Puns N Roses



My fear of roses is a thorny issue, I don't know what it stems from, but I am stuck with it!
I rose to the occasion and found these puns for you.

Actually I did get stuck with a thorn. When the roses died, I wanted to leave the pretty white  stuff, and as I put them in the trash bin, OUCH! Who knew roses have thorns, I said, I thought they trimmed them off at the Florists.
All I had to do to get these delivered to my door, was resign as TOPS leader. The next day they came with no name and said Thanks for all you did as leader.

Big Boy has a poem for you on Dog's N Roses today at Fourpawsetc.

You really do deserve them! They are so beautiful that they look artificial. And I thought they were.

Hello,

Your roses are beautiful. It was nice of the TOPS to send them to you, sorry you had to resign. Enjoy your day!

Clever! Ya, thorns are just another reason I'm not especially fond of roses. Gotta say, yours are beautiful … as is their gesture of thanks. That's downright heartwarming.

Awwww, that's so sweet of them to show you their appreciation with roses! (I used to listen to guns & roses often when Erik was home. Who knew that one day they'd actually sound better than the group's today?) I'm off to see B B now.

Beautiful roses. I am sure you went above and beyond what was asked of you, so the flowers are well deserved.

Well you know I love them...you were leader of TOPS for some time right?
Roses are well deserved.

Life can be so Thorny sometimes.
It was a lovely gesture from TOPS.
I think you made the right decision.
Hope you get some satisfying rest today.

It's nice to be appreciated. I love your nook and your pretty fairy lights.
Louis Dean loves to give roses and brags that he taught Mike to do it. I'm pretty sure Mike already knew but once Louis Dean gave Amber 2 dozen roses - instead of just a dozen. He said he was raising the bar!
In cleaning today, I found half a dozen paint brushes we have been missing. I told LD I was outting them all in a vase and making a paint brush bouquet! That way we can find them when we need them!
Florida and Texas are seeing the number of Covid cases soar....y'all stay careful as I know you do....and we will, too.
