Dear Tyler,

Hi my sweet son! How are you doing on this Thursday afternoon? Mom is doing alright. It is December 31st...New Years Eve. It is usually Mom's favorite holiday of the year but this year all these friggin renters are ruining it. Last night was the same as the last 9 nights. The renters were gone most of the day...back around 8 pm and they were yelling and screaming and lighting off fireworks until after 11 pm. There were 7 young kids in the pool/hot tub right next to us and they were screaming until after 11:30 pm. Mom called the police again. This morning there was super loud music playing at 5:30 am. It was so uncalled for. That lasted until about 9 am and then it stopped but the kids next door were back at it again at 9 am. It has been that way all day long. Some renters are gone for right now but will be back in the early evening again to raise hell until who knows when. Mom and Mark are so tired and exhausted from no sleep. It sucks. We know that fireworks will be going off almost all night tonight and at least until after midnight. We will be lucky to get to bed by 2 am. It will be another long and tiring night for us here. I hope that these renters leave and soon...like tomorrow morning would be great! After 10 nights of this BS I am ready for everyone to go away! Anyways.... tonight we are going to be eating all kinds of yummy food...a lot of your favorites and drinking yummy drinks as well. We are also going to play poker like we did on Christmas night. The winner again will win $50.00. I hope I am channeling you tonight and I win the money. I could use it! We will be playing again tomorrow night as well. Not sure if there is a prize or not but who cares...lol. Mom and Mark will ring in the new year with a toast and a drink and watch the ball drop like we did when you were here with us. Hopefully I can relax and mellow out and fall asleep shortly after. Last year it was so super quiet. Wish it was like that this year again. 

Tomorrow on New Years Day we will be taking down the Christmas decorations. As much as I love them and they are pretty...they have been up for over 6 weeks and it is time to get back to our normal decor..... lol. Saturday, Mark and Mom are going to go out for a bit and just do whatever...kind of a date day. Sunday at noon we are having a realtor come by and chat with us about putting the house on the market and what we can do and not do. We will get a lot of answers that is for sure so fingers crossed it goes in our favor. Please help us if you can. We need this move badly even though the thought of it makes me so angry. To do this again in 15 months is not what we had in mind but we can't stay here. That is not an option at all. We are all done with this place and the money we are soaking into it. Mom will update you on all that when I know of things. That is what the weekend looks like and then come Monday Mom will be busy again with the boxes and school. Mark will be working his 3 jobs and Meme and Bob will do the same ole thing...nothing. 

Mom wishes that you were here so bad. We used to have so much fun on New Years Eve. So many laughs, food, games, friends, family, etc.... oh the mess we would make as well. Mom would get you settled into bed while everyone else was sleeping and I would clean up all the mess. I didn't mind though. I could go at my own pace and it would keep me awake while caring for you. Those were the days. I miss you so much. 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. Have fun tonight up there wherever you are. I bet the fireworks and the lights all around the world are simply gorgeous from your view. If you can...help Mom down here so that things don't get out of hand and crazy with these renters. Please I am begging for a somewhat descent evening so that we can enjoy it as well. Thank you my sweet precious son. I will be back tomorrow with another letter to you. It will be the first one in the new year...2021! That sounds weird...lol. Come visit me in my dreams tonight if you can as well. I would love that. For now, I must get going so that I can get things set for the evening and I have a bunch of cooking to do. It is 4 pm and I will be lucky if I can get it all done by 6 pm...lol. Until tomorrow comes...good night and sweet dreams. Happy New Years Eve and after midnight, Mom will wish you a Happy New Year on your facebook page. I love you unconditionally.

Always, Mommy xoxoxo. Muah 🎉🎆🎊🎇🎩🎉 

 

 Dear Tyler,

Hi my sweet son! How are you doing on this Wednesday late afternoon? Mom is doing alright. It has been quite the night last night and day here. Last night we were hoping for a peaceful evening but that didn't happen. The renters were crazy loud. Mom called the police again last night on them and I gave them a piece of my mind. I was so angry and they knew it by the tone of my voice. By 9 pm the loudness stopped. Today, the other side with the renters started in. I called the police once again and they came out. The officer wanted to talk to Mom so I went outside and spoke to him in detail as to what we have been dealing with these past 9 days/nights. He was very nice and I appreciated that. I hope that tonight these renters will be quiet tonight because Mom knows that tomorrow night is going to be h*ll as it is New Years Eve. There will be so much partying and drinking and fireworks. Mom is going to try and get a lot of sleep tonight so that tomorrow I will be rested enough to deal with this BS that is coming. I will write to you more tomorrow and I am so sorry for a short letter tonight. The time got the best of me today and I am running late with feeding the pups and getting dinner going. It is almost 5:30 pm. I know you understand. I have had a candle lit for you all day. I will whisper to you later this evening so smile for Mom and I will smile to you my sweet precious son. I miss you like crazy. 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 our hearts, mind, body and soul. Please continue to watch over us. Keep us safe and healthy. Have fun tonight and come visit Mom in my dreams if you can. Until tomorrow comes...good night and sweet dreams, pumpkin.

Always, Mommy xoxoxo. Muah 💖

 

 Dear Tyler,

Hi my sweet son! How are you doing on this Tuesday afternoon? Mom is doing alright but I am so dang exhausted. The renters were somewhat quiet last night but Mom was so worried about Ozzy that I was up every hour checking on him to make sure he was ok. I was still up at 7 am feeding them and taking them for a walk. After that I was upstairs making the bed and getting ready. Mom had errands to do today so I left at 10 am. I didn't get all that I wanted to done though because while at the grocery store, some lady slammed her grocery cart into my right elbow and smashed it. She never said anything. I was so mad and in a bit of pain. Mom decided that after grocery shopping, I was going to make it to the post office and then home. I got everything out of the car, put away and had a bit of lunch too. It was about 2:30 pm when I came upstairs to my office. It is now 3:42 pm. I still have some things to do before I start the night routine stuff but I wanted to write to you briefly to say hello and to tell you how much I love and miss you. 

Today was a tough day for my friends in NH. It was the day that the girl I was telling you about last week, in one of my letters to you, that passed away...today was her funeral and burial. auntie Kristina was there along with many of Mom's family and friends. we all went to school with her or worked with her. She didn't realize how much she was loved. I hope she does now. She needs to know this. Her flowers were beautiful and her Urn is purple with a silver butterfly on it. Just gorgeous...like her soul. May "TS" R.I.P. now for eternal life and may she fly high and free with the Angels for eternal life. 

Tonight will be about the same as last night. Mom will make dinner while Mark is sitting on the couch with the pups. we will eat, I will clean up and then we will come upstairs and just watch tv. This way we can keep Ozzy in one spot and not have him move around so much. He is doing a bit better today but not as well as I would like to see. maybe in a couple days though. I think we are on the right path. Please continue to help him if you can. Mom would appreciate it so much. Thank you my sweet precious son. 

Mom can't believe that in 3 days it will be a new year. It will officially be 2021. I sure hope that after the crap we have been through during Christmas that new years eve will be a bit more mellow but I have my doubts. Something tells me that this place is going to be party central and that there is going to be a lot of trouble. Mom is keeping her fingers crossed though that I am wrong. If you can help us in that area as well...Mom would so appreciate it. I need to get some much needed sleep as today makes 7 days with only 4 hours sleep each night thanks to the renters. I am having a hard time functioning. I get so stressed out because of these people. The lack of respect and all the disrespect that we get. It sucks...plain English! 

Not much else is going on. After the new year, Mom is going to get her butt in gear and finish off her classwork so that I can be done for good. I have the February Box coming up as well. This is a super fun box! I can't wait to put it together!!! I think all my subscribers will love it and that I will get new ones too! Well, Mom will keep you posted on all this stuff that is happening around here. I will be back tomorrow with another letter to you too. Have fun while I sleep tonight. Come visit me in my dreams if you can. 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 light a candle tonight for you and I will also whisper to you before I fall asleep. Smile to Mom and I will smile to you, pumpkin. Until tomorrow comes.... good night and sweet dreams. I miss you more than words can say....

Always, Mommy xoxoxo. Muah 🎩🎆🎊🎇🎉

 

 Dear Tyler,

Hi my sweet son! How are you doing on this Monday afternoon? Mom is doing alright but I am very worried...more on that in a minute. Mom is happy to be writing to you today. I took yesterday off as it was Mark and Mom's anniversary. I have so much to tell you so I am going to get started.

Saturday~ Mom told you on the letter Saturday afternoon that we were going to Give Kids the World that evening to see the Night of a million stars. we left at 4:15 pm and got home around 7:30 pm. It was so cold but it was so worth it. Tyler, it was so magical and beautiful. I got to talk about you and our time there back in 1995. They all welcomed Mom back home. I got to go inside the castle and see how it still is the same in some ways and how it is different. It brought back so many memories for me. I spoke to a volunteer that lives right next to us in the next community. She is a cancer survivor too and also an Angel Mom. She has been volunteering for 18 years. We have so much in common. She was so sweet. Another girl tried helping Mom find your star that was on the ceiling. We could not locate it at that time but guess what.... she sent me an email and your star was found. I got to see the pictures last night. It was super emotional. So much has changed there but they still have Ole Elmer the tree and the carousel that you rode. The lights were beautiful. I hope you were there with Mom. I am so happy that I went and got to take Mark, Meme and Bob. 

Sunday~ Mom and Mark got up, fed the pups, walked them and then we got ready ourselves and left for a couple of hours. We got home around 2 pm. We have some lunch and then we decided to watch the new Wonder Women movie. That didn't get over until 5:30 pm. We fed the pups, took them for their walk and then decided on what we were having for dinner. It was nothing special that is for sure but we were together so that was all that mattered. After dinner, Mom cleaned up and spoke to Bean as it was her Birthday and she was calling to wish us a Happy Anniversary. She is doing really well. She is happy and sounds great! After that, we headed upstairs to get settled in for the night. We watch the new Disney movie Soul. That was amazing. I loved it. That didn't get over until 10 pm. We ended up having to call the police on the 2 houses again. They are still doing the same crap but last night they were lighting off fireworks as well. It was horrible. I think Mom finally got to bed after midnight. These last several days of not getting any sleep are really starting to catch up with me. I am so tired. I hope these guys leave soon. I was hoping that today would be the day but no luck...maybe tomorrow. 

Monday~ This morning we were up at 7 am doing the usual things. Feeding the pups and walking them. Mark took Princess to go get her nails trimmed. He left at 9:30 am and he was back home at 10:30 am. She is feeling better now. Mom was done and ready by 9:30 am and making breakfast when Mark got home. I cleaned the dishes and then headed to my office. Meme and Bob left for a few hours today. When she got home, I was on the phone with Auntie Kristina. I thought Ozzy was in the office with me but he wasn't. She came in my room and asked what happened to him. I didn't know what she was talking about but when I looked down he was limping on the foot where he has the injury. All I can think of is that he was on the bed, he didn't use the ramp and he jump and hurt himself again. This is not good. He was limping just a little bit but as time is moving he is limping more and more. Mom gave him so medicine to see if that will help him. He is sleeping right next to me right now. I am hoping that when he wakes up he will be feeling better. Mom is scared. Please help Ozzy if you can. I can't go through this again with him and he can't go through it either. Please just let him be okay after he naps for a couple hours. He has to be ok. Mom is praying hard on this. Please do what you can, pumpkin. Thank you so much. 

Tonight will be about feeding the pups, walking them and watching Ozzy to make sure he is doing ok. I think we will spend the time in the bedroom so that he can get comfortable with us being close by. Again...Mom's fingers are crossed that Ozzy will be better in the next few hours. dinner will be quick and simple again tonight. Hopefully we will be able to get some solid sleep. Have fun while we do sleep. Come visit Mom if you can in my dreams. Thank you my sweet precious son. I love you more than anything. 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. Mom will light the warmer or a candle for you tonight. I will whisper to you later as well so smile for me and I will smile back to you. I will return tomorrow with another letter to you. Mom is home all day doing a few things here and there while Mark takes my vehicle to his office again. It is 3:49 pm. Mom is going to go get things started for the night routine. Before that though, I have a few things to do. Until tomorrow comes...good night and sweet dreams later. Please continue to watch over us and keep us safe and healthy. Thank you. I miss you more than words....

Always,

Mommy xoxoxo. Muah 🎊🎩🎉🎆 💜

 

 Dear Tyler,

Hi my sweet son! How are you doing on this Saturday afternoon? Mom is doing alright. It is 2:30 pm and Mom needs to write to you know as in 2 hours I will be heading out for a few and not getting back until later this evening...around 7:30 pm. When we get home we will be having dinner late and Mom will be tired so I wanted to write this letter to you now. 

Today is sunny and cold again. Mom has had to call the police every day since Wednesday on the renters that are on both sides of us. They are so loud and Mom is not getting any sleep at all thanks to them. I really hope they leave tomorrow and we have quieter neighbors this next time. Mom is tired of not getting enough sleep. I am getting to the point where I am not functioning. I have a ton of things to do and I just can't. I am run down. I can't wait for either the country to be shut down again and no renters for awhile or that we move and get out of this place altogether! Anyways....

Mom was up at 7 am or earlier. The pups were fed and walked. We had breakfast and then Mom did what has been needing to get done... I vacuumed the upstairs and the downstairs, mopped the floors downstairs, did the laundry and then got ready. That took me until about 11:30 am. Meme said that she was going to take Bob to the hospital as his blood pressure was still very high. Guess she called someone and they told her to do it. Bob refused. He wouldn't go. I took his blood pressure and it was high but not as high as it has been. I told him to retake it in a couple hours and he just did. It is creeping back up. He should have gone. I can't do anything about it though. It is not my decision but when he is doing nothing but eating and sleeping and his blood pressure is as high as it is....it doesn't take a rocket scientist....UGH... Mom will keep you posted on things.

Ok...so the exciting news that I wanted to share with you is where Mom is going this evening. I am going to Give Kids the World. Do you remember that place? It is where we stayed when you were a Wish Child. You were 4 years old. We went with Dad, and your nurses Diane and Dee. We had so much fun. That was our very first time coming to Florida. It was way back in 1995. When you go there you never get the chance to return as it is for Make A Wish and Wish Children like you but this year they are doing a special thing where there are like 3 million lights around the grounds of the place. They opened it to the public and Mom got tickets to go. All proceeds go back to Make A Wish and Give Kids the World. I am so excited to go. I can't wait to see what is still the same, if anything and what has changed through the years. Mom is hoping that I can take pictures but I am not sure. It will be very emotional for me as I have been there just once and it was with you. Mom knows that I will never be able to go back again so this is really special to me. I hope that you are with me during this experience. Please send me a sign my sweet precious son. Thank you. Mom will tell you all about it on the next letter. I don't think I will be writing one tomorrow though as it is Mark and Mom's 6th Wedding Anniversary. we are going to go out for a bit and enjoy a date day and then later come home and watch a couple movies with Meme and Bob if they want. I will be back Monday though with another letter to you. I will tell you about it then...promise!

I have to get going now though as I have to do all the dog stuff early so that we can leave. I have to still feed them, walk them and then get things set for us all. I will light a candle when we are relaxing in bed tonight and Mom will whisper to you before I fall asleep...hopefully I can get a good nights rest....fingers are crossed! Smile for me and I will smile to you. Please watch over us and continue to keep us all safe and healthy during these trying times. Thank you. Have fun doing all things that you want to do and need to do. Come visit me in my dreams if you can. 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 miss you more than words, Tyler. Until tomorrow comes...good night and sweet dreams later tonight.

Always, Mommy xoxoxo. Muah 💖
