem like England took Argentinian land in the 1770s and they’ve tried to reclaim it… I’m not really sure why this is controversial. Please don’t get upset at my ignorance! I really want to understand the background

Thank you for the help with Suki’s passing

I posted about her over the weekend and everyone here was so helpful. I wanted to share some things that I am doing in her honor that help me feel better as well.

​I will be planting the tree in the last photo in the front yard in her honor. It’s about 5 feet right now and grows up to 25 feet.

I’m going to put a bench under it with the inscription:
Go gently into the stars
I will sing your memory among the leaves

People in my neighborhood loved her so it’s going to be a place for people to sit while on their walks

Suki was such a love bug and loved to snuggle. She was only 7 years old and was hit by a car a few days ago and didn’t make it. I’m just gutted.

Cat memorial

I’d like to make a memorial plaque on her behalf. Could someone help me make sure it’s correct in her honor?

Go gently into the stars
I will sing your memory among the trees

Pic is of Suki and a hobbit slipper she loved to bring around

Favorite band you’ll never see live

I would love to see Bloodhound Gang live but I wouldn’t be able to emotionally recover from whatever gross thing Evil Jared inevitably does

Whiskers

My wobbly boys loses whiskers WAY more frequently than any cat I’ve had. I always assumed it’s because he’s bumping into things :(

Does anyone else experience this?

Do I have to start at the entrance every time I want to quicksave in a temple? N64

The owl is always at the entrance. I find it hard to believe that I have to start from the entrance every time…
