Dear Tyler,
Hi my sweet son! How are you doing on this Tuesday afternoon? Mom is doing much better than I was yesterday and Sunday night but I am not 100% back to myself just yet. I am so sorry that I didn't write to you yesterday but I just couldn't. Let me explain: Sunday evening I wrote to you before it was time to feed the pups and make dinner ourselves. I felt ok but by the time it was dinner, Mom wasn't hungry and I was so tired. I went upstairs and crawled into bed. I was fighting to stay awake and by 8 pm I couldn't keep my eyes open any longer. I gave the remote to Mark and I laid down. Now granted before this, Mom was so cold. I had a sweater on and all the blankets and I was still cold. My stomach was in knots and I had bad cramps. when I laid down at 8 pm I fell right to sleep but woke up at 9 pm or so. I didn't know if I was going to be sick or not so I got up to go to the bathroom and brought the bucket back with me. Mark stayed up until 10 pm watching TV. I never got sick but there were times I thought I would. I slept for crap even though I was extremely tired. Mom had a fever for sure. Yesterday, Mom stayed in bed all day. I was up at 11:30 am and took Tylenol to help with the fever. I watched TV all day long with the pups right next to me. Mom's diagnoses is heat/sun stroke...ugh! Aunt Beck called in the afternoon to say hello. We chatted for an hour and then Mom was exhausted. I made my way downstairs at 5 pm and I fed the pups slowly. Meme had made soup so I had a little bit of it. It tasted good! Mark took the pups out for a walk on his own and Mom went back upstairs. He was surprised with a cutover last night so Mark worked until 8 pm. Mom watched a movie and then Mark and I watched a couple shows. I was tired so I laid down at 9:30 pm. I slept okay but not the greatest. My back was really hurting me. I couldn't get comfortable. I did manage to get a bit of sleep though. Today, Mom is just sore from laying in bed all day and my back and side still hurts. I got up at 7 am and fed the pups and then made the bed and took a much needed shower. I have been sitting in my office chair all day. I am in pain but nothing I can't handle. I am fever free now so that is all that matters. I finally ate something after 2 days of not eating. Everything is good with the stomach now. Mom is on the mend. Hopefully some good sleep tonight and I will be my bubbly self tomorrow.
Right now I am listening to my webinars for my CEUs. I need to listen to 15 of them this week. That is 30 hrs for me to get my recertification. It is a pain but it is worth it and it is free for Mom. Mark is working, Bob has been playing his game all day long and Meme has been watching TV and going outside. It is brutal out there. We are in the high 90's for the rest of the week. Mom is going to stay out of the sun for a few days! I think my body needs a good break. I will try again this weekend but I will use my head and not stay out so long.
No one is going anywhere at all. we are in lockdown. Only things that are open are gas stations and grocery stores. They now have limited hours that they are open. We have a curfew in our county. The President said that this week will be the worst. It will determine how many cases are out there. Ones who didn't know they have had it will show the signs and symptoms. This is scary stuff and nothing to mess around with. No one can go visit family and friends in the hospital unless they are dying. Everything is being done via skype now. Bob can't go to his appointments at all and basically is self quarantined due to him being high-risk. No one is going out. we are saving gas money and saving in general by not doing things but we are still dishing a lot of money out for bills. we are all doing the best we can. Aunt Beck is doing a lot of healing work on us all. I know you are watching over and protecting us as well too. Mom is thankful to both of you. I love you so much and I miss you beyond anything. To the moon and back and all the way around the world. To infinity and beyond my sweet precious son. You will forever be my hero and the wind beneath my wings. You live inside my heart, mind, body and soul. Mom lit a candle for you last night and whispered to you so I hope you heard me. I will do it all again tonight. Smile for me and I will smile for you. I know you are super busy and doing all kinds of great things where you are. I am so proud of you, Ty. I will be back tomorrow with another letter to you while I am listening to more webinars. Have fun tonight if you can while Mom sleeps. Come visit if you can in my dreams, pumpkin. For now, Mom is going to close up this letter so I can finish listening to these things. Until tomorrow comes....good night and sweet dreams later this evening.
Always, Mommy xoxoxo. Muah ❤

Dear Tyler,
Hi my sweet son! How are you doing on this Sunday afternoon? Mom is tired from a day of being outside. First it was going to the store and then home to put things away and then Mark and Mom sat out by the pool. We got in the pool for about 2 hours. Mom did laps for the 1st hour. My arms and legs are sore but that is okay. I am using muscles that I haven't used in quite some time. The sun us hot hot hot again today. Mark and Mom gor a lot of color. May call bit too much. We came inside after 3 hours though. It's hard to stay out there as the sun is so intense. Meme came out for about an hour and then went inside. Bob was only out for 30 minutes. For someone who wanted to go swimming so badly, he won't get in the pool at all. He says it's too cold. The water is 76 degrees. It's cool at first but it's nice when you get used to it. Mom is relaxing now writing to you while Mark is playing a game on his phone. Everyone else is upstairs. It is almost dinner time so it will be feeding the pups and then taking them for their walk. We will eat after that. Last night we played poker. That was fun. Meme won. I think we are playing again this evening too. It will be an early night as tomorrow is Monday and it is back to work for Mark and for Mom it is school and working on the business. No appointments this week so that's nice. No where really to go as everything is closed. 2 more weeks of this still and maybe more. No one knows at this point. I think we are all taking it one day at a time.
Mom will call Grandpa later tonight to . I promised them that I would. Mom will be going to bed early though as I am super tired. I hope to get a good nights sleep. Have fun tonight while Mom is sleeping. I know you are busy doing all kinds of good things but if you have time, come visit me please in my dreams tonight. Thank you pumpkin!
It is just a few minutes shy of 5 pm. The pups are getting restless. It is almost time for them to eat. Mom will be back tomorrow with another letter to you. I will whisper to you before I fall asleep tonight. Smile for me and I will smile back to you my sweet precious son. A candle will be lit for you later as well. Mom loves 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 inside my heart,mind,body and soul. I miss you more than words can say. Please continue to watch over us all. Thank you. Until tomorrow comes....good night and sweet dreams later.

Dear Tyler,
Hi my sweet son! How are you doing on this Saturday afternoon? Mom is doing well today! I was able to get a good nights rest and woke up at 7 am. Mark and Mom went downstairs and fed the pups and then out the door they went for their walk. Mom relaxed for about an hour and then I made breakfast for us and did the clean up. Came upstairs after, did a load of laundry, made the bed, put a few things away that I needed to in my office and then got my swimsuit on and headed out to the pool. The water was 76 degrees. It was chilly at first but after that it was beautiful. Mom swam for a long time. It must have been over 1.5 hours. It was a lot of fun. Meme and Mark were in the pool as well but Bob did not want to get in it. That was weird. we asked but he kept saying no so we stopped. We all got out of the pool, laid in the sun for about 2 hours and had drinks and snacks. Bob actually went inside and played his video game upstairs. Meme went in about 20 minutes later and Mark and Mom stayed out there. We were listening to music and just having a good day. No everyone is kind of doing their own thing. Mark is playing a video game, Meme is knitting and Mom is writing to you while I have the chance. It is 3:40 pm and after this it will be time to prep dinner and get things going. We all decided that after we eat and take the pups for a long walk, instead of just going to our bedrooms for the night, we will play a couple of games before hand. It should be fun. Tomorrow is going to be like today. Get up, eat breakfast, swim, sit in the sun all day and then have dinner and relax for the night. I think we will have a family movie night though. we are going to try to do things on the weekend with Meme and Bob because during the week we just don't have the time where Mark is working and Mom is super busy as well. It will be a nice break for us all and it will give everyone something to look forward to. We are all now under quarantine. Go out when needed and nothing after that. It is safe this way. More and more people are being effected by this virus. All public stores, hair salons, nail salons, ice cream places, etc... are shut down. Grocery stores, gas stations and Walmart are open. That is it. People are losing money like crazy. Some people say we are going into a great depression. Mom doesn't know what to think right now. It is nuts. We are just trying to stay as safe as we can. I know you are watching over us so that is a huge help. Thank you my sweet precious son. It means a lot to Mom.
Grandpa called last night. All is well there. Him and Debbie are fine. They have been going out when needed as well. No shopping for them either like they are used to. I think everyone is getting cabin fever. We are not used to being forced to stay home like this. We are used to doing what we want and when we want. I think this is the time to slow down, enjoying things before the madness starts again soon. Most places are closed for another 2 weeks. After that they will access the situation. I told Grandpa I would call him Sunday night. Haven't heard from anyone else though. I guess they are all okay. At least I am assuming so. Mom woke up to the news that the legendary country singer, Kenny Rogers passed away last night at age 81 years old. That is an icon for all of us. Mom listened to him growing up and still do. May he rest in peace for eternal life now. He will be missed. Not much us for news here, pumpkin. Mom will update you on things as I know of them.
I will light a candle later this evening when we are watching TV in bed. I will be sure to whisper to you before I fall asleep tonight. Smile for Mom and I will smile to you. I hope that you have fun during the evening and over night while Mom is sleeping. Come visit me in my dreams if you can. Thank you. I will be back tomorrow afternoon with another letter to you. I love you to the moon and back and all the way around the world. You are and always will be my hero and the wind beneath my wings. Forever you live inside my heart, mind, body and soul. It is going on 4 pm now and you know what that means.... time to prep dinner and get the night routine started. Today went by so fast! Until tomorrow comes...good night and sweet dreams later. I miss you, Tyler, my bright and shining star.

Dear Tyler,
Hi my sweet son! How are you doing on this Friday evening? It is already 4:45 pm and Mom has been in her office since 8:30 am. It has been a very long day indeed for me. I am so sorry that I didn't write to you last night but I was working on things all day after I got home with Meme and after I ate dinner I came back upstairs and worked some more. I called it a night at 8 pm and went and relaxed for about 2 hours and then crashed. Things are super busy here. Mark is still working daily. Mom is in-between studying, working on her business and also now I have to do 15 CEUs for my certification by April 1st so I don't lose it. It is crazy! Looks like it will be a quick letter to you tonight as well because if not Mom will be feeding the pups and eating dinner late again just like I have the last 3 nights.
The weather here is super hot. It has been in the 90's all week long. This weekend will be the same way. Mom and Mark are not going anywhere at all. We are going to get up, eat breakfast, lounge by the pool and swim all weekend. The pool water is 76 degrees and it is super nice! Mom is looking forward to that very much. We will BBQ both days as well. We are basically self-quarantining ourselves. We have enough food and such for the next week or so so there is no need to go out and this week there are not any appointments at all. That is a good thing. It will give me all kinds of time to catch up on studies, do my CEUs and work on my business.
It is getting worse here with the Coronavirus. We now have 3 positive cases in the county we live in. That is scary for sure. All public stores and restaurants are all closed down until the 2nd week in April. The only places open are grocery stores and gas stations. We only go out when needed. Bob had an appointment here at the house today and we cancelled it. Meme was not happy with Mom but I didn't care. Safety first for us all. We are doing our part with washing our hands, etc... well everyone except Bob. Things with him are getting worse by the day as well. Meme has no break. She is stressed out to the max. Mark and Mom really are having a hard time with him and we distance ourselves as much as we can. I know that sounds bad but when we are around him he doesn't say anything and he just sits and stares. Mom can't handle it at all. He expects everyone to do everything for him and he is capable of doing it but he is lazy and I don't tolerate that well. You know this. He also doesn't know how to give Mark and I some privacy and that bugs the sh*t out of us. we don't get much time during the week to be with one another and the weekend we can but not with him around. Meme gets it but he doesn't. My patience is wearing very thin. I really am trying but with no effort from Bob it is nearly impossible not to feel the way that we do.
I just read earlier that NH could be on the verge of a lockdown. Mom is scared that Grandpa and Debbie will not be able to come at the end of the month if things are not any better in the next couple of weeks. They can't even get their money back. Mom is praying for them and everyone at this point. We all need to do our part to stay safe and healthy. Please continue to watch over us like I know you do my sweet precious son. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
No updates for you as I don't and haven't spoken to anyone at all. No one calls Mom. That is okay. I am beyond used to it now. We have lived here for 5 months and 5 days and Christina, Marion, Charlie, Kristi, Chris, Gary, Gregg, Bean, Bonnie and a few others never call and Mom doesn't bother with them either. I gave up a long time ago. Does it hurt...yep it does but I can't change any of it so I am not going to. Maybe some day things will get better but I am not counting on it. In my eyes and heart, I feel that I will never see any of them again. It is what I have come to live with. So much for forever friends though. I don't believe in that anymore. Mom is good with it though so don't worry. From time to time I get emotional about it but then I start remembering everything and my attitude changes quickly!
Mom will be lighting a candle for you in a little bit tonight and I will whisper to you before I fall asleep. Smile when you hear me and I will smile back to you. I will write to you again tomorrow afternoon and on Sunday as well. I hope that your night is filled with all the things you have to do and things you may want to do. Come visit me in my dreams if you can. I have to get going for now though as it is way after 5 pm and the pups haven't been fed and they haven't had their walk yet. Dinner hasn't been started either. I miss you and 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 inside my heart, mind, body and soul. Until tomorrow comes....good night and sweet dreams.
