Dear agency,
I can't believe one server going out at HQ will make our system crash nationwide. And to not have a back up and be waiting on IBM to provide a new one is ridiculous. This will take days, even weeks to catch up on.

Dear DH,
I enjoyed our date today and I really hope you did too. What I enjoyed most was the 2 hours of conversation. I agree that this past year of marriage has been the hardest so far. I don't do pregnancy well and PPD is a bitch, which is why I don't understand why you and I still can't make the decision for you to get a vasectomy. Anyways, let's make our 7th year of marriage the best yet. It could be full of some big changes that will be exciting.
Love, your wife

Dear potential buyers,
We are calling you tomorrow. Please be interested still.
Signed, I need you to make us a great offer.

Dear DD1,

You are very emotional lately. And sassy. And kind of annoying, to be frank. I am glad you're going to grandma and grandpas for two days. I cannot wait until school starts again -- you need it.

Sincerely,
I also need it

Dear DD2,

We are going to have a lovely Thursday and Friday without you sister. I know you will miss her, but I'm making muffins for you to share with your daycare class and we will go out and do something fun while daddy works tomorrow night if you're not too tired.

Love,
Mama (sorry not gran)

Dear Mom:

I'm thankful for the fact that you let me use your house for a garage sale and you help me with it. But please stop nitpicking everything I choose to sell. I can't live in clutter for ever.

Signed,

Daughter whose purging everything

Dear Exh:
I still don't understand why you are driving 18 hours instead of flying. One of our daughters has a spastic bladder and the other has autonomic dysfunction and drinks 130 ounces/day - which means you need access to bathrooms for both of them. There aren't any for hundreds of miles through the desert. Literally. You have never done a road trip with them. You are the only driver. I am super nervous.
When you told me you plan to return next Sunday, instead of Monday as planned and that you are leaving Saturday at lunch time --- that's driving straight through. Yes, I can do math. I think you need to at least consider putting the girls on a plane home. I'll pick up when I land at the airport. Seriously.

Scared mom who knows 18 hours is really more like 24 with these kids - it's called reality

PS - don't lose either of them at a truck stop or in the Grand Canyon. I'm serious.
