This blog post will be incredibly short as the day that I never wanted to come is near. Tomorrow I will be saying goodbye to my beloved Jolie – my canine companion for over fourteen years.
Jared and I will be lavishing her with treats, sniffing excursions outside in her favorite sections of grass (near trash cans, please) and giving lots of lots of snuggles this weekend.
I can't stop crying.
I am not sure when Work, Play and Chardonnay will be back as I taking time to grieve my Lady Underbite.
One last quote that was in an email from the service we are using to honor our final moments with our girl. It's gut-wrenching yet captures my feelings perfectly.
“How lucky am I to have something that makes saying goodbye so hard.”

I love you, Jolie. I will always, always, always be your doggie mom.

Thinking of you!
Thanks, Kel. What a time.
So sorry!
Please give that little sweetie a hug from me. And give yourself one as well. She has left loving paw prints on many lucky hearts.
So much love I am sending your way.
Sending love, hugs, and prayers through this difficult time!
Thank you, Laura Beth. Jolie was a gem. Grief is quite the process, isn’t it?
You’re welcome. Absolutely – Everyone grieves loss in their own way.
So sorry to hear this! Losing a pup is awful. Sending hugs.
Thank you so much. It’s been really hard, but I am so, so happy that she and I had the time that we did.
