Dear Tyler,

Hi my sweet son! How are you doing on this Monday afternoon? Mom has been quite busy all day long today. It is 2:45 pm and I am just turning my computer on for the first time today. I was up at 7:30 am and I have been going nonstop. The weather here today is miserable. It is raining pretty hard and we just had a thunderstorm. Ozzy did pretty good through it but Princess...not so much. I am feeling a bit better today. The pain is tolerable at least. I slept from 10:30 pm until this morning so I am sure that helped out!  The pups were fed and walked this morning. Mom came upstairs and started her day. I decided that I was going to go through my closet and dresser. I was and did put everything in a bag that was too big, haven't worn and didn't want. Mark did the same thing yesterday and also Meme and Bob did as well. We have 6 huge bags that are going to donations tomorrow morning. I feel really good and the closet has a lot of space now! I plan on going through all the kitchen stuff as well. Anything that I haven't used in a year of being here then it is gone! I really need more space in there. Meme has almost the entire kitchen and that is not cool. Anyways....

Today is such a weird day. The weather is not helping anyone at all. Bob is sleeping as he did not sleep much last night. Meme is in the spare room with Rocky and she is watching tv. Mark is busting his butt with the 2 jobs and he is cranky. Mom is staying out of everyone's way and just doing my thing. Meme used the washer and dryer today.... I don't know what the heck happened but the dryer broke. I think she overloaded it. Mark was not happy at all. We now have to purchase a new washer and dryer. That is going to be over 1700.00. I haven't told him the cost so he is going to flip out when he hears it. I think the thing that upsets him is the fact that Meme did not offer to help out. They live here too and they use it more than we do. I think tonight will be a night of eating dinner and relaxing and going to bed early. I think everyone is tired. 

Grandpa and Debbie are doing ok. Grandpa is still having some issues that are concerning Mom. Debbie said that she would keep me posted on things. The weather in NH is cold and over the weekend they got snow. I think it is going to be a rough winter for them this year. I asked them if they gave it any more thought to moving and Debbie told me they wouldn't for another year or two. That hurt to hear this but I can't do anything about it. I can only hope they will come for a visit again after winter is over. If they don't then Mom will have to take a trip to them because I refuse to wait another year to see them again.

Aunt Beck is doing fine in Arizona. They are busy painting and landscaping their home. They are there until December so they have a lot of time to get to know the area and neighbors. I am happy for them. Haven't heard anything from Bean at all. Haven't in almost a year now. Mom is assuming that she is well. Maybe someday she will reach out to all of us. 

Not much else is new. Just busy as always. This week is pretty quiet for Mom so I may have time to work on my class tomorrow. I sure hope so. I need to. October Boxes are done and all out and I have almost everything for December except the next batch of the boxes themselves. I will order them in November and then I can curate the December Boxes and take my time with them! I am looking for February items already as well! I have a few ideas but not all of them. I have some time so I am not worried at all! 

Mom is going to close this letter for today as I would like to put the pillow on my head and face and relax for a bit before having to start the night routine stuff. I have about 90 minutes. I will light the candle for you tonight and also I will whisper to you before I go to bed. Smile for me when you hear my voice and I will smile to you as well. Have fun while I sleep and visit me in my dreams if you can. Thank you my sweet precious son. I miss you so much and I love you to the moon and back and all the way around the world. You are my hero and the wind beneath my wings. Forever you live in my heart, mind, body and soul. Until tomorrow comes... please continue to keep us safe and health. Good night and sweet dreams later.

Always, Mommy xoxoxo. Muah 💛
