Dear Tyler,

Hi pumpkin! How are you doing on this Thursday afternoon? Mom is not doing the greatest and I am feeling really down in the dumps and defeated right now. I will explain in a bit though.

It was a typical day here...up at the same time as always and the pups were fed and walked. Mom came right upstairs to send emails out and then got ready. We had to meet our realtor at the new house to do a walk through with her. We got there a bit early and we stayed for about an hour and then left. Mom took a bunch of pictures for us all. This is where I was and still am quite discouraged.... the house is beautiful and would be big enough for just Mark, Mom and the pups but I am afraid that it will not be big enough for the 4 of us at all. The rooms are a lot smaller then what I remember and there is not a lot of privacy at all. I have to say that I am quite sadden at the decisions that we made but at the time we were under a lot of pressure and there wasn't much out there at all. We were in a pinch and now we are going to pay for it...I think. I know that we now have to live very minimal and that will be very difficult for Meme and Bob. There is not much room to do a whole lot. I think a lot of stuff is going to be donated. left here or just thrown away at this point. I refuse to take stuff with me if I have to purge at the other home and waste more money. We got back home and Mom showed Meme the pictures and she was not happy either. She says this is a waste of money to purchase this new place. I told her we are stuck with it now. No turning back at all. I came right out and said that why is she so angry as she is not paying for the place...all she has to do is really downsize and that is it and she won't even do that. I know she is not going to be happy there. With the lack of space and Rocky, I think she is going to take a look at it and decide that they...her and Bob are going to get their own place. Maybe this is why it is happening so that they can get their own place, Mom doesn't know right now. what I do know is that we are 7 days from being out of here and we should be excited but that is not the case. Mark still needs to pack, he needs to take the time off from work to help Mom and he is not and everything is being left to me to do yet again.... Mom needs to get with it and I have a lot to do in the next week. I have to pack up stuff, unpack stuff and then I also have to redo some of my boxes. My head is not in the game right now at all. I need to get a good night sleep and wake up in the morning ready to go. I have a few errands to run in the morning but then I will be back home getting things together. Over the weekend, I will not be on my computer so that I can use all the time and daylight that I have to get crap done. I will hop on Sunday, Easter and write to you but Mom will be taking Saturday off. Not much is open tomorrow so I am hoping to get a lot accomplished during the day time. we shall see. I am sorry that this is not an "upbeat" letter but I don't feel upbeat at all and I don't feel I should pretend. I know you understand my sweet precious son. I love you with all my heart. 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 the candle warmer for you later and whisper to you before I fall asleep so please smile to me when you hear my voice and I will smile to you. Have fun and come visit me in my dreams if you can tonight. Please continue to watch over us all and keep us safe and healthy. Thank you. I will be back tomorrow for another letter. I need to get going as it is after 5 pm and the night stuff needs to happen. I am sorry for this.... until tomorrow comes....good night and sweet dreams. I miss you more than words can say.

Always, Mommy xoxoxo. Muah 🐥💜🐰💛
