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 🎉🎆🎊🎇🎩🎉
