One of my best friends was having a very bad day today. He's too far away for me to give him a hug or be of any help. So, I promised him that after I got home from work, I would get myself a glass of wine and offer up a toast to him at 10 pm EST. He's promised to do the same. See, his dog is pretty sick and may not last the week. All he can do is be of comfort to the dog and help her cross over when her time comes. I know General will be here waiting to greet her and show her around.Love sure hurts sometimes. But we would never know how good love feels if we do not risk the hurt too. And we know in these cases that those who leave us never really stop loving us, and we never stop loving them.
Please join us if you can for that glass of wine.
Salute, Bello! Godspeed, Nikki

awwww. I am so sorry.
Oh Woo. Saying goodbye is always so hard. Mom really loved what Gretchen Jackson - the owner of Barbaro said shortly after he passed on. "Grief is the price we pay for love". She's so right. Safe trip sweet Nikki. Find our Merlin and tell him we miss him.

Aww.. this is so sad! Humm.. Mom said that she will offer up a glass of wine tonight too to send her positive thoughts to your friend.
Hugs,
