Yard:1, Aaron:0
(1)find a spot along the fence where there's sure to be a buried sprinkler line
(2)cut line with shovel
(3)spend 30 minutes trying to figure out/remember how to turn the sprinklers back on after being off for the winter.
(4)fill hole with water making sure it's a sprinkler line and not some random buried hose
(5)run to the store, buy stuff to fix
(6)fix line, cursing $!@ cheap harbor freight hose clamps that I "had on hand"
(7)turn on sprinklers to verify fix...and notice that the hole is 6" in front of a previously forgotten sprinkler head. (which would have destroyed the rose)
(8)fill in hole. walk quietly away meditating on the character building qualities of the previous 2.5 hours.

love you humble sharing!
LOL. That was funny.
Tell your wife maybe she should have you plant something edible...she knows my stand on rose bushes. :) Tell her raspberries have thorns if that's what she seeks!
Maybe the edible plants would give you less trouble! LOL
