Dear Tyler,

Hi my sweet son! How are you doing on this Thursday evening? Mom is running late tonight as I just got done taking a very long exam in my class.  It is after 5 pm and I need to feed the pups and walk them but I wanted to write to you before I did all that. 

Mom was up at 7 am.... the usual time. The pups were fed and walked and then Mom came upstairs, made the bed, and got ready. I left shortly after. I had to go to the post office and grocery shop. That was a complete bust though. Neither mine or Mark's ATM card worked in the machine today. I guess the store is no longer supporting our cards. Now we have to go 20 minutes or more to get cash when we need it and then 20 minutes the opposite direction to go to the bank. Mom was not happy. I got home and grabbed something to eat and then came into my office. I called the bank and told them what happened but honestly they didn't care. I immediately started my classwork right after. It was 3 long lessons. Lots of notes and then the exam was not like the normal one. It was 3 exams in one and there were 60 questions. I had 2 hours to complete it and I did it in 45 minutes. I got only 1 wrong! I was so stoked!!!! I am tired now and my brain is fried. I believe that I am close to 50 % now. That was my goal for the week. Tomorrow I have to go and try and find this bank and then come home to do more classwork and then Mom is taking the weekend off. I need that break from my boxes and my school after the week that I have had. Mark has been busting his butt too. He is still working as well. I am sure we will both be done by 5:30 pm and then eating dinner by 6 pm. That is the goal. Tonight we will be watching the debate in bed. In less then 12 days we will have either a new President or President Trump will be reelected. I think it is going to be a very tight race this time. I will not say who I am hoping for on here but I am praying hard that my choice wins by a landslide! We shall know in a few short days. I will tell you when it is official. 

Yesterday, I posted on here that I heard that friends of mine (husband & wife) both tested positive for Covid19. They both have such different symptoms. He was having a hard time breathing, a very high fever (105.1) lots of pain, couldn't sleep. She was having mild symptoms. No fever but as of last night she was vomiting. Today is a completely different story for them both. He is in more pain, no sleep still but the fever has gone down. She is so much worse. She can't move, get out of bed, eat anything as it doesn't stay down, can't hardly breathe and she has no smell or taste. He wants to take care of her but he can't. They have 2 kids and they tested negative so that is a good thing. Mom sent a prayer chain on social media for them both last night. I have been in touch this afternoon as well. We are all praying hard for them. A 3rd friend of mine lost her Dad last night or today. This is just horrible. 2020 has been such a tough year on so many. My heart hurts for them all. I think Mom is so scared right now as Mark's job wants him to go to the office 3 days a week starting the beginning of November. They didn't test any of their employees before hand and this is so scary. Please, Tyler, watch over Mark, Mom, Meme and Bob so that we are safe and healthy through all this. It means so much to me. Thank you my sweet precious son.

Mom had a candle burning for you all day but just blew it out because the wick somehow moved and it was burning the glass. I will wait for that to cool down and that candle will be thrown out. I will start a new one for you tomorrow. I will light up the candle warmer later though. I will whisper to you before I fall asleep tonight. Smile for me and I will smile to you. Come visit Mom in my dreams if you can. I miss you to infinity and back 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. I will be back tomorrow with another letter to you after I do some errands and classwork. Have fun while I sleep tonight. Mom needs to go now as Ozzy keeps jumping on me and crying. He is hungry. That is my cue....lol. Until tomorrow comes...good night and sweet dreams, pumpkin.

Always, Mommy xoxoxo. Muah 🎃💛🎃
